[0090] The oil scraping machine equipment used for removing oil from the intermediate product and the finished product of the pipe is a commercially available KH-60 full-automatic oil scraping cutting machine, and the oil scraping parameters are as follows: the speed of the oil scraping machine is 15 m / min, and the oil scraping machine time = (the average length of each pipe × the number of pipes per frame) / the speed of the oil scraping machine.
[0091] Compared with the simple oil removal process without adding an oil scraping machine and pre-degreasing, the finished product oil removal process of the present application has the following advantages:
[0092] The simple oil removal process is as follows: soaking in an alkali tank → soaking in a hot water tank → wiping the outer surface → hitting the inner wall with a wool felt ball → inspection, and the oil removal time is 1 hour, the oil removal effect is poor, the roughness Ra is 1.0-1.6, the crystal corrosion qualified rate is 90%, the one-time inspection qualified rate is 95% with white spots, and the economic efficiency is poor;
[0093] The oil removal process of the present application is that the oil scraping machine scrapes oil within 6h after cold rolling pre-degreasing, then the oil is soaked in alkali tank within 6h after scraping, then hot water tank soaking, then outer surface wiping, then inner wall woolen ball beating, and then inspection. The oil removal time includes alkali tank soaking for 20min, hot water tank soaking for 10min, and the overall time is controlled within 30min. The oil removal effect is good, the roughness Ra is 0.3-0.8, the crystal corrosion qualified rate is 100%, the one-time inspection qualified rate is 99% without white spot phenomenon, and the economy is good to save the rolling and oil removal cost.
