12inch 325mm ERW Tube Mill

The 12-inch ERW tube mill is an automated high-frequency welding system designed for the production of large-diameter round and shaped steel tubes (such as square and rectangular). This production line is suitable for continuous forming and welding of carbon steel and low-alloy steel strips. It is widely used in oil and gas pipelines, structural tubing, pressure pipelines, bridge foundation piling, and other applications, meeting the global demand for high-quality, medium-thick wall welded pipes.

Equipment Name

Function Description

1

Hydraulic Coil Car + Double-Cone Uncoiler

Fast coil loading and automatic decoiling with tension control, supports heavy coils.

2

Shear & Butt Welder

Connects two steel strips via automatic shearing and welding to ensure uninterrupted production.

3

Accumulator

Stores steel strip during coil changes to avoid line stoppage and maintain continuity.

4

Forming Mill (Roughing + Finishing)

Gradually bends the flat strip into a round tube; roughing pre-forms, finishing refines.

5

HF Induction Welder + Cooling System

Induction heating and welding of strip edges; water cooling protects equipment and product.

6

Inner & Outer Burr Removers

Removes welding flash to improve pipe appearance and internal smoothness.

7

Sizing & Straightening Section (with Round-to-Square)

Adjusts pipe dimensions, supports square and rectangular tube production.

8

Flying Saw Cutting System

Cuts pipes at preset lengths; supports hot saw, cold saw, or milling cutter.

9

Output Conveyor + Stacker

Automatically aligns, stacks, and discharges finished pipes for further processing.

10

Centralized Electrical Control (PLC+HMI)

Controls the entire line, supports one-button start, fault alarms, and data records.

Function

Sizing Mill

Multiple roll stands for radial shaping and sizing with quick-adjust design.

Round-to-Square Unit

Converts round tubes into square/rectangular ones by changing only sizing rolls.

Straightening Device

Corrects axial distortion caused by welding/forming to improve straightness and ovality.

Surface Polishing Unit

Light pressing/polishing rolls improve appearance, suitable for decorative/furniture-grade tubes.

Independent Drive System

Each stand is driven by variable frequency motors for segmental speed control and easy upgrades.

Advantages:

  • Dimensional accuracy within ±0.5mm

  • Improved product straightness and form

  • Compatible with downstream processes like coating, galvanizing, perforation

  • Suitable for structural, mechanical, construction, transport, and furniture applications

 

Finishing Auxiliary Equipment Description   

Equipment Name

Function Description

Pipe Straightening Machine

Corrects bending, waves, or twisting formed during welding or cooling using 6 or 7 rollers with adjustable pressure.

Hydrostatic Tester

Injects pressurized water (up to 23MPa) into the pipe to test for leaks or burst defects.

Pipe End-Facing (Milling) Machine

Mills pipe ends flat and burr-free for flange connection or girth welding; includes automatic clamping and dual-head milling.

Eddy Current Tester

Non-destructive inspection using eddy current sensors to detect surface or near-surface defects, especially in welds.

Automatic Pipe Bundling Machine

Automatically aligns, counts, bundles, and wraps finished pipes. Often includes lifting table, steel strapping, and film wrapping systems.

Selection Advice for Customers


  1.  

    • For export or high-end pipe markets, it's recommended to include hydrostatic testing and eddy current inspection systems.

    • For pipe end processing requirements, add the end-facer for precision preparation.

    • Straighteners and bundlers are standard for large-diameter lines and improve finishing automation.

    • All machines can be integrated into a centralized control system for digital traceability and smart management.
