PRODUCT CATEGORY

Direct Forming to Square ERW Tube Mill

Direct production of square and rectangular tube from flat strip.

Direct Forming to Square ERW Tube Mill

Progressive corner pre-bending forms an open square or rectangular section before HF welding and sizing. The process reduces unnecessary deformation, roll investment and changeover time for a designed size range.

COMPLETE PRODUCT INFORMATION

Product overview and technical information

Direct forming to square does not first roll the strip into a round tube. Flat steel strip is progressively roll formed into an open square or rectangular section, then high-frequency resistance welded and sized to the target profile in one continuous route.

Process Features

  1. 01

    One roll set can cover a designed range of square and rectangular tubes, reducing roll purchasing cost by about 50%.

  2. 02

    Rolls can be changed without removing the main shafts or stands, shortening changeover time by about 40%.

  3. 03

    Only the four corners are progressively deformed, eliminating unnecessary deformation and reducing total energy consumption by about 15%–20%.

  4. 04

    The load on each stand is lower, reducing wear and helping extend equipment service life.
