D. Maximum bending of steel pipe (flatness): 10mm/4500mm

F. Heating speed: ≥0.30m~0.45m/sm/s

E. Heating process control: The uniformity of discharge temperature should be ensured and the deformation of the pipe should be reduced. The furnace body has 6 sections, each section is about 500mm in length (each furnace is controlled by 3 sections of furnace heating). At the entrance and exit of each group of furnaces A two-color thermometer is installed for temperature measurement, a speed measuring device is installed for speed measurement, temperature closed-loop control is realized, and a reliable and optimized control algorithm is used. After temperature analog quantity acquisition processing and data calculation, dynamic adjustment and precise control of each group of furnace body output are performed. The power ensures that the discharge temperature of the tube blanks of different specifications tends to be uniform and the uniformity is better, and the risk of micro cracks caused by thermal stress is overcome.

In addition, in order to make up for the time difference of the temperature measurement of the thermometer and improve the control sensitivity, a hot body detecting device is installed at the inlet and the outlet of each group of furnaces, so that the heating furnace is more sensitive and reliable in maintaining the power and high power of the material and the material.

Copper shields are used at both ends of the furnace to reduce leakage flux, and water is designed on the circumference of the furnace. The chassis is made of non-magnetic stainless steel. The copper tube is wrapped with T2 oxygen-free copper. The wall thickness of the copper tube is greater than or equal to 2.5mm. The insulation material of the furnace body is made of American Union Mine, which has high strength, high temperature resistance and long service life. The furnace body is made of high strength. Thick insulation board. The stainless steel quick-change joint is used for the inlet and outlet of the furnace to facilitate the replacement of the furnace body.

A drain hole is opened in the lower part of the induction furnace body, and the condensed water in the furnace can be automatically discharged.

7, sensor lift bracket requirements

a. The sensor bracket is installed with 6 units between the roller tables for mounting the sensor.
