[0044] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0045] Example 1

[0046] The figure shows a method for bending and manufacturing large-diameter, thick-walled, high-strength steel pipes, including:

[0047] S1: Simulate the center line of the bending direction of each semicircle of the steel arch line using a BIM model;

[0048] S2: According to the drawing size, the powder line is popped out at the steel pipe joint position line and the processing position line, and the steel stamp is knocked on the steel pipe, and the inner and outer sides are marked, and 30mm excess is left at both ends of the steel pipe, and quality inspection is required for checking and rechecking, which serves as the basis for subsequent steel pipe pressing and cutting;

[0049] S3: A 6-meter long false joint is needed at each end of the steel pipe, and a 2000-ton oil press is used for pressing. In the pressing process, the lower area of the steel pipe in the pressing area is heated and baked with an oven gun until the 7-meter long range of the steel pipe is pressed;

[0050] S4: After the final pressing is completed, the theoretical camber and the actual measured camber of each part of the steel pipe are compared;

[0051] S5: After the pressing is qualified, the joint position line, the processing position line and the center line corresponding to the processing position line are rechecked according to the drawing size, and the quality inspection is checked to ensure the accuracy before the joint cutting process is carried out;

[0052] S6: The cutting sequence is drawn on the steel pipe, and a cutting platform is set up in the workshop, and the steel pipe is cut according to the specified cutting sequence. In the cutting process, about 10mm area is left in the connection area of the relevant joint for temporary cutting;

[0053] S7: First, place the steel pipe joint in a horizontal state, then use a small crane to hang the upper opening of the steel pipe at both ends with hooks, and set supports at the joint connection point position. After the component is cooled, the subsequent cutting of the other 8 connection points is carried out;

[0054] S8: Then cut the joint at the port position of the steel pipe to cut the steel pipe into two half circle pipes;

[0055] S9: The longitudinal groove is opened on the half circle pipe, and the groove opening form is: 11° inside with 25mm root, 35° outside with 6mm root;

[0056] S10: After the longitudinal groove is opened, the half circle pipe is placed on the horizontal jig for positioning and fire correction;

[0057] S11: Collect the actual value and theoretical value data of the overall test piece as a reference for subsequent half circle pipe production.

[0058] In this embodiment, before cutting in step S6, the processing direction of the half circle is not at the center line position of the half circle, and the adjacent stage processing radius is not in the same plane. Therefore, the two side half circle pipes are combined into a whole circle pipe blank according to a certain rule, the whole circle pipe is rolled, and then the circle arc pipe is processed, and then the two circle arc half circle pipes are opened. In the cutting process, according to the cutting steps marked in Figure 2 , the local cutting is carried out according to the cutting steps marked in Figure 2 .

[0059] Figure 3 The black circle in the middle represents a 10mm long uncut area. Due to the instant the connection point broke, the component bounced open at the cut, accompanied by a loud noise. The width of the cut increased from approximately 5mm to 20mm. Therefore, a support should be installed at the cut connection point. Figure 4 As shown, this is to control deformation.

[0060] In this embodiment, the deviation between the actual and theoretical data is measured and recorded before correction in step 10. After verification by the quality inspection department, the data is corrected by fire.
