Seamless tubes are tubes without seams or welds. Seamless steel tubes are considered to be able to withstand higher pressures, higher temperatures, higher mechanical stress and corrosive atmospheres. 1. Manufacturing Seamless steel tubes are manufactured using a number of different methods. The method used depends on the desired diameter, or ratio of diameter to wall thickness, required for the…
Read MoreCross rolling is a rolling method between longitudinal rolling and cross rolling. The rolling of the rolled piece rotates along its own axis, deforms and advances between two or three rolls whose longitudinal axes intersect (or incline) in the same direction of rotation. Cross rolling is mainly used for piercing and rolling of pipes (such as the production of…
Read MoreThe cross-rolling piercing process is the most widely used in the production of seamless steel pipes, and was invented by the German Mannesmann brothers in 1883. The cross-rolling piercing machine includes two-roll cross-rolling piercing machine and three-roll cross-rolling piercing machine. The capillary quality defects produced by cross-rolling and piercing of tube blank mainly include inward fold, outward fold, uneven…
Read MoreSurface processing of seamless tubes (smls) mainly includes: steel tube surface shot peening, overall surface grinding and mechanical processing. Its purpose is to further improve the surface quality or dimensional accuracy of steel tubes. Shot peening on the surface of seamless tube: Shot peening on the surface of steel pipe is to spray iron shot or quartz sand shot…
Read MoreThere are two categories of factors that affect the quality of seamless tubes: steel quality and rolling process factors. Many factors of the rolling process are discussed here. The main influencing factors are: temperature, process adjustment, tool quality, process cooling and lubrication, removal and control of sundries on the surface of rolled pieces, etc. 1. Temperature Temperature is the…
Read MorePiercing is the first process of deformation of hot-rolled seamless steel pipe, and its function is to pierce the solid tube blank into a hollow capillary tube. Due to the surface defects or eccentricity (uneven wall thickness) of the threaded capillary, it is difficult to eliminate or reduce it in the subsequent deformation process. Therefore, the quality of the…
Read MoreThe uneven wall thickness of the seamless tube(SMLS) is mainly manifested in the phenomenon of uneven wall thickness of the spiral shape, uneven wall thickness of the straight line, and thicker and thinner walls at the head and tail. The influence of continuous rolling process adjustment of seamless tubes is an important factor leading to uneven wall thickness of…
Read MoreAfter the quenching and tempering treatment of seamless pipes, the parts produced have good comprehensive mechanical properties and are widely used in various important structural parts, especially those connecting rods, bolts, gears and shafts that work under alternating loads. But the surface hardness is low and not wear-resistant. Tempering + surface quenching can be used to improve the surface…
