Pipes manufacture
The technologies of pipes manufacture from the following materials are widely used:
- aluminum alloys: 6.0-80.0 mm and wall thickness 0.5-2.5 mm;
- titanium alloys: 10.0-42.0mm and wall thickness 0.5-1.2 mm;
- stainless steel: 3.0-50.0 mm and wall thickness 0.3 - 1.5 mm;
- copper: 5.0-10.0 mm and wall thickness 0.5 - 1.5 mm;
JSC “KnAAPO” executes the following actions:
- cutting of tubing;
- chemical treatment of tubing and its elements;
- bending of tubing:
manual bending;
by specialized machine TG -1; - by NC machine:
TGSP-24 - up to 24mm;
TGSP-40 - up to 40mm; - welding of the tubing:
soldering of tubing by HDTV-sets;
soft soldering of tubing (on a base of tin);
hard soldering of tubing (on a base of silver);
automatic welding of capacitances;
spot and roller welding (manholes of different dimensions); - manufacture of tubing elements:
expansion of a tube on the SIT-1specialized machine;
extraction of T-branches on the SIT-2specialized machine;
steeply curved fittings - on PGFP 20/100; - ball connections - on universal press;
- rolling-off and expansion of tubes into nipple;
- strength and leakage test of all spectrums of products, its packaging.
The enterprise bought the RB 90 CNC Swiss-made tube bending machine tool for bending of 25-90 mm tubes.
