The Benefits Of Orbital Tube Welding

Orbital tube welding

Orbital tube welding is a type of welding that uses an electrode that is rotated around the tube to be welded. This type of welding has many benefits over other types of welding, such as being able to weld in all positions, being able to weld thin-walled tubes, and being able to weld tubes that are not perfectly round. 

It is also a much faster process than other types of welding, which makes it ideal for production work. In addition, It produces a cleaner weld with less spatter and better penetration.

If you are looking for a welding process that is fast, efficient and produces a high-quality weld, then orbital welding is the right choice for you.

 Aesthetics:

The orbital tube-welded joint has an aesthetic appearance. This is due to the large-scale transfer of heat from the electrode for large areas and thus creating a smooth weld bead rather than small beads.

Heat Affected Zone (HAZ):

There is no HAZ in plant fabrication pipe, unlike submerged arc welding, which results in less distortion and cracking of weldment. Since there is no HAZ, this process also produces a lower amount of residual stress within the material as compared to submerged arc welding, which results in better mechanical properties of the weldments produced by this process.

 Low Thermal Input:

This process requires little thermal input as compared to other processes such as fusion welding techniques, where high thermal input and high pressure are required during welding processes leading to warping and distortion of the workpieces being welded together with low-quality welds produced due to porosity etc.

Less Distortion:

When using tube welding, there is no distortion like that which occurs with other methods of welding. This means that the finished product will look as good as it did before it was welded.

Better Penetration:

Orbital tube welds have better penetration than other methods of welding, which means they are stronger and more reliable than other types of joints. The penetration factor can be further improved by using an advanced configuration such as an orbital butt joint or orbital lap joint configuration when performing the welds on two pieces of metal joined together at their ends (called end caps).

Good Control:

With orbital tube welding, you have greater control over what happens during the process because you can make adjustments if you need to do so in order to get a smooth finish on your workpiece without any defects such as porosity. For more information visit our Website.
