Straightening of LSAW steel pipe
Straightening is an important process in the production of LSAW steel pipes. Especially for oil casing and oil and gas pipes of API standard with high quality requirements, special pipes for machinery and equipment.These kinds of steel pipes not only have strict requirements on the steel grade and weld quality, but also have high requirements on the straightness of the steel pipes.Because the deviation of straightness is directly related to the processing and connection of the pipe end thread and pipe hoop of the oil casing and conveying pipe, as well as the distortion and deformation during the use of the pipeline. There are two processing forms of pipe end threading - pipe rotation and tool rotation. Most of the threading processing adopts the method of pipe rotation, which requires higher straightness of the steel pipe. Affected by the internal stress of the steel pipe, the thermal influence of the welding seam, the eccentricity during forming, the tightening pressure, and the ...
