From October 1st on we will introducing a new Steel type, the S450GD, which will be replacing the structural steel S350GD and HX500 we have been using until the present moment on our cylinder, both on our stiffeners and Bodysheets,. This change will lead to a major improvement on the structural quality of our Silos and will be reducing their ultimate weight,
The benefits of our S450GD upgrade are:
-Better structural quality: S450GD steel results in a higher yield strength,which is reached by reducing the overall weight of our silos without compromising their structural quality. This steel will be used to manufacture bodysheets and stiffeners increasing its endurance by improving its mechanical properties, which now will upgarded from 350N/mm2 to 450N/mm2. This will also reduce the amount of weight and decrease the cost of logistics and assembly.
-A Positive Impact on the supply chain. The transition to S450GD steel contributes to a more robust and efficient supply chain, ensuring greater availability and narrowing down the purchasing references.
For a period of time, both types of steel will coexist in our production line to ensure you the deliveries. We appreciate your understanding and support, as we put in place this major improvement which will offer long term benefits.
At Symaga, we remain committed to the continuos improvement of our products. The implementation of a higher quality structural steel is a part of the annual Product Development Plan, aligned with our goal of optimizing storage solutions for our customers.
