Seamless elbow blanking is a common work in pipeline processing, and I will introduce a simple method in detail below to help you understand it better.
Seamless elbow refers to a pipe fitting that connects two pipes in a pipe system, which can change the direction of the pipe and has different bending angles to choose from. Blanking is a step in seamless elbow processing, which determines the shape and size of the final seamless elbow.
The simple method of blanking mainly includes the following steps:
Determine the bending Angle and radius of the elbow: According to the actual needs, determine the bending Angle and radius of the seamless elbow. Usually, this information will be in the design or engineering drawings and can be directly referred to.
2. Calculate the length of the elbow: according to the bending Angle and radius, use a mathematical formula to calculate the length of the elbow. For a 90-degree bend, the length is equal to the arc length, i.e. 2πr, where π is PI and r is the radius. For bends at other angles, the length is equal to the arc length multiplied by the ratio of radians to 90 degrees.
