2.  BASIC DESIGN DATA

Design of the proposed line is based on following specification:

Item Value
Pipe Diameter Range Φ114mm – Φ273mm
Wall Thickness 3.0mm – 10.0mm
Strip Width Range 360mm – 870mm
Strip Strength Q195 – Q345B or ≤600MPa
Production Speed 10–30 m/min
Power Supply 380V / 50Hz / 3Ph (customizable)
HF Welding Power 300 – 600 kW (depends on thickness)
Welding Method Solid-state high-frequency induction
Cutting Type Hot flying saw / Cold saw (servo-based)
Length Tolerance ±3mm
Operator Requirement 4–6 persons per shift
Line Footprint Approx. 70m × 6m

Equipment Advantages 

  • Stable Construction: Heavy-duty welded frame ensures long-term durability

  • Intelligent Control: Full PLC control with alarms, diagnostics, and remote support

  • Quick Changeover: Supports multiple profiles (round, square, rectangular)

  • Excellent Weld Quality: Precision-matched HF system ensures solid welds

  • Energy Efficient: Inverter-controlled drives reduce power consumption by over 20%

  • Modular Design: Optional upgrades for stackers, cutting units, inspection systems

 

Welding Principle  

 

Using high-frequency induction heating, the strip edges are rapidly heated to a plastic state, then squeezed together by pressure rollers to form a continuous weld.

  • Advantages: Smooth weld seam, small heat-affected zone, no filler material needed

  • Key Parameters: HF power adjustment, coil alignment, squeeze pressure

  • Burr Removal: Optional internal and external scarfing improves final product finish

 

 Operating Procedure 

  1. Ensure all systems (electric, hydraulic, water) are operational

  2. Load coil → Shear & weld → Accumulate strip → Forming & welding → Cooling → Sizing → Cutting

  3. Check roll wear, blade sharpness, and induction coil daily

  4. Monitor welding temperature, strip tension, and sizing output via HMI

  5. Shutdown sequence: stop line → cut power → close water/air systems in order

  • double cone heavy duty Uncoiler
  • big size pipe making machine
      • 8inch pipe milling saw cutoff
      • 10inch round pipe
  • landing type horizontal accumulator
  • 273 steel pipe making machine

Selection Advice for Customers


  1.  

    • Define main product specs (e.g., Φ168, Φ219) when configuring forming stations

    • Wall thickness range determines required HF power and saw type

    • Export customers should specify voltage, control language, and certification needs (e.g., CE)

    • Optional upgrades: online seam inspection, laser OD measurement, automatic stacking systems

10inch ERW tube Mill FAQs

Pipe out-of-round

Check whether the unwinding tension is balanced and confirm that the guide mechanism and the loop tension control device are operating normally.

Incomplete weld or slag

Low HF power or oxidized strip edges, Increase power, clean strip edges

Inaccurate cutting length

Servo system misalignment, Re-calibrate saw axis and encoder

Excessive burr

Worn scarfing blade or low pressure, Replace blade, increase pressure

Uneven pipe stacking

Conveyor sync issue or limiter fault,Adjust transfer and stopper units
