What is the cost of orbital welding?

3 good reasons for squaring tubes before welding

Squaring of tubes before welding can be interesting for various reasons, and especially for automated or orbital welding applications. Only thin tubes with wall thicknesses no bigger than 3mm are concerned, which generally have to be welded by simple fusion.

Why to be careful of squaring tubes without burrs?

Why use orbital squaring machines to square thin walled tubes?

What different types of bevels exist for tube-tube assemblies?

To bevel a tube means to reduce or to slim down the wall thickness of this tube at its edges. This needs to be done when the wall thickness is of more than 3 millimetres and allows therefore to prepare the assembly of the tubes/accessories.

How to choose between V or J Bevel?

Let us return to the question of the bevel, which will reduce the thickness of the tube in order to allow welding. Generally speaking, a tube with a wall thickness of more than 3 mm cannot be welded with only one layer in TIG welding.
