The Differences Between High-Frequency Welded Pipes and Straight Seam Welded Pipes

图片
High-frequency welded pipes , also known as HFW pipes, are manufactured from hot-rolled coils. The production begins with the coils being shaped by a forming machine, after which high-frequency electric currents are applied. This method utilizes the skin effect and proximity effect of the electric current to heat the edges of the pipe until they melt. When the molten edges come into contact, they are fused together under pressure via squeeze rollers, resulting in a solid, continuous pipe. The advantage of high-frequency welded pipes lies in their ability to produce pipes with a smooth, high-quality seam, resulting in excellent mechanical properties. They are often used in applications where strength and reliability are paramount, such as in oil and gas pipelines, structural supports, and various other industrial sectors. Straight Seam Welded Pipes Straight seam welded pipes  encompass a broader category of welded pipes, which includes both double-sided submerged arc weld (DSAW) pip...

The Difference Between Seamless and Welded Steel Pipe

图片
 1. Seamless Steel Pipe  The typical method for making  seamless tubes  is the Mannesmann method, in which a rod-like billet is heated to a high temperature, and then compressed from the periphery and perforated at the center using a tool called a "perforating mandrel". This manufacturing method is suitable for mass production. It can make large diameter steel pipe and is also suitable for thick wall steel pipe. Because there are no joints, the original properties of the material can be maintained. However, in terms of manufacturing methods, the dimensional accuracy is not very good. 2. Welded Steel Pipe  The material of  welded pipe  does not use bar billets but uses steel strips (coils). For example, for seam pipe welded with resistance welding, the process is to use the uncoiler to continuously pull out the steel strip and make it cylindric. The joint part of the cylinder is changed into a high-temperature state with a large current, and the joint i...

The   spiral pipe   size inspection are: the wall thickness, outer diameter, length, curvature, ovality, end face groove and obtuse angle of the spiral pipe, and the cross-sectional shape of the special-shaped steel pipe. 1. The commonly used inspection tool for steel pipe wall thickness is the wall thickness micrometer. During inspection, use a qualified micrometer to measure the wall thickness of the steel pipe one by one. The end side measurement of the spiral pipe should be no less than 8 points. The modern seamless steel pipe production unit uses ultrasonic equipment to detect and record the full length of the steel pipe wall thickness. 2. The tools used for the inspection of the outer diameter and ovality of the steel pipe are calipers and vernier calipers. When measuring, the caliper or vernier caliper should be perpendicular to the axis of the steel pipe, and the steel pipe should be slowly rotated to measure the maximum and minimum points of the section where the stee...

SSAW Pipe

图片
The strength of   SSAW pipe   is higher than LSAW pipe, which can produce welded pipes with larger diameters from narrower billets, also it can use billets of the same width to produce welded pipes with different diameters. However, compared with the same length of LSAW pipe, the seam length of the SSAW pipe is increased by 30~100%, so the produce speed is low. Therefore, most of the welded pipes with smaller diameters use straight seam welding, and most of the welded pipes with large diameters use spiral welding. SSAW pipe is divided into two types: automatic submerged arc welded steel pipe and high frequency welded steel pipe. 1. Spiral seam automatic submerged arc welded steel pipes are divided into two categories: A-type pipes and B-type pipes according to the pressure of the conveying medium.

The Difference between Straight Seam Pipe and Spiral Pipe

图片
The difference between   straight seam pipe   and   spiral pipe : 1.From the perspective of processing: straight seam pipe are formed by bending steel plates of a certain width into cylinders and then welding them to form. The equipment is simple and the productivity is high. Spiral pipes are made by winding steel plates of a certain width into a tube, and then welding them. The equipment is complicated. At the same time, because the welds are much longer than the straight seam steel pipes, the productivity is relatively low. 2. From the perspective of strength: the internal stress of straight seam steel pipe is distributed along the weld seam after welded, while the internal stress of the spiral steel pipe after welded is evenly distributed in the axial and radial directions, which can partially offset the pressure. So in terms of pressure resistance, spiral steel pipe is stronger. Here is the difference between straight seam pipe and spiral pipe from the perspective of ...
