Pickling
Developing breakthrough technologies to address new demands of the steel market, Fives has engineered pickling solutions for various applications:
- Push pull pickling lines: carbon steel
- Continuous pickling lines: carbon steel
- Long product (wire, bar & tube) pickling systems
- Pickling systems for hot annealing and pickling lines (HAPL): stainless steel
- Pickling systems for cold annealing and pickling lines (CAPL): stainless steel
Custom engineered and optimized according to customer requirements, Fives pickling solutions feature a robust, reliable and safe design using advanced materials to ensure minimum chemical consumption and an environmentally responsible operation.

Fives utilizes advanced 3D modeling and stress analysis to ensure superior quality design for its push pull pickling lines. For challenging applications Fives' push pull pickling lines ensure superior oxide removal from hot rolled coils.

Fives' custom engineered continuous pickling lines for advanced high-strength steels feature turbulent bath and spray pickling and intelligent chemical control, providing optimized consumption and waste, as well as an intuitive operator interface.

Long product pickling lines for wires, bars, tubes feature state-of-the-art technology and autonomous control. They are fully automated for maximum throughput, with a process step tracking system and process repeatability.

Fives' pickling systems ensure the proper surface treatment of stainless steels. Autonomous control guarantees reliable and repeatable processing that is safe and efficient.

Fives’ solutions for strip pickling systems for cold annealing and pickling lines use a pre-pickling stage to fracture the oxide layer in order to produce the high quality surface finish that end users expect.
