Abstract:
Co-workers of Acroni d.o.o. in cooperation with domestic and foreign institutions of knowledge have been designing/developing a new generation of high quality HSLA steel PROTAC 500 in form of plate for the armour protection. New generation of steel PROTAC 500, for the pose of NATO, represents a world-class product. Its primary purpose is to protect the lives and property of both natural and legal persons or entities. It has excellent mechanical properties, including standard technological characteristics, such as good tensile properties, excellent impact strength at low temperatures, hardness and deflection as well as ballistic testing, where the PROTAC 500 armoured plate is made sccording to NATO standards as it has lower required thickness of protection in comparison to the competition. The reduction of required thickness affects mass and has great importance especially for vechicles with an integrated PROTAC 500 plate which has an important energetic and environmental aspect.
