The wire rod superficial processing and the quality and environmental criterion

Purpose: Purpose of the presented paper is meant to enlight the common points between the application of practically well-matched methods of investigation and opinion of quality and usage of the modern technical, technological or organizational solutions, in this issue in the technological processes of preparation the wire rod surface to the plastic processing. Design/methodology/approach: Applied for the survey has comprised the adequate integrated expert methods of technological processes’ analysis and opinion, as well as the integrated opinion of technological processes using the Integrated Risk Ratio. Findings: of the led survey are as follows: the realization of quality and environmental policy in accordance with the proposed model results in the improvement of analyzed productive processes of steel wire rod, and in consequence - to their optimization both in the range of view of products’ quality and in the aspect of quality of environmental influence. Practical implications: Can refer to the substituting the chemical etching of wire rod by taking advantage of the technology, taking into account the method of mechanical removing of cinder. Originality/value: of the presented paper has been achieved by application of the new methodology covering the usage of integrated opinion of technological processes, including the Integrated Risk Ratio.
