How to achieve a new and clean process line
When planning an installation of a new stainless steel process pipe line it is important to understand the importance of using the best materials and techniques to ensure it is clean when installed.
With the tubes tacked together they can be inserted into the orbital weld head and welded fully, with a weld data log file printed at the end of the weld to display the exact deviations that occurred during the weld cycle.
Also at this point visitors can see a 'Pulled Tee' being welded to a tube stub and the weld data log file for this weld can be transferred to a PC and printed on a full size printer.
When fully welded, the samples can then be taken to have the oxides removed and the passive layer restored.
The same machine can then be used to apply a permanent identification mark on the material surface.
Once cleaned, the welded samples can be inspected internally to ensure the weld profile is consistent and repeatable internally.
Following this tour, visitors can then take a further look at the other products on display such as tungsten electrode grinders, weld purging equipment and manual welding equipment.
