With 40 years of experience, Fontijne
Grotnes is active in the design and
manufacture of pipe end and full-length
pipe expanders. The company has recently
won an order for a full-length pipe expander
from a Chinese pipe manufacturer. This
order is a good development for the
company’s aim to be more active on the
Chinese LSAW pipe market.
At Tube China, Fontijne Grotnes will
promote its newly developed straightening
system. The company will also present
details on its improved horn and drawbar
system, which features patented connec-
tions with a cylinder and expander head for
mechanical expanders.
The newly developed straightening system
guarantees straight pipes within ½-API and
DNV standards. It is designed in such a
way that it can also be mounted on existing
expanders. This process will improve the
straightness of the pipe in all directions,
where other systems only control the
straightness in the plane of the weld seam.
Tolerances for ovality and straightness of
pipes are becoming increasingly important
to the later laying of pipes in the field.
Fontijne Grotnes is capable of improving
the horn and drawbar system of competitive

Emmedi, the welding and annealing
division of the Saet Group, will present its
latest solid-state welder to the Far East
market. Recently shown at Tube 2008
in Düsseldorf, this 250kW output power
welder is based on a Mosfet inverter and
can work up to 450kHz.
The welder power supply is a three-phase
full bridge thyristor rectifier. The inverter is
a current fed type, composed by the correct
number of modules (rated 25kW of power
each) connected in parallel.
The modular structure and a complete
diagnosis system enables quick and easy
maintenance in order to reduce production
stops.
To deal with technical problems without
the requirement for onsite presence, Saet
Group offers a special service in remote
mode. Called teleservice, it allows the
company’s technicians to operate from
its premises directly into the welding unit
installed at the customer plant.
A global partner for induction with local
sales and service support, Saet works with
Indian and Thai partner companies, IEI
and ISE. The company also has a Chinese
division to assist regional customers in
finding and delivering the best solutions.
