Factors: Heating Speed Bending Temperature Cooling Speed Mother Pipe Material Properties
Bending Machine: Air-ring Inductor Quench ring
PB450-18” Induction Bending Machine
PB400-16” Induction Bending Machine
Profiles: All materials that can conduct electricity are bendable, almost regardless of the profile shape! Pipe dimensions from 16 mm to 457,2 mm (18”)
Ω – Spool reduced with 8 welds and better flow
Examples Of cost reducing designs Ex. 1. Traditional method, with welded standard pipes. 6 welded joints Ex. 2. Induction bends, with long straight ends. 1 welded joint Ex. 3. Induction spool. 0 welding Ex. 4. Induction bends, with long straight ends. 2 welded joints
Heating Speed:
Bending Temperature/temperature tolerance Material Grade Carbon material (870º – 930º) Duplex / Super Duplex (1050º – 1120º) Mother pipe material certificates Wall thickness Induction coil
Cooling Speed:
Motherpipe Material Properties Carbon steel / Stainless steel Seamless / longitudinal welded Weld cap (G48) Segregation / Intermetallic phases in the middle of the plate thickness
Post Bend Heat Treatment (PBHT) Heating of steel Capacity: 3,5 tons Temperature 580°C to 1150°C
Carbon steel - Tempering (SML 360 / 415) - Quenching and Tempering (SML 415 / 450) - Normalizing (SML 360)
Duplex / Superduplex - Wall thickness - Pipe manufacturer - Seamless / Seamwelded - Bending radius
PBHT – Increasing Cost - PBHT - PBHT Batch test - Blasting / Pickling - Single bends = more welds
NORSOK M-630, DNV OS-F101, ISO , TR 2000 TR 1969 TR 1120 And a lot of other specifications Specifications: How do we ensure the quality of the bends?
