Are the environmental advantages of titanium welded round pipe outstanding?
Mar 26, 2024
Titanium seamless pipe production process is complex, the conventional use of three-roll or multi-roll mill, drawing machine for a certain specification of the billet for a number of times rolling or drawing, and ultimately through the reduction of the diameter of the wall to produce a seamless pipe. This process has low production efficiency and materialization rate. Titanium seamless pipe from titanium sponge to pipe, material waste, into the material rate of only about 50%, can not be large-scale mass production, production cycle is relatively long.
Titanium welded pipe is produced by automatic continuous production line through cold bending, welding, online heat treatment, diameter straightening, non-destructive testing, air tightness test and other processes. From titanium sponge to welded pipe, the material utilization rate is generally around 80%. If titanium coil is used as raw material, the material utilization rate is above 95%. With the rapid development of domestic titanium industry and the increasing maturity of welding technology, the production efficiency of titanium welded pipe will be greatly improved, quality stability, consistency and productivity will be higher. We can cut the required length according to customers' requirements. Short delivery time, high material utilization, lower unit cost than seamless tube.
Titanium seamless pipe is generally produced by rolling or drawing process. A large amount of rolling oil and drawing oil is used in the production process, which seriously pollutes the production site. After rolling and drawing of titanium tubes, it is necessary to degrease and pickle the grease and dirt on the internal and external surfaces of the tubes, and the pickling process causes great pollution to the environment. In order to ensure the health of the operators and environmental protection, it is necessary to increase the protective equipment and measures, thereby increasing capital investment, and accordingly increase the cost of product production. Titanium welded tubes are continuously mass-produced through automated production lines with stable quality and high production efficiency. During the production process, there is almost no pollution to the environment except for certain energy consumption such as water and electricity.



With the deepening of the understanding of titanium welded pipe, the application of titanium welded pipe in the petrochemical industry will be recognized by the market, the application scope will be more and more extensive, and the market share will be more and more large. Although the investment cost of titanium welded pipe is higher than that of ordinary fluid transportation pipe, its cost is lower than that of titanium seamless pipe. From the analysis of the service life and maintenance cycle of titanium welded pipe, the investment cost of titanium welded pipe can be compensated in the use of titanium welded pipe, titanium welded pipe can reduce the production cost by decreasing the number of regular maintenance, reducing the time of downtime, improving the quality of the product, and extending the service life of the pipe. Especially in recent years, the global titanium industry is in a slump and the competition is fierce. The price of titanium welded pipe has been at a low level. Petrochemical industry enterprises choose titanium welded pipe preliminary equipment investment costs are low.
Titanium welded pipe production process is as follows: titanium strip uncoiling → shear welding → live sleeve storage → titanium strip cleaning → tube formation → welding → weld eddy current flaw detection → predetermined diameter → online annealing → fine diameter / straightening → eddy current flaw detection → laser diameter → online coding → fine diameter → ultrasonic flaw detection → fine diameter / flat head → gas tightness test → finished product inspection → packaging and storage.
