Billets are one of the most useful types of steel ingots in the world. Generally speaking, the price of these products are all per ton and the most intuitive definition of an ingot that can be expressed is a quantity of metal produced in the casting process in the form of a specific shape to facilitate the transportation, storage, and use of the metal. Application of steel billets:
- billet
- slab
- bloom
Blooms and billets are commonly used to manufacture profiles such as rebar, wire rod, rebar (plain and ribbed), angle and stud and shield (fabric), seamless pipes, and Mannesmann. What is the difference between ingot, billet, bloom, and slab? Ingots were the first product made from iron ore. Ingots are brick-like products produced by continuous casting. The length of the ingot is equal to 2 meters and it is manufactured as the pure metal. In the article below, you can learn more about steel ingots and learn how they differ. What is a billet? One of the most popular medium-rolled steel products, billets are available in round and square cross-sections. The length of the ingot is longer compared to the ingot, which allows the ingot to be used in the production of rebar, wire rod, and belts. The width of the item is less than 15 cm. Billets are produced in the 3SP and 5SP groups, which differ as follows: 
SP3 billets have higher flexibility than sp5 billets. 5sp ticket is stronger than 3sp ticket. What is Bloom? Bloom is a long-length, large cross-section blank. Bloom is used to producing rails and shields. To produce flowers, they are sometimes used to cut the sides of the plate. What is a tablet? The slab is another steel product made from ingots. The sheet has a rectangular cross-section and a length of 4 to 12 m. It is used for the production of steel sheets and folded pipes. Ingot production methods:
- Induction oven
- Electric arc furnace
Production of steel ingots using an electric arc furnace In this method, steel is obtained from scrap, which is placed in a furnace with a crane. Electric arc furnaces are in the form of large shallow troughs when scrap and lime enter the furnace. As the electrodes are lowered, an electric current is generated which melts the metal. The temperature of the electrodes is around 4100 degrees Celsius, a high temperature that causes the metal to melt. 
Production of steel ingots using an induction melting furnace The magnetic field in this method melts the scrap and induction coils wound around the furnace to create the magnetic field and generate heat in the presence of a high-frequency current. The high temperature is transferred to the furnace and melts the metal. Ingot price Gold bars are one of the most important sectors in steel and have a great influence on the pricing of other products. The main factors that affect the price of steel bars are:
- iron ore price
- world oil price
- transportation costs
- scrap price
- Supply and demand
- The exchange rate of the product manufacturer
- Global market
Steel ingots (iron) are traded on the stock market and are one of the best commodities traded on the stock market. Among the factors that affect the price of this product, we can mention political socio-economic events, natural disasters, and ingot producers. Each manufacturer considers different prices for their products based on the quality of the products manufactured. As a result, the price of handmade iron ingots cannot be determined. As mentioned in the previous section, the prices of ingots fluctuate a lot. Therefore, it is often necessary to ask today's price before buying ingots. Knowing today's iron bullion prices allows you to buy informed and avoid possible losses. 
Billets are one of the main sections and are produced in a variety of forms. Billet ingots, sheet ingots and large ingots are different types of this product. An ingot is a rectangular block up to a maximum length of two meters, which is then subjected to other manipulations to ultimately produce iron products such as pins, angles, bars, beams, and other cold-rolled products. It got hot. Not long ago; found the price of gold bullion; this semi-finished and important product in the market; it was a very difficult and tiring job, not easy for everyone, especially the lower layers of the steel chain. Fortunately, with the help and efforts of some activists in this field and new information and communication tools on the Internet, various systems in this field make it possible and easy to know the approximate price of gold bars. Ingots are priced by weight, and ingots are produced in different grades and with different chemical compositions. Of course, depending on the quality and chemical composition of the ingot, it has a different unique weight, and after calculating the weight of the ingot, you can proceed to receive its price by weight. But the pricing of bullion is not limited to its weight. The price of gold and silver on the international market has always affected the domestic market of each country. This influence includes factors ranging from raw material prices to finished steel such as rebar, plates and various profiles. The importance of understanding price lies in this effect. Checking reliable and up-to-date sources increases the decision-making power of those active in the country's steel industry, who can take the right actions in buying or selling various products. 
billet price per ton
The billet is one of the intermediate products of rolling steel. Its price is per ton and Ingots are produced in two forms: billets and blooms. Ingots produced in billet form, also known as billet, have a round or square cross-section. The width of the billet is less than 15 cm and the cross-sectional area is less than 230 square cm, so it is mostly used for the production of steel bars and wires. Ingots produced in the form of flowers are also called ingots. Bloom's cross-sectional area is also less than 230 square centimeters, but its width is over 15 square centimeters. Bloom ingots are commonly used to make train rails, shields, rivets, cans, and beams. Steel ingots are raw materials for the manufacture of steel products. Steel There are various methods such as blast furnace (BF), electric arc furnace (EAF) and induction furnace (IMF) to produce crude steel or molten steel. For the production of steel ingots, the arc furnace method is used, i.e. arc furnace. The electric arc method produces ingots by first pouring scrap iron into this furnace, followed by a mixture of sponge iron, lime, coke, bentonite and other additives. Then take a sample, blow oxygen into it and turn it into molten steel. The molten mixture produced after slag removal is sent to the casting unit. The molten material is then poured into an intermediate container and converted into frozen ingots by spraying cold water along the path of the copper mold. Ingots are available in ST37 steel standard 3SP and 5SP qualities. 3SP and 5SP belong to the category of simple carbon steels that cannot be heat treated. Hence its use in situations where high strength is not expected. 3SP is more flexible and is used in industries that require bending and stretching. 5SP steel bars have poor elasticity and are used in stable industries that are not exposed to force and pressure. 
By adding other elements to the structure of the steel, the properties of the steel can be changed to a certain extent, making it have the characteristics of high-temperature stability and higher corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and finally made of alloy steel this method Products Alloy steel is said to have a wide range of mechanical properties (toughness), heat treats them to improve mechanical properties including hardness and tensile strength, used to manufacture various auto parts, rollers, crankshafts, gears, and bolts. The exact definition of ingot types and differences billet The Ccm method is used all over the world to produce ingots or ingots in more scientific terms. If the ingot is produced directly from ccm for rolling consumption, it is called ccm ingot or billet. fabric If a billet is produced in a larger size and after undergoing the rolling process, it is produced to the required size for section rolling, the billet is called a stock. Of course, this ingot used to be called bloom, and as merchant literature changed, it was renamed fabric ingot. bloom Bloom ingots are ingots made from ingots cut from the sides of a slab or from a whole slab. Because the bar size used for the plate is over 150, it is erroneously referred to as a size larger than 150 blooms. If all ingots are made in the same way, there is no difference in their process and name. 
What types of ingots are needed to produce different types of rebar? Produces small and large rebar. More important than ingot size is the carbon content of the ingot and its analysis. Of course, this only applies to standard rib bars. Alloy steel bars have their own standards. For rebar sizes 14 to 40, use ingots with a carbon content of 30 to 35. For smaller sizes, low-carbon ingots are used due to the need for more softness and elasticity. There is no difference between 150 and 125 or 130 bars for rebar production, some works use and charge 150 bars per rolling line, others also use 125 bars, and some are more modern than both. This means that blooms are also used to produce rebar, depending on the design of the rolling line. A new high-tech line using both ingots in a larger, more modern production might use 120 or 130 ingots for small ingots and 150 for large ingots. Some lines are designed in such a way that they allow the production of small bars of 150 bars, such as sizes 8 and 10, or even coils. In our country, the old rolling stock only uses 120 or at most 130 ingots to produce rebar and cannot produce 150 ingots. Generally, 100, 120, 125, 130, 150, and 160 bars are defined as ingots, and 180x180, 200x200, 250x250, and other bars with higher dimensions are defined as blooms, which are mostly used in the production of industrial rebar. Currently, more than 10 rebar production units are capable of using both types of ingots, and they also use 150 ingots. The difference between bloom and billet Obviously, the terminology and terminology for Blum bullion and billet differs slightly in market and exchange filings. 1- Bloom's modified gold bars are used more for industrial rebar. 
In addition, in some countries such as China and Ukraine, due to the high steel production, the lack of production balance and the capacity of the ccm machine, the large steel ingots are in some cases produced according to the customer's requirements. 180 and above, rolled later in one step is converted to bars of size 160 down. The above ingots have high density and are widely used in industrial applications. 2- Ingot 3sp or st44-2 carbon rods up to 22 pieces, mainly used to produce angles and knobs or in some cases for small rebars. 3- Basically, 5sp ingots are mainly used to produce size 25 rebar Ingots of Gr60 quality are used for the production of rebar in gauge 25 and above. 4- For coil production, you must use steel ingots of quality 5sp, Rst34, 1006, and 1008. In general, the national steel chain can be divided into the following four layers: 1- Tier 1 producers associated with the mining industry. Input: Minerals Output: Iron ore, iron pellets, sponge iron, and concentrates. 2 - Gold Bar Producer input: Exit Level 1 and Scrap Output: Various ingots including billets, blooms, ingots, or slabs. 3 - Manufacturer of the final product input: 2-level exit 
Output: Final products ready for distribution, such as long profiles, including rebar; beams and studs, and so on. 4- Final seller and warehouse owner (iron seller) Input: 3-stage output Output: Facilitate and smooth the sales process by adding capital and communicating with customers and consumer markets.
