Some specific aspects in the improvement processes related to I-beams production, especially related to the conversion of classical to the universal rolling mills stands are presented in this paper. One of practical solutions in the a.m. conversion is described in some more details, as well as some of better designs in the variety of I-beams, concerned with parallel flanged ones. So called INP I-beams have tapered flanges v.s. parallel flanges concerned with parallel flanged I-beams, which are very difficult to be produced on classical rolling mills stands, but much easier and better to be produced on so called universal rolling stands. Since the universal stands are expensive and is very difficult to fix (incorporate) them at the existing rolling mills with classical rolling stands, then a conversion of classical to the universal rolling mills stands is the cheapest satisfactory solution. One of the a.m. solutions is presented in this paper as well.
