Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a polyethylene coated steel pipe and its on-line production method and equipment. In water conservancy, electric power, petrochemical and other enterprises, the steel pipes erected in the space are oxidized and corroded due to contact with air. The steel pipes buried in the ground corrode due to the electrochemical reaction due to contact with the active substances in the ground. This rust or corrosion will shorten the service life of steel pipes. Therefore, before the steel pipe is installed, it is generally necessary to coat the outer surface of the steel pipe with anti-corrosion and anti-corrosion materials. Background technique [0002] In the pipeline systems of water conservancy, electric power, petrochemical and other enterprises, the anti-corrosion and anti-corrosion coating of steel pipes have developed from painting and asphalt on the outer surface of steel pipes to coating polyethylene anti-corrosion materials on t...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Due to the uneven heating of the artificial blowtorch, the bonding between the polyethylene cold tape and the steel pipe is not firm, which reduces the anti-corrosion quality of the polyethylene cold tape

[0008] The above-mentioned reasons limit the use of the extruded polyethylene hot tape coating method of the prior art to produce polyethylene coated steel pipes on-line at the field pipeline installation site

Extruded polyethylene hot-coated steel pipe production method needs to purchase medium-sized medium-frequency induction heating power supply, adhesive tape extruder, and polyethylene tape extruder, which not only increases the purchase cost of anti-corrosion equipment, but also consumes a lot of electricity, which increases anti-corrosion. Coating auxiliary costs increase the cost of steel pipe anti-corrosion coating

Since the elbow cannot be painted by mechanization, it can only be manually coated with polyethylene cold tape in the pipeline anticorrosion factory; the weld joints produced by the pipeline system can only be filled by manual coating of polyethylene cold tape at the pipeline welding site

Polyethylene-coated steel pipes have been transported many times from the pipeline anti-corrosion factory. During the transportation, the polyethylene-coated anti-corrosion layer is damaged due to collisions, and the polyethylene coating can only be manually painted on the pipeline installation site to repair the damage.

Manufacture of polyethylene coated elbows, welded joints, and wound repairs is not only slow in coating speed, but also the coating of anti-corrosion materials is not uniform, and the bonding between layers is not firm. The same material is anti-rust and anti-corrosion The ability is poor, and the use of mechanized polyethylene-coated straight pipes will cause many quality hazards in the entire pipeline system; and manual coating, anti-rust, anti-corrosion treatment The operating environment is poor, and the labor intensity of production workers is high , which is not conducive to safe production, and increases the auxiliary construction time and pipeline installation period
