Steel plate ultrasonic flaw detector
The device is controlled by microcomputer, which can automatically identify the flaw in the steel plate, give alarm, locate and mark according to the set standard of flaw detect and inspection; besides, it can comprehensively evaluate the inspection result, determine the flaw grade and print the inspection report forms as well. It has the characteristics such as easy operation and high inspection efficiency.
Steel plate ultrasonic flaw detector
Adopt the standard software function of Vision LE contrail controller and German original controller for industry only. Three cutting torches can work synchronously and cut the bevel rapidly and precisely, offer the eligible slabs for the next working procedure
Edge milling machine
Cutter head can fluctuate automatically according to the plate shape, that's to say, on the basis of plate roughness the cutter head can adjust its position automatically so that it can cut the same shape and dimension of bevel on both sides. In addition, the milling speed and quantity are adjustable according to steel grade, wall thickness and the shape of bevel. The coherence of cutter head and plate clamping system guarantees the invariable parameters during the entire milling process; accordingly it ensures the milling quality and lays a good foundation for the success of subsequent welding.
Pre-bending
According to different specification, pressing the two edges of the steel plate with the matched moulds to make round arcs that have some curvature, lest the straight edge influencing the roundness of the pipes.
Forming
Numerical control system adopts the international advanced CAD MAN of Belgium LVD Company. There are 16 numerical control shafts on the main and the assistant devices. Through the inspection feedback of the four grating rulers, the four main cylinders can be controlled accurately and act synchronously, all the above ensure the forming quality
End squaring & tack welding machine
The semifinished pipes will be seam-linked and backing-welded, all the procedure is continuous. All the above ensures the good pre-weld quality and the high efficiency
Manufacturing Process:

It has the characteristics such as easy operation and high inspection efficiency.
External weld
The device is controlled by microcomputer, which can automatically identify the flaw in the steel plate, give alarm, locate and mark according to the set standard of flaw detect and inspection; besides, it can comprehensively evaluate the inspection result, determine the flaw grade and print the inspection report forms as well. It has the characteristics such as easy operation and high inspection efficiency.
Finishing machine
Circular tube finishing machine——Adopt three control methods such as automatic pressure control, automatic position control and manual control. Be operated neatly and conveniently. The roundness of the pipes can be ensured for that the pipes are formed with relevant arc mould as per various pecifications.
Straightening machine
The machine possesses the accurate micro-inching function, can adjust the micro-inching devices and V-shaped former block as per different specification. Besides, through removing the movable framework to the relevant position to press the pipe asper the curve situation can ensure the straightness.
Ultrasonic online flaw inspection
Controlled automatically by the micro-computer, the inspection blind area is less than 200mm; it can automatically identify the flaw in the weld and the heat effect area, give alarm and locate and mark the flaw, besides, determine the flaw grade and print the inspection report forms as well.
Hydrostatic test
