Engineering services
for roll forming
ATI Ravesh Company was founded in Iran in 1996 to
provide engineering services for the roll forming industry.
The business began by manufacturing and installing HF
welder systems and automation systems. Due to a change
of circumstances in its country, the main approach of the
company became the provision of critical services for
manufacturers.
As a result, the company has obtained valuable
experience in vacuum tube rebuilding and proficiency in all
sections of HF welders. The company is ready to rebuild
power tubes throughout the world, especially in the Middle
Eastern countries.
New fields of activity are identified by monitoring the
market and understanding demands for quality and speed
in manufacturing. one such activity is the flying cold saw
system – completely designed in-house to meet the
requirements of the customer. a twin-head flying cold saw
is now under development for large diameters.
The company states that its main purpose is to help
manufacturers achieve more success through an increase
in quality rather than quantity.

Gantry-style material handling
system for pipe ultrasonic tester
THE energy industry consumes an
enormous amount of tubular products.
Given the strict quality standards, new
and used pipes must be thoroughly
tested before being used in the field.
In the ‘full body phased array
ultrasonic’ testing method, several
testing attributes are performed at one
time, requiring a handling system and
integrated controls to effectively position
and test a wide range of pipe sizes.
Haven Manufacturing has expanded
its material handling and systems
control knowledge into the oil and gas
pipe testing market.
In cooperation with ultrasonic
electronics producers, Haven has
designed a gantry and rail system that
will support a full body phased array
ultrasonic system. The capacity of this
system is from 2.5" to 20" diameter,
and up to 48ft length.
The sequence of
operation begins
with measuring the
length of each pipe, to
determine the end-of-
pipe location. Awalking
beam transfer device
then positions the
pipe in the test station,
while simultaneously
removing a tested pipe to
an exit table or conveyor.
In the testing station, the pipe is
rotated at a controlled rpm to match the
specified linear speed of the ultrasonic
tester carriage.
The combination of rotation and
carriage linear speed creates the
desired test helix pattern for a given
pipe diameter and wall thickness.
Multiple servo drives control the
synchronisation of the test cycle.
Manipulating up to 24,000lb of pipe
at one time requires both precision and
robust construction.
