SSAB is presenting a variety of free apps this year at bauma Munich that can help customers become more productive. The apps are available on the App Store and Google Play. They help customers do the math and add up the savings when using SSAB’s high-strength steels Hardox wear plate and Strenx performance steel.

Popular apps that have been developed and enhanced over the years include WearCalc and WeldCalc. WearCalc helps users compare different Hardox grades for their particular application and calculate the increase in service life and payload when upgrading from mild steel to high-strength steel. The app can also be used to predict erosion wear, sliding wear and impact wear.

WeldCalc helps welders optimize the process of welding Strenx or Hardox steel, smartly and safely. The user simply inputs the parameters, and in seconds can see the recommended machine settings, temperature, heat input and a risk analysis. 93f2a00de1f5669c Org
