Continental to Acquire Magna Electronic Radar Engineering Business

German auto parts supplier Continental Group has announced that the company is considering the acquisition of Magna Electronics ' radar engineering business in Ottobrunn, Germany. The company said that the transaction is expected to be concluded on July 1, 2011, which will play an important role in enhancing the competitiveness of the Continental Group's product portfolio and maintaining the company's leading position in the radar sensing system business.

Under the acquisition agreement, the radar engineering business of Magna Electronics in Ottobrunn will be controlled by the Continental Group in the future. At the same time, the 11 engineers under this business will also be employed by the Continental Group.

Dr. Andreas Brand, business leader of ADAS (Advanced Driver Adaptive System), a passive safety and advanced driving suitability system of the Continental Group's Chassis and Safety Systems Division, said: “In the field of automotive driver assistance systems, Continental is a leading global supplier. The consolidation of the business of Nasdatronics has consolidated and strengthened our market position in the radar field."

Magna Powertrain and Magna Electronics president Joachim Hirsch pointed out: "The sale of radar engineering business will make Magna Electronics free more resources, And can focus on developing camera-based automotive safety and security systems."

Heat Treated Steel Bar And Tube

HEAT TREATED STEEL BAR AND TUBE

Heat treated steel bar is produced by heating and cooling in different temperature based on the steel grades to improve the steel bar mechanical properties or machinability for various industrial applications. Heat treated steel bar includes annealed steel bars, Normalized Steel Bar, quenched and temper qt steel bar.

Annealed Steel Bar has better ductility and lower hardness, which can be easier to be machined. The annealing processing is usually widely used for steel grade with higher carbon content above 0.5%. However, some low carbon steel also requires to do annealing for special usage such as 20CrMnTi gear steel. For some special material such as 20CrMnTi gear steel and GCr15 such bearing steel, spheroidizing annealing is often required.

Normalized steel bar sometime is also one kind of annealing processing. It mainly changes the grain to remove the impurities in steel and improves the strength and hardness. For some hot rolled steel bars, to keep the basic mechanical properties, normalizing is often used.

Quenching and Tempering, abbreviated as Q&T is a king of processing that strengthen or harden steel bars by heating the materials and then cooling in water, oil or other liquid medium, that rapidly the change from austenite to perlite to get the proper properties for various usage. The quenched & tempered steel bar materials are usually with carbon from 0.30% - 0.60%, it is widely used as merchant bars in components of various machines.

Qt Bar

Our advantages on producing heat treated steel bars:

1) Big stocks of hot rolled round bars or wire rods as raw materials

2) Wide range of Cold Drawn Steel Bar sizes: from 10mm to 150mm

3) Different cold drawing medias powder or oil to get different surface

4) Straightening machines to get better straightness up to 0.5mm/m

5) Grinding and polishing machines to get better roughness upto 0.4um

6) Heat treating furnaces to adjust the mechanical properties

7) Full sets of testing equipment to test the sizes, mechanical properties and microstructure.

8) Multiple packages to avoid broken packages and anti-rusty
