FORMULA  Fe + C MATERIAL DESCRIPTION

Steel is an iron-carbon alloy (from 0.1 to 2.1 percent). The steel plate is used to construct caps, boxes, fittings, reflectors, surface coating and as a protector and furniture in areas where heat radiates.

It is difficult to establish the physical and mechanical properties of steel because these vary with the settings in their composition and the various thermal, chemical or mechanical treatments, which can be achieved steels combinations suitable for many applications characteristics, there may be mentioned some generic properties:

• Its average density is 7850 kg / m3.

• Depending on the temperature the steel can contract, expand or melt. • Very tough, especially in some of the alloys used to make tools material. • Relatively ductile. • It is malleable. • Allows good machinability on machine tools before receiving heat treatment. • It can be welded easily. • Corrosion is the biggest disadvantage of steel as iron rusts with ease by increasing its volume and causing surface cracks that allow the progress of oxidation until piece completely consumed.   EXTRACTION PROCESS The stretched netting consists of a metal plate with holes in a diamond pattern. These voids are created without wasting material because it is made with a tool that presses and stretches the material at the same time without soldering
