Kawalla, Institute of Metal Forming, University of Mining and Technology, Freiberg, Germany With the best lightweight potential of all metallic construction materials, magnesium primarily helps to increase energy efficiency over the lifecycle of automotive and non-automotive industrial products. Yet to assess overall energy efficiency, the production process must also be taken into account. This paper provides an insight into the energy-efficient production of magnesium strips up to 0,8 mm in thickness based on twin-roll casting and strip rolling on an industrial scale, as developed at the Institute of Metal Forming at the Technical University Bergakademie Freiberg (Germany) in cooperation with MgF Magnesium Flachprodukte GmbH (Germ any). The technology of twin-roll casting and strip rolling on a four-high reversing mill is described.
