Manufacturing Process
1. Material Selection
High-quality carbon steel coils are carefully selected and inspected to ensure chemical composition and mechanical properties meet specified standards.
2. Precision Forming
Selected steel coils are formed into cylindrical shape using precision roller sets, ensuring consistent roundness and dimensional accuracy throughout the process.
3. High-Frequency Welding
The pipe edges are joined using high-frequency induction welding technology, creating a strong, reliable weld seam with minimal heat-affected zone.
4. Heat Treatment
Normalizing heat treatment is performed to enhance mechanical properties, relieve internal stresses, and improve overall pipe performance.
5. Finishing & Quality Control
Pipes undergo polishing, cleaning, and comprehensive inspection including dimensional checks, weld quality testing, and surface finish verification to meet international standards.
