In-line Seam Annealing Systems

The seam annealing process is dedicated to the normalization of the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ).
In many cases the welding line must be annealed after the welding process to prevent a failure point and provide a uniform metallurgical results.

The seam annealing process is dedicated to the normalization of the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ). In many cases the welding line must be annealed after the welding process to prevent a failure point and provide a uniform metallurgical results.

Both the American Petroleum Institute (API) and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) specify that on certain grades of pipe, the weld seam needs to be processed in order to ensure that no untempered material remains.

ADVANTAGES

  1. Independent heating units for increased operational flexibility.
  2. Possibility to treat pipes from 30 to 660 mm OD by adopting the new linear coil with reduced width.
  3. Precise temperature management thanks to closed loop PID system comparing the requested set point with the actual temperature read by the pyrometer.
  4. Independent power control for each heating head (PID).
