Abstract

The quality of welded pipe (diameter 508–1420 mm; wall thickness 8–48 mm) of strength class up to K80 (X100) is investigated. Plastic shaping is simulated, with quantitative estimation of the stress–strain state of thick-walled pipe blanks in TESA 1420 presses during edge bending and stepwise shaping. The corresponding computer program permits calculation of the setup of the equipment and determination of the geometric parameters of the pipe blank specified in the standards. Theoretical results are presented for a range of large-diameter pipe produced on the TESA 1420 system.
