    In Brazil, the sugar-energy industry plays an important role in the economy, as it is responsible for 2% of the Brazilian GDP. Among the products made available by this industry are sugar and ethanol. To obtain these products, it is necessary to extract the juice from sugarcane (the main raw material), which takes place in the milling stage. The materials from which the mill components are made must have some characteristics to make the milling process efficient. Studies on alternative materials are being carried out in order to reduce costs in the maintenance stages. One of the materials analyzed is Steel-Hardox, which has a positive cost-benefit ratio, as it has the characteristic of extending its useful life. This article aims to study and present the benefits attributed to the application of Hardox steel in the construction of mills where the use of Hardox steel demonstrates that it has the potential to cause a reduction in downtime for maintenance, contributing to a positive cost-benefit relationship, since that with fewer stops there is a reduction in production costs.
