Problem of excessive ellipticity in welded steel pipes
Thread Content
During on-site construction or factory processing, pipes may have seams or an excessive degree of ellipticity, which leads to misalignment of the inner surfaces when the pipes are welded together with other pipes, fittings, and equipment. Strong alignment is usually required; do any experts have better ways to handle this? Is there any convenient machine for rounding pipe ends?
There are mouthparts of various specifications available online
During on-site construction, alignment fixtures were also used for fitting and welding. But now in the factory, forced alignment is not allowed; therefore, before assembly, it is necessary to find a way to round the pipe ends. I’m wondering if there is a convenient method for rounding them that can improve efficiency
