In the production of extremely thin walled welded tubes the coil is often drawn to shape rather than rollformed. With the latest version of Copra ® RF, it is also possible to integrate drawing dies within a rollforming tool set. This enables analysis of the complete forming process and the prediction and optimisation of the final tube properties.

southeast Asian region include seamless and welded pipe, butt weld fittings, forged flanges, forged high pressure fittings, and outlet fittings. Other complementary products supplied include a wide range in materials as diverse as carbon, low temp and alloy steels, stainless steel, duplex and nickel alloys. This wide ranging stock and the continued support from many major international mills enable DK Jones to supply complete packages of material from stock or on short delivery times.

› The Babcock portable pipe bevelling machine from DWT

Especially designed for boiler walls, DWT offers very special applications for onsite operations with flexible and low weight machines. In practice it has been proven that weld preparation of tube ends considerably influences the quality of the welding junction. For applications that require welding of tubes with a high wall-thickness and for orbital welding technology, the welding engineer currently requires a perfect and effective weld preparation by use of mechanised weld preparation.
