Line-up equipment
Line-up modules align pipe ends before welding in e.g. fabrication lines of spoolbases or double (multi joint) facilities. The line-up modules can move a pipe in the horizontal and vertical direction as well as rotate the pipe. When lined out properly with the other pipe, the line-up modules can press the pipe with constant force against the other pipe, in order to assure gap-free welding.
Advantages:
- Easy and flexible integration to existing systems (separate control box)
- Equipment can be installed as standalone
- Frequency controlled v-shaped (diabolo) roller
- Fast drop down function for passing cutback/or weld band
- Accurate horizontal and vertical holding positions
- Pipe weld orientation can manipulated by rotation units
- Separate hydraulic power pack (proportionally controlled)
- Operation by an wireless remote control (radio frequency)
How It Works:
The horizontal and vertical movement is accomplished by hydraulic cylinders. The diabolo roller and rotation unit are mounted on a carriage frame, which can be moved in the horizontal direction, guided by horizontal guide profiles. The diabolo roller and the rotation unit are mounted separately on a liftable frame, which can be moved in the vertical direction, guided by vertical guide profiles.
The Full Scope:
- Wire less remote control box
- Hydraulic power pack with controls
- Speed select switch
- Automatic neutral positioning
Optional:
- Stalk end line up module
- Mounting on rails
- Out of roundness pipe end measurement
- Straightness indication
