Metal tube production line – by rollforming and laser welding
Metal tube production line – by rollforming and laser welding. Complete technology from one experienced supplier.
Detailed line configuration: available on request adapted to customer needs
Rollforming: All tools are developed by rollforming-simulation with the finite element method to have a minimal mechanical stress in the product and a non-damaged tube surface by maximal process stability. Tool quick-change for short product change time is realized by carrier system.
Welding: By laser-beam without supplementary material. Seam tracking. Spot diameter adaptable by different optic configurations.
Quality control: Continues measurement of tape width and tube diameter. Continues inline seam control by Internal Crack Observer. Various possibilities for quality statistics.
Line control: Computerized with receipt management for high production stability and quality constancy.
