expanding. Stresses inside the material are therefore released during the expanding process and cause bending of the pipes in all directions. The new straightening machine avoids these problems and instead ensures constant mill production for size and mechanical properties.

for distribution of high efficiency power, oscillating type OD based cutting tools, inline straighteners (19 roll), and SG cast stands for excellent damping properties. An online stretch-reducing mill is also available for small diameter tubes. Gallium supply double mandrel uncoilers, shear and welders, horizontal accumulators, end facing machines, tube push pointers, draw benches and tube straightening machines. The company has supplied equipment to 29 countries including USA, UK, Japan, Australia, Brazil, Iran, Egypt, Malaysia, China, Taiwan, Thailand, Oman, Jordan, Zimbabwe, Pakistan and many others. The GH Group offers an entire range of modern high frequency power supplies and equipment for induction heating applications, from MF IGBT inverters to HF Mosfet inverters This complete range allows the use of the most suitable technology in every induction heating application, avoiding the need for obsolete and low efficiency technologies. In the area of tube induction welding, which often requires frequencies up to 500kHz, the natural, most reliable and efficient component is the Mosfet transistor. This technology is provided by the GH Group’s latest developments in variable frequency and automatic load adjustment. The company has launched Transithermic ® generator solid-state welders, which can weld any tube specifications allowing for any tube diameter, thickness and material. These machines provide flexibility and economy through a reduction in downtime and scrap material. The GH Group has headquarters in Spain, with subsidiaries in India, Germany, China, South Korea, Brazil, France, Mexico and Argentina. The company can provide equipment and local support in every geographical market. GH Group Spain Stand A16 Website : www.galliumindia.com

The new straightening system guarantees straight pipes within API and DNV- standards. It is designed in such a way that it can also be mounted on existing expanders. The grease system in the expander heads was also improved to withstand the consequences of using higher material grades. This process is completed by the company’s equipment for pre- and post- washing installations. Fontijne Grotnes BV has been supplying expanding equipment since the 1960s, when it introduced a mechanical expander for LSAW-pipes. › A pipe expander including new straightener, expander heads, draw bar for larger diameters and several toolsets
