Orbital welding is the first choice for high-quality connecting pipes. In most cases, it uses TIG welding (tungsten inert gas) to weld around the pipe guided by a mechanical system. The name of orbital welding comes from the circular motion of the welding tool around the workpiece.

 

Application areas of orbital welding technology


Tube to tube welding

Pipe connection includes butt welding. Welding flanges, elbows, T-joints and valves. There are integrity connection requirements for the pipeline.

Tube to tube sheet welding

It mainly involves the production of boilers and heat exchangers, and includes various welding tasks related to tube and tube sheet welding operations.

 

Advantages of orbital welding


Consistent weld quality

In general, the welding quality obtained by mechanized equipment is better than manual welding. Once a proper welding procedure is established, the welding cycle can be repeated as often as needed, without deviation, and practically no welding defects.

Improved productivity compared to manual welding

Compared with manual TIG welding, mechanized or automated processes increase productivity. Repetitive work and orbital welding equipment in the workshop or on-site complex assembly operations ensure that the approved welding sequence is reliably repeated, and time-consuming repair work will be greatly reduced.

Reduce personnel expenses

With proper training, skilled machinists can perfectly operate orbital welding equipment and obtain excellent results. By using this equipment, personnel expenses can be reduced.

Real-time quality monitoring

Modern orbital welding equipment is designed for real-time monitoring of parameters that affect welding. A complete welding agreement can be generated and stored or printed out. The complex data acquisition system operates in the background. If they are directly connected to a good quality management system, automatic data transmission will not cause any interruption to the welding process.

Low environmental requirements

Even in harsh environmental conditions, orbital welding can be performed. Restricted space or access, lack of visibility, and radiation; once the welding head is positioned correctly, the weld can be carried out within a safe distance without difficulty; usually supported by video transmission.
