The table above shows the format of the cost model that estimates hot rolled coil conversion costs from carbon steel slab, on a traditional continuous hot strip mill [not a reversing mill]. The rolling mill product is assumed to be steel coil of standard width (typically ~1.8m wide) and of ~1-3mm gauge.
This model is available for purchase from SteelOnTheNet. However, it should be understood that any further use of the model is likely to require
- a knowledge of upstream and / or downstream cost structures
- further adaptation for relevant slab costs, for labour and energy costs, scrap prices, for depreciation charges etc
- adjustment for local operational circumstances.
