Product Overview
Hydraulic Plate Roll
The plate roll turns a flat plate of steel (up to 1/2”
thick) into a round cylinder.
CNC Laser Cutting Control Panel
To provide the greatest accuracy the CNC
laser cutting machine uses PLC controls. All
programming is performed in-house and stored
in the shop computers.
Submerged Arc Longitudinal
Seam Welder
As the welding head travels 28-30 IPM, the
welding wire penetrates the steel to form a full-
penetration weld on both the inner and outer
surface of the tank shell.
Fit-Up Weld
Tank heads and fittings are tacked and welded
into the tank shell by ASME certified welders.
Submerged Arc Circumferential
Welder
Here the submerged arc welding process welds
the ends on as the tank rotates. A full-penetration
X-ray quality weld is made in two to four passes.
Internal Shot Blasting
All internal surfaces are blasted to a white metal,
removing rust, scale, greases and oils so lining
can have optimum adhesion.
4.5 Million BTU Intermittent Glass
Furnace
After a drying process, the tanks enter the furnace
module. The glass lining is fired at 1600º F to
create a molecular bond between the glass frit
and the vessel’s steel surface. This is the largest
indexing furnace in the United States.
Lasting Quality
The ASME inspector then administers tests for leaks
and other nonconformances. Magnesium anode
rods are provided with each glass tank to protect
the integrity of the lining.
Hydrostatic Testing
Upon completion of the manufacturing processes,
each tank has all threaded openings tapped and
cleaned. The tanks are then filled with water and
brought up to the designed working pressure.
