Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of metal forming, and in particular to an intelligent processing method and system based on seamless stainless steel welded pipes. Background Art

[0002] Stainless steel welded pipes, as an indispensable basic material in modern industry, are widely used in high-demand fields such as petrochemicals, food processing, medical equipment, and nuclear energy. Their processing and manufacturing technology directly affects the quality of the product and subsequent application performance.

[0003] At present, the main processing methods for stainless steel welded pipes include argon arc welding, plasma welding, laser welding and resistance welding. As a traditional process, argon arc welding has the advantages of good weld formation and relatively simple operation, but it has serious defects such as slow welding speed, wide heat-affected zone, and easy generation of pores and slag inclusions. Although plasma welding can achieve a higher welding speed, the equipment is complex, the cost is high, and the operating environment requirements are extremely strict. The slightest carelessness will lead to unstable weld quality. Although laser welding technology has high precision and a small heat-affected zone, the equipment investment is huge, the maintenance cost is high, and the surface cleanliness of the workpiece is stringent. Once there is an oxide layer or contaminants on the surface, welding defects are very likely to occur. The resistance welding process is simple and efficient, but the weld strength is relatively low, and it is difficult to achieve welding of complex cross-sections.

[0004] Common drawbacks of these traditional processing methods include uneven microstructure, concentrated residual stress, and reduced corrosion resistance in the weld area. In particular, grain coarsening at the weld seam severely impacts the overall performance of the material, significantly reducing the reliability of welded steel pipes in high-temperature, high-pressure, or corrosive environments. Furthermore, defects such as spatter, lack of fusion, and undercutting during welding not only impact the appearance but also severely limit the product's service life.

[0005] Weld quality is crucial for subsequent seamless fabrication. Seamless fabrication requires a good metallurgical bond between the weld and the base material, a uniform and dense microstructure, and no significant strength differences. If defects such as porosity, slag inclusions, and cracks are present in the original weld, these defects will further expand under the high temperature and high pressure conditions of seamless fabrication, leading to fabrication failure or even product rejection. The weld's chemical composition uniformity, microstructural continuity, and residual stress distribution directly determine the success rate of seamless fabrication and the performance of the final product. Therefore, optimizing the welding process and improving weld quality are key technical prerequisites for achieving high-quality seamless fabrication. Summary of the Invention

[0028] The embodiments of the present application are described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] refer to Figure 1 The present invention provides an intelligent processing method based on seamless stainless steel welded pipes, which is used to process stainless steel seamless welded pipes, including the following steps: A1, heating the preset stainless steel plate to the preset forming temperature; The forming temperature is a pre-set heating temperature used to heat the stainless steel plate to be formed to the corresponding temperature to improve its plasticity. The forming temperature can be set according to factors such as the specific processing technology, plate material, plate thickness, plate size, etc., or a fixed universal forming temperature can be set, for example, 200°C, 400°C, or a temperature between 200°C and 400°C.

[0031] A3, obtaining thermal imaging data of the pre-bent edge cross section of the pre-bent edge plate; The pre-bent edge cross-section thermal imaging data is the thermal imaging data of the cross-section of the pre-bent edge plate, which can be obtained by photographing the cross-section of the plate through a thermal imaging device. Since the stainless steel plate is preheated before forming, the image of its cross-section can appear more clearly in the thermal imaging image.

[0032] A4, passing the pre-bent sheet through a preset U-forming module to form a U-shaped sheet; The U-forming module is an equipment module used to extrude pre-bent sheet materials into a U shape; The U-shaped plate is a stainless steel plate formed by the U-forming module after the pre-bent plate is formed.

[0033] A5, obtains the thermal imaging data of the U-shaped cross section of the U-shaped plate; The U-section thermal imaging data is the thermal imaging data of the U-section plate section.

[0034] A6, passes the U-shaped sheet through the preset O-shaped forming module to form an O-shaped seamed pipe; The O-shaped forming module is an equipment module used to extrude pre-bent sheet materials into an O-shape; The O-shaped seamed pipe is a stainless steel plate formed by the U-forming module. At this time, the stainless steel plate has been formed into a tube shape with a gap left.

[0036] A8, based on the pre-bent edge section thermal imaging data, U-section section thermal imaging data, O-section section thermal imaging data, and seam thermal imaging data of the stainless steel plate, generates an estimated weld quality score for the O-shaped seam pipe using a pre-trained weld quality prediction model; The weld quality prediction model is a recognition model pre-trained based on historical data collection, and is used to evaluate the quality of O-type seam pipes after welding. The thermal imaging data of the pre-bent edge section, U-section section, and O-section section can provide the deformation characteristics of the stainless steel plate during forming, and further indirectly provide the stress characteristics of the forming process. Combined with the thermal imaging data of the joint, the weld quality prediction model can be used to predict the weld quality after welding.

[0037] Through the above steps, the intelligent processing method based on seamless stainless steel welded steel pipes can preheat the plate and collect thermal imaging data at each node of the forming process.

After the correction, the seam of the O-seam pipe is welded using the welding module to form a stainless steel welded pipe. When the estimated weld quality score of the O-type seam pipe is less than the weld score qualification threshold, it can be determined that its forming process is unqualified and needs to be corrected or repaired before the next welding step can be carried out.
