Working in partnership, Bronx International
and Abbey International have recently
been awarded several high profile projects
across the global industry. With over 100
years of industry experience, Bronx/Taylor-
Wilson is a provider of finishing solutions
with over 3,500 global installations, while
Abbey manufactures a range of advanced
ERW pipe mills.
Bronx/Taylor-Wilson has recently won
new orders from Baoshan Steel, China,
for the supply of three API heavy-duty
pipe straighteners and one API high-
pressure hydrostatic pipe tester. Two of
the straighteners are the Bronx series
6.CR.11 machine, which is specially
designed for straightening high yield API
pipe at diameters up to 431.8mm with wall
thickness at 31.8mm.
Both machines will be used for inline
operations, with one straightening hot
pipe at temperatures above 600°C.
The BTW series 6.CR.11 straightening
machine excels in handling the stringent
straightening demands for high yield tubing
and casing throughout the world.
The third straightener will be a specially
designed Bronx 6.CR.12 and one of
the largest six roll straighteners built
since Bronx installed a 610mm machine
in Germany over thirty years ago. The
6.CR.12 will be used for straightening
diameters up to 457mm with a wall
thickness of 55mm and yield strengths
approaching 1130 MPa.
The hydrotester will address the alternative
pressures that are required within the
stringent demands of the growing OCTG
market. The machine will be capable of
testing API 5CT product up to Ø 339.7mm
with pressures up to 140 MPA.
Other recent orders for Bronx/Taylor-Wilson
include a 273mm hydrotester at V&M
Star in Houston, USA. The company also
supplied two hydrotesters (for 244.5mm
and 139.7mm) at different Ipsco plants in
the USA, as well as a 339.7mm tester in
Chengdu, China.
