Orbital Welding Stainless Steel Pipe

Now offering a full range of machines from pipe and tube cutters to weld preparation tools to orbital welding equipment all orbitalum products are engineered and built to the most rigorous standards under iso 9001 2008.

Orbital welding stainless steel pipe.

Each unit has 7 6 pipe welds 25 4 pipe welds and 19 3 pipe welds. With various wall thicknesses but mostly between 0 2 and 3 2 mm for several reasons it may be necessary to apply filler metal in orbital welding procedures. The weld quality depends upon having a reasonably clean source of argon for backing and shielding gas. As a result the company decided to integrate stainless steel into its systems and use orbital welding equipment wherever possible.

In most cases the tubes are made of austenitic stainless steel but nickel alloys as well as titanium and its alloys can also be found. The widespread use of autogenous fusion orbital gas tungsten arc welding gtaw in the high purity semiconductor and biopharmaceutical industries combined with modern steel refining technology has made it both desirable and practical to supply type 316l stainless steel with a restricted range of elemental sulfur. Stainless steel is the best material considering life cycle cost sanitation and physical properties such as strength for the water system operator. They exhibit the excellence that german machines are famed for including high precision robust designs powerful drives and ease of operation.

I know nothing about orbital welding other than it costs a lot for the equipment. The pipe is sch 10 316 stainless steel. Successful orbital welding is also dependent upon using high quality tubing material. The range covers diameters from 1 6 to 170 mm.

The term orbital is based on the latin word orbis which means to circle. The job that has prompted this inquiry has the potential for 2 units a month for the foreseeable future.
