•Setuptheacceptancelevelofdefectbyeddycurrent test the acceptance level is set up according to customer requirement or general norms.

•Processandproductionvalidationdimensional test to verify the strip width, tooling and inner scarfing process. Flattening/drift expanding test according to different steel grade and also different norms to check the quality of the welding.According to customer requirement, we can also perform specific test 3.1 according to EN 10204.

Production process design and development

Cold-drawn tubes (DOM)

•Choosetheproperhollowsizethe hollow size should be chosen so that the reduction rate is located in the proper range.The reduction rate is calculated with the following formula: Reduction rate=(100-((W1 / W2)*100))*100%W1: kg per meter of finish sizeW2: kg per meter of hollowsW1: =(OD1-T1)*T1*0.02466W2: =(OD2-T2)*T2*0.02466

•Selectthepicklingmodebased on the surface requirement, a phosphating or saponification process is performed.

•Choosethedie/Mandrelthe shape of the die/mandrel is a critical controlled characteristic. For TTC (ready-to-use) products, special dies are required.

•SetuptheStressRelieving(SR)processparameters according to different customer requirement, a different heating time, cooling time and cooling speed is set up.

•Verifythedrawingstressduring cold drawing, the mechanical stress should comply with the following formula:P/F=K < δsP: hollows drawing force (kgf)F: finished size section area (mm²)K: stress of drawing (kgf/mm²)δs: yield strength of finished tube (kgf/mm²)

•Processandproductionvalidationtesting is performed before/after cold drawing to verify the reduction rate. Test before/after SR to verify the furnace setting parameters. Process and production validation though statistic evaluation of the parameters.

Comparisons between Cold-Drawn Welded (CDW) and Cold-Drawn Seamless (CDS) tubes

The advantages of cold-drawn welded tubes when compared to cold-drawn seamless tubes can be summarized as: •Bettergeometry(ODandIDroundness)• Improvedqualitysurface(lessdefectafterpaintingand improve fatigue life)•Tightereccentricityandwallthicknesstolerances(the eccentricity is 3% max instead of 8%-10% normally guaranteed from seamless tubes)•Highertubesafety(tubesarecontrolled100%byultrasonic test and eddy current test)•Bettertoughnessatlowtemperature

For these reasons Marcegaglia China always recommend to use CDW tubes when the thickness permits it; indeed in Europe and USA, most cylinders are produced with welded tubes.
