Tube making

What is the purpose of accumulating the steel strip in the flooper?

• To allow the steel to cool down before forming.

• To ensure continuous operation of the tube mill while the uncoiler is being loaded.

• To apply a rust preventative coating to the strip.

• To align the strip before it enters the forming section.

What is the process of changing the shape from sheet material into a tube called?

• Bending

• 3D Printing

• Forging

• Forming

What type of welding is used to join the round-shaped steel in the tube manufacturing process?

• To remove excess material from the weld.

What is the purpose of the eddy current system in the tube manufacturing process?

• To control the weld location during final forming.

• To prepare the tube for final shaping.

• To test the weld for imperfections.

• To apply a rust preventative.
