Carbon steel elbow is a common pipe connection, widely used in petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, electric power, gold and other industries. Its main function is to change the flow direction of the pipeline, so that the pipeline system has a more reasonable layout. In order to ensure the quality and performance of carbon steel elbows, we need to follow a series of technical requirements.
First of all, the material choice of carbon steel elbow is very important. In general, carbon steel elbow materials should meet user-related standards, such as GB/T 700, GB/T 1591 and so on. Commonly used carbon steel materials are 20#, Q235, Q345 and so on. Choosing the right material can ensure the strength and corrosion resistance of carbon steel elbows.
Secondly, the manufacturing process of carbon steel elbow also needs attention. First of all, the pipe needs to be cut. When cutting, pay attention to the flatness and verticality of the cutting surface to ensure the quality of the interface. Then, it is thermoformed. Hot forming is the process of heating the pipe to a certain temperature and bending it to the desired Angle and radius through the mold. In the hot forming process, it is necessary to pay attention to the control of the heating temperature to avoid overheating or cooling of the material. Finally, size inspection and trimming are carried out. Dimensional inspection can be carried out by measuring instruments to ensure that the dimensions of the carbon steel elbow meet the requirements. Trimming is to remove burrs and bumps on the surface of the elbow to improve its appearance quality.
