Abstract

In the conventional process for the production of a double-oriented electrical steel sheet, the preparation steps are complicated and the manufacturing cost is very high. Nevertheless, the magnetization characteristic B.sub.10 is lower than 1.85 Tesla and the final sheet thickness cannot be reduced below 0.30 mm. According to the present invention, by strictly controlling the secondary recrystallization temperature and performing a third cold rolling in the same direction as the rolling direction of the first cold rolling, the magnetization characteristic B.sub.10 can be increased above 1.88 Tesla and the final sheet thickness can be reduced to 0.20 mm. Moreover, a double-oriented electrical steel sheet having an excellent shape (flatness) and a much smaller thickness deviation in the longitudinal direction of the product can be produced on an industrial scale. Therefore, this product can be effectively used as a core material of a large-size rotary machine or in a small-size static magneto-electronic device.
