AXXAIR

AXXAIR has therefore made a point since 1997 of offering machines capable of quality preparation and orbital cutting and also square to perfect standard cuts on thin tubes up to 3 mm thick. We also offer bevelling machines for the thicker tubes to enable controlled quality welding. Our wide range of welding machines is capable of covering the main... markets listed above. These machines can create controlled, reproducible and documented welds. This type of weld can undergo the most stringent testing: x-ray inspection. In less demanding industries, an internal inspection of welds in tubes is enough. An endoscope is normally used for this purpose. This is a remotely steerable camera, used for the most efficient systems to check whether the weld has penetrated 100% over 360° inside the tubes' welded areas and whether the geometry of the inside bead is visually correct (no internal inerting defect, for example, colouration or root porosity). There are other weld inspection methods such as ultrasound inspection machines. The documentation through acquisition of available data in most orbital welding systems can systematically print the welding parameters required from the system (programme) and also measure the values restored by the material. This acquisition takes place precisely every second at our welding stations. The welds are therefore precisely documented (welding date, welding start time) and the alarms can be displayed (defect detected by the station during the welding process, including operator intervention during welding). This guarantees traceability at each stage in the process. AXXAIR supports its customers in the global cutting, squaring, bevelling and orbital welding process in over sixty countries worldwide. We place the emphasis on service in this process, which is increasingly customer-centred. This starts with determining the welding parameters in pre-sale phase including the preparation. We then subsequently train the personnel on the equipment to ensure users are capable of dealing with the ...Read More
