thanks for your response. we are a contract bender and would be asked to eventually bend practically every grade and impact requirement combination. our question becomes, how do we economically develop this breadth of knowledge required to offer this wide range of offerings to our pipeline...
we have a heat induction pipe bending machine and have operated it for decades. we have not used it to bend high strength pipeline bends that must comply with specifications requiring that our after bent mechanical properties meet certain parameters.
we would like to enter this pipeline...
I need to know how to heat induction bend high strength pipeline material and maintain mechanical properties within their original tolerances. Specifically I need the chemistry for the mother pipe, the bending rate and the bending temperatures. Can anyone help me find this information?
