  • The historical development of flange

    The flange of the casting is the first time in 1809 by the British Irish tjaart (Erchardt) proposed, until the early twentieth Century was gradually being used to promote the flange. In 30s, our country began to make use of the casting and so on flange tube, tube casting such as iron pipe, copper sleeve, cylinder liner, bimetal steel back copper sleeve and so on. In the heat resistant steel roller, some special steel seamless tube blank, paper machine drying drum and other aspects of production, flange casting method is also very effective. At present, the system has a standard flange highly mechanized and automatic casting machine, has built mechanized mass production workshop pipe flange. Almost all the cast alloy can be used for American Standard casting flange, flange castings minimum diameter up to 8 mm, the maximum diameter of up to 3m, casting the maximum length of up to 8m, the flange casting weight range for a few tens of thousands of cattle (oregano against a few kilograms to more than and 10 tons). Because of flange casting, liquid metal is in the case of rotating mold filling and solidification, so it has the characteristics of flange casting: liquid metal free surface can form a cylindrical hollow in the mold, so that they can be cast in the casting hollow without core can greatly simplify the production process of pipe sleeve. Casting, the casting process is greatly simplified, high productivity and low cost; because the standard flange force generated by the rotation of the liquid metal, can improve the ability of filling metal casting flange casting process, so some poor fluidity of alloy and thin-walled castings are available flange casting due to flange force; the role of improving the feeding conditions, gas and nonmetallic inclusions also easily discharged from the liquid metal, so the flange casting organization is compact, the shrinkage hole (porosity), gas The utility model has the advantages of few defects such as holes, inclusions, good mechanical properties, etc. the utility model can eliminate or greatly save the metal consumption of the gating system and the riser, and the metal utilization rate is high.

  • How to choose fasteners for flange connection

    When selecting the fasteners for flange connection, the operating pressure, operating temperature, medium type and gasket type should be taken into account. Gasket’s type and operating pressure, operating temperature, are directly related to the strength of the fastener material requirements. For example, Japanese standard flange low toxic medium pipeline Spiralwound gasket sealing connection, although the pipeline operating pressure and temperature is not high, but because of the spiral wound gasket to form initial seal than the pressure, which requires fastener loads is also large, Therefore, in this case, it is necessary to use high strength alloy steel. Alloy steel studs shall be made of high quality steel. The material should be added after the letter A, such as 35CrMoA, 25CrMoVA according to the structure of different bolt can be pided into six hexagon head bolts and studs (also called stud) two, and the stud is pided into two kinds of harness and harness. Six angle head bolts: often with the national standard flange and non-metallic gasket for ease of operation conditions. Six corner bolts are commonly used materials BL3 or Q235B; Stud bolt and flange with the use of American Standard: often harsh conditions in operation conditions, which, because of changes in shape without type stud on the harness, the bearing capacity is strong. Instead of stud type harness is relatively weak capacity. The nut material is often determined according to the bolt material that fits with it. Under normal circumstances, the nut material should be slightly lower than the bolt material, and to ensure that the nut hardness is lower than the hardness of about HB30.

  • The distinction between forged flange and cast flange

    Flange manufacturing process, including forging and casting two processes, the two of them in the end what is the difference? Different in craftsmanship Forging flange process: forging is the metal heated to soften the state, through the external force hit, the formation of the required shape. Casting Farah process is: casting is the metal melt after the liquid into the mold in advance to make it cooling forming, casting process industry called Fansha. Product quality is different Forging flange than the cast flange its strength is relatively high, the quality is better, the general low-quality pipe will be used to connect the casting flange, high-quality pipeline forging flange for the connection. Use the different range Forged flange quality is better, the use of high-quality pipeline, can play a sufficient performance, is used in low-quality pipeline is of no use. Casting flange can only be used in 16Kg, normally used in 10Kg or 6Kg of the pipeline. Temperature requirements In addition to pressure requirements, the temperature can not be too high or too low. There is no general specification, but the important pipeline is recommended to use forging flange, such as some high temperature difference or pipe vibration place, casting flange quality may cause broken, crack, leakage and so on. Casting blanks due to the advantages of small margin in some unimportant occasions can also be used. Forged flanges do not have these defects, high-quality pipe installation is very common.

  • Method of Making Large Diameter Flange

    The manufacturing method of large diameter flange is usually made of steel plate cutting, cold bending or rolling, and then it is machined by large vertical lathe. The standard size of large diameter and the size of the standard are in accordance with the standard specifications. In the process of making large diameter flange, the production equipment of steel plate cutting method is the most simple, the investment is small, and the material utilization ratio is low. It is also very simple for standard size setting. Cold bending method is the first blank forging billet, and then cold bending into the arc section, annealing stress after heat treatment, the whole circle in the vertical to the shape and size of the design process. In fact, the whole process is a cooling and bending process, but in this process need to pay attention to the temperature and the degree of bending. The material utilization ratio of the rolling process is high, and the subsequent machining allowance is smaller than that of the steel plate cutting, but it is restricted by the equipment. At present, the maximum diameter of flange manufactured by this method is only 4m.

  • How to judge the flange was corroded

    Flange in the use of industrial structures, mainly to improve the role of the connection, and to keep the seal of the pipeline no leakage, but many of the national standard flange after the use of a period of time will appear their own corrosion aging, which lost the effect of sealing, It is very necessary to do a regular anti-corrosion test on the flange. Here we share the process of measuring the corrosion of the flange. First of all must be sure that the flange to its regular maintenance and testing, after corrosion, usually the performance of the flange wall thinning, the emergence of local pits and pits. For the American standard flange internal corrosion causes and methods need to follow a certain way and principle, can now use at home and abroad more extensive flange corrosion detection method is the leakage flux method and ultrasonic detection method. Ultrasonic ultrasonic wave detection method is the use of ultrasonic pulse reflection principle to measure the thickness of the wall after corrosion. The basic principle of the magnetic flux leakage method is based on the high permeability of the ferromagnetic material, the permeability of the flange corrosion defects is much smaller than the permeability of the flange, Magnetic field lines are mostly distributed through the steel pipe, when the magnetic field lines are evenly distributed; when the flange inside the defect, the magnetic field lines are bent, and a part of the magnetic field leakage out of the steel pipe surface. Detection of the magnetized flange surface to escape the leakage flux, you can determine whether the defect exists. In addition, the probe will detect the ultrasonic pulse to the inner wall of the flange, the probe will first receive the reflection pulse from the inner surface of the pipe wall, and then the ultrasonic probe will receive the reflection pulse from the outer surface of the pipe wall. The pulse and the inner surface reflect the pulse The distance between the rows reflects the thickness of the pipe wall. Elbow in the actual test need to follow the actual situation and instructions, according to the ultrasonic method to detect a good way to test. The use of ultrasonic testing also applies to other metal structural parts thickness measurement and metal properties.

  • The main factors affecting the corrosion of the tube sheet

    The impurities, salts, gases and microorganisms in the industrial cooling water will cause corrosion to the tube plate and weld. Then the main factors affecting the corrosion of the tube plate: (1) the composition and concentration of the medium: the influence of the concentration is different, for example, in hydrochloric acid, the greater the concentration, the more serious the corrosion. The corrosion of carbon steel and stainless steel in the sulfuric acid with the concentration of about 50% is the most serious, but when the concentration is increased to more than 60%, the corrosion decreases sharply; (2) impurities: harmful impurities, such as chloride, sulfide, cyanide, ammonia, etc., which can cause serious corrosion of the tube plate in some cases; (3) temperature: corrosion is a chemical reaction, the temperature is increased by 10 degrees C, corrosion rate increased by about 1~3 times, but there are exceptions; (4) pH value: the smaller the general pH value, the greater the corrosion of the tube plate; Source: China Tube Plate Manufacturer – wilsonpipeline Pipe Industry Co., Limited (www.wilsonpipeline.com)

  • Detection of Tube Plate

    Tubular heat exchanger in production, tube plate and tube welding by manual arc welding, weld shape in the presence of different degrees of defects, such as depression, porosity, slag, weld seam stress distribution is not uniform. This means that we need to do some testing work in the production process. In the detection process of tube plate, the main indexes are holes, diameter tolerances, roughness of hole, burr, slotting position and so on, for the double sheet detection process, pay more attention to the hole, two hole tube plate matching degree is very important. General CNC drilling can be guaranteed. Relative to the thick plate, more than 300mm of the hole, the verticality of the hole is very important, these large diameter thick plate, the need for more sophisticated tools and equipment, special processing center in Longmen will be more and more widely used.

  • Why do stainless steel pipes rust?

    Stainless steel refers to the resistance of air, steam, water and other corrosive medium and weak acid, alkali, salt and other corrosive medium corrosion of steel, also known as stainless acid resistant steel. In practical applications, the corrosion resistance of steel is often referred to as corrosion resistant stainless steel, and the chemical resistance of the medium corrosion of steel called acid resistant steel. Due to the difference in chemical composition of the two, the former is not necessarily resistant to chemical medium corrosion, while the latter are generally non rust. The corrosion resistance of stainless steel depends on the alloy elements contained in the steel. The basic elements of stainless steel, nickel, molybdenum, titanium, niobium, copper, nitrogen, etc., in order to meet the needs of various applications of stainless steel structure and performance requirements. Stainless steel is easy to chloride corrosion, because chromium nickel chloride is collocated elements, elements will be collocated to form stainless steel corrosion exchange assimilation. Stainless steel pipe rust, may have the following reasons: 1, the use of chloride ions in the environment There is a wide range of chloride ions, such as salt / sweat / sea / sea breeze / soil, etc.. Stainless steel pipe in the presence of chloride ion environment, corrosion quickly, even more than ordinary low carbon steel. Therefore, the use of stainless steel pipe has the requirements of the environment, but also the need for regular cleaning, remove dust, clean and dry. This will give him a “improper use” The United States is an example: an enterprise solution with a container containing a chlorine ion of the oak, the container has been used for nearly 100 years, the 90s plan of last century replacement, due to insufficient material using modern oak, leakage due to corrosion of stainless steel container for 16 days after the replacement. 2, no solid solution treatment The alloying elements did not dissolve into the matrix, resulting in low alloy content and poor corrosion resistance. 3, inherent intergranular corrosion This kind of material without titanium and niobium has the tendency of intergranular corrosion. The addition of titanium and niobium can be reduced to intergranular corrosion. From the point of view of metallography, a thin chromium film is formed on the surface of the stainless steel tube containing chromium, which is separated from the oxygen in the steel from corrosion. In order to maintain the corrosion resistance of stainless steel pipe, steel must contain more than 12% chromium. Used for welding occasion, low carbon content makes precipitation near the weld heat affected zone of carbide minimized, and carbide precipitation may lead to intergranular corrosion of stainless steel pipe in some environments (weldingerosion).

  • The process of forging flange

    The production process flow of forging flange: the process of forging process is composed of the following procedure, which is to select the high quality steel billet, heat, shape and forge to cool down. The forging process has a free forging, die forging, and tire forging. In the production, press the mass of the forging parts, the quantity of the batch of different forging methods. Free forging productivity is low, processing surplus is large, but the tool is simple, universality is large, so it is widely… Forging flange is a flange in mechanical performance is one of the best products, its raw material is commonly tube billet, and then after cutting to constantly pounding, to eliminate the segregation of steel ingot defects, osteoporosis, etc. Price and mechanical properties are higher than normal casting flanges. The flange is the part that connects the pipe to the pipe and the valve. It is also useful for flanges in the import and export of the equipment, which is used to connect the pipe to the pipe by connecting the pipe to the pipe. It’s an accessory accessory for the pipe. The forging flange is mainly made of carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel. The main criteria are national, electric, American, German, and Japanese. The main anticorrosion treatment is oily and galvanized. Manufacturing process flow: The forging process is usually composed of the following processes, namely, the selection of quality steel billet, heating, forming and cooling. The forging process has a free forging, die forging, and tire forging. In the production, press the mass of the forging parts, the quantity of the batch of different forging methods. It is widely used in forging simple pieces and small batches of forging parts. The free forging equipment is equipped with pneumatic hammer, steam air hammer and hydraulic press, which are suitable for the production of small and large forgings. High productivity, easy operation, easy mechanization and automation. The size of die forging is high, the machining allowance is small, and the fabric of the forging is more reasonable, which can further improve the service life of the parts. The basic process of free forging: when forging, the shape of the forging is gradually forged through some basic deformation process. The basic process of forging and forging is upbold, long, piercing, bending and cutting. Upset upsetting is the operation process that reduces the height of the raw material and increases the cross section. This process is used for forging gear billets and other disc shaped forgings. The heading is pided into full heading and partial forging. The length of the shaft is increased by the length of the billet, the forging process of the reduction of the section is usually used to produce the spindle such as the lathe spindle, the connecting rod and so on. The forging process of punching holes through holes or holes in the blank. The forging process that bends the blank to a certain Angle or shape. Twist the process of turning a part of the billet into a certain angle. The forging process of cutting down the raw material or cutting head. Second, the die forging The die forging is known as the forging of the model, which is placed in the forging of the forging machine which is fixed on the die forging equipment. The basic process of die forging: material, heating, pre-forging, finishing, finishing, cutting, trimming and blasting. The common technique is to upset, pull, bend, punch and form. The commonly used die forging equipment has die forging hammer, hot die forging press, flat forging machine and friction press. Generally speaking, the forging flange is of better quality, usually through die forging, the crystal structure is fine, the strength is high, and of course the price is more expensive. Whether casting flange or forging flange are commonly used in manufacturing methods, see the need to use the strength of the components, if the requirements are not high, you can choose to turn the flange.

  • Application of Duplex Stainless Steel in Oil and Natural Gas

    In recent years, duplex stainless steel has not only been widely used in major oil companies, the main pipeline system development, and is the main material for offshore oil production and transportation. Standard duplex stainless steel in the sweet, wet, acid service environment performed well. While ordinary carbon steel due to high internal corrosion rate, although the use of preservatives can be used to prevent external corrosion, but can not effectively prevent internal corrosion. Not only that, at 50 ℃ above the ambient temperature, but also may lead to stress corrosion cracking (SCC), so duplex stainless steel also gradually replaced the 300 series stainless steel. With the increase in the concentration of H2S in the transport of oil and gas, along with the gas temperature, pressure and pipe temperature increases, super duplex stainless steel began to use for piping systems, valves, heat exchangers, pressure vessel oil and gas equipment. When the oil industry gradually turned to high temperature, high pressure engineering, super duplex stainless steel will be more used. The general pipeline treatment system, will use 200 ~ 1 000 t super duplex stainless steel. In addition, the super duplex stainless steel can also be used for low pressure conveying system, submarine conveying pipeline. However, due to the higher price of duplex stainless steel, the promotion of its products affected. The advantages of duplex stainless steel are the following: · Yield strength is greater than the general austenitic stainless steel l times, and a good shape plastic toughness, the same design stress can reduce the wall thickness of 30% to 50%; · Excellent resistance to stress corrosion, in the chloride ion environment, it can solve the salient stainless steel difficult to solve the outstanding problem; The most commonly used 2205 duplex stainless steel corrosion resistance is better than 316L austenitic stainless steel, super duplex stainless steel in acetic acid, formic acid and other media can replace high alloy austenitic stainless steel; · Good resistance to localized corrosion, wear corrosion and corrosion fatigue resistance. Better than the alloy content of austenitic stainless steel; * Linear expansion is low, close to carbon steel, suitable for connection or composite with carbon steel. The typical duplex stainless steel is 2205 (22Cr-5Ni-3Mo) and 2507 (25Cr-7Ni-4Mo) type, the most widely used 2205, the oil and gas industry has been laying the length of oil and gas pipeline has more than 850 km, of which about 400 km belong to offshore oil field, the vast majority of 2205. Ferritic – austenitic duplex stainless steel (DSS) has a high strength and good resistance to chloride localized corrosion and stress corrosion. However, it should be noted that duplex stainless steel in the acidic environment, there are still some restrictions. Because the experimental study shows that it is more sensitive to the SSCC, the actual use should pay attention to the environment pH and stress levels.
