Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of corrugated pipes, and more particularly, to a high-strength double-wave pipe and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The composite layers of the steel belt corrugated pipe are formed in a molten plastic state, which is completely different from the secondary melting and forming of the wound pipe (hollow wall pipe). Therefore, the layers are completely bonded to each other with very high fastness. By performing special pretreatment on the surface of the steel belt, the corrosion resistance of the steel and the adhesion between the steel and the plastic are enhanced, and the peel strength is improved. The pipe is wound and formed in a state where the plastic raw material is fully melted, and the overall structure of the pipe is firm and reliable. Since special materials and processes are used, both the corrosion problem of the steel plate and the adhesion between the steel plate and the PE material are solved, so that the service life of the pipe is the same as that of the pure plastic pipe, ensuring more than 50 years. In the prior art, electrofusion connection, heat shrinkable tape connection, internal and external extrusion welding or a combination of multiple connections can be used. The connection is firm, and a reliable connection can make the pipe achieve zero leakage. However, the corrugated pipes in the prior art are often of a single-wave structure, and their ring stiffness and corrosion resistance are not ideal, and they are easily damaged. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a high-strength double-wave pipe and a preparation method thereof, which can prepare a high-strength double-wave pipe with high ring stiffness, strong corrosion resistance and a more reasonable load-bearing structure.

[0014] Ensure that the shapes of the outer sheet and the steel strip are the same;

[0015] (4) When the steel strip, the inner sheet and the outer sheet run to the pipe rack, open the inner water spraying device to spray water on the inner wall of the pipeline. Adjust the left and right positions and the height of the pipe rack according to the natural inclination angle position of the pipe material to meet the requirements of the outer diameter size of different specifications of pipe materials;

[0016] (5) Cut the end face of the pipe material before starting the machine, measure the inner and outer dimensions of the pipe material, and adjust the operating parameters of the inner sheet extruder and the outer sheet extruder according to the specified standard of the pipe material and the actual size of the pipe material to obtain qualified pipe materials; Detect the bonding situation of the inner and outer sheets of the pipe material, and make appropriate adjustments to the oven and the external heating device of the steel strip to ensure reliable bonding of the pipe material steel strip, the inner and outer sheets.
