Power Plant Components (new)
- Modern fabrication technology with automatic and redundant quality control
- Automated quality assurance procedures
- 3 autarkic robot systems to cut and weld (TIG/MAG) pipes of all steel qualities from DN65 to DN1200 up to 12m in length with a wall thickness up to 60mm
- State-of-the-art sensor technology monitors welding process quality using the following three physically independent systems:
- 3D camera measuring the welded joint
- Amperage, voltage, wire feed and gas flow rate monitored at 100 Hz range
- Welding result additionally monitored by a thermal camera
- Preparation for hot wire welding
Production Line (new)
- Machining of pipes from DN 20 to DN 150 on a new production line
- After automatic measuring, pipes are cut into required lengths by a circular saw with controlled feed and speed
- A new type of circular milling cutter is creating burr-free intersections in a 2nd operation
- A mobile robot cell welds nozzles
- Automatic cutting, drilling and milling system with an accuracy of one tenth of a mm
- Automatic mechanical marking of pipe components
