Popis: The fabrication process of nonoriented electrical steels comprises casting, hot rolling, cold rolling, and final annealing. The development of new technologies for the fabrication of hot band offers new possibilities. In this paper, we will shortly describe the similarities and differences with respect to the evolution of microstructure (grain structure) and texture along the conventional processing route and thin strip casting. We will point out the most relevant features at the different processing steps, which are important for the optimum texture and microstructure of the finally processed material. Thereby, we will regard ferritic FeSi steels, where no homogenization of the microstructure appears due to the austenite–ferrite phase transformation.
