The invention discloses a
seam welding method applied to arc-shaped tunnel steel
pipe pieces. The
seam welding method specifically comprises the following steps that S1, preparation is conducted; s2, preheating, wherein uniform preheating treatment is conducted on the joints; s3, positioning and
welding, specifically, positioning and
welding are conducted at the joints so as to fix the positions of the arc-shaped tunnel steel
pipe pieces; s4, formal
welding is conducted, specifically, a welding
robot is adopted for conducting formal welding on the seam; s5, post-weld heat treatment is carried out; s6, inspection and correction are conducted, specifically, after welding is completed, seams are inspected, and defects are found and corrected in time; and S7, data uploading and recording: all parameters in the welding
record and
detailed data of heat treatment are uploaded to the
system. According to the method, the position of the welding seam is divided into a plurality of welding
layers, each layer is subdivided into a plurality of welding positions, the height of each layer of welding seam is 3-5 mm, and local heat treatment is carried out after each
welding process is completed, so that the stress generated by the
welding process is eliminated, and the
microstructure is improved.
