The welded open-end fitting is tilted beyond the allowable limit; the issue of reshaping it using heat
Thread Content
For perforated connectors, fixtures are generally used for fixing them during welding; even so, it is easy for the horizontal alignment of the connector flanges to be out of spec after welding. On containers where requirements exist regarding the surface roughness, spot welding must be used instead of fixtures during welding, and the horizontal alignment still tends to be significantly off spec. In workshops, heating the components with fire is usually followed by using guide chains and hammers to adjust their alignment. . . . I would like to ask if GB ASME has any regulations or requirements regarding such matters
Can stainless steel be grilled too? Does forced alignment not affect weld quality?
I’m just worried it might cause problems, that’s why I’m seeking advice
That’s how it’s done at the moment; I just think it shouldn’t be done, so I’m asking if there are any relevant regulations
