Surface Cleanliness Tester (WA Clean)
The WA Clean is the first and only handheld patented technology that provides a fast and objective manner to measure and communicate the cleanliness degree of a blasted surface. It is an optical analysis device designed to characterize the visual aspect of a blasted surface in the L.a.b. color space. This device does not replace […]
Robotic Pipe End Measurement System
Selmers Robotic Pipe End Measurement System (PEMS) automatically measures pipe bevel geometry and out of roundness at the pipe ends. The system produces a dimensional inspection report containing critical dimension and stores these to preferred storage media. Every measurement report can contain up to 360 dimensions for inner radius, outer radius, out of roundness, wall […]
Robotic Coating Thickness Measurement System
The Robotic Coating Thickness Measurement (CTM) measures SFBE, DFBE, 3LPE/PP and liquid coatings. Individual layer thicknesses, as well as total thickness at critical spots like seam tops can be monitored and reported continuously. The robot will be installed in the external coating application area. The results of the measurement are displayed on a monitor for […]
Peeling Resistance Tester
The S-PRT-2500 is used to perform the peel strength test. More specifically, it tests the bond between the adhesive/PE (or PP) top coat layers and the FBE layer. Advantages: Completely wireless connections Highly compatible and mobile device Peeling test results are automatic generated in a report according the selected standard Highly accurate in peeling speed […]
Cathodic Disbonding Tester
An important element in your QC scope is the Cathodic Disbonding Tester. It is designed to test the resistance of applied pipe coating against disbondment from the metal substrate. Advantages: Voltage and current measurement resolution better than 0,01% Automatic temperature compensation Data export in *.csv format for easy view in spreadsheet programs such as MS […]
Internal Blasting & Coating Plant
Internal coating or lining of pipes is a common technology to protect steel pipelines against corrosion or to reduce flow friction. It is widely used in (long distance) transport lines for oil, gas, fuel, condensate, chemicals, potable- or industrial water, sewage, outfall pipes and drilling pipes. Depending on the transport medium, its aggressiveness and other […]
Synthetic water pipes: the best is yet to come
Do you ever get the feeling that we have lost our sense of amazement? After all, we take things like streaming videos and music entirely for granted and we thoughtlessly pick up the garden hose to give our plants a drink. Yet even behind such a ‘simple’ garden device, a special technique is hidden. This […]
Evolving piping markets: new business or business as usual?
In recent years, Selmers has transformed itself into an innovative partner for data-driven process optimization in a wide variety of industries. This includes pipe blasting and coating, which has been our core business for decades. In this line of business, interesting opportunities are evolving that we are responding to, ranging from treatment equipment to complete […]
Selmers site managers and traveling engineers operate like real chameleons
Everyone understands that ‘delivering’ installations and production lines is nothing like delivering a pizza. At Selmers we consider erection, installation and commissioning just as important as the engineering itself. That is why a site manager always travels to customers around the world along with a mechanical, electrical and software engineer. Because of the often large […]
Procurement anno 2021: troubled faces and a coffee IV
With global production problems due to lockdowns, a container ship blocking the Suez Canal in March and the recent closure of some Chinese ports, buyers anno 2021 are not to be envied. They are also increasingly easy to recognize by their troubled and coffee-infused faces. All the more impressive that, at least at Selmers, they […]
