Well done Romania - this is the sort of thing we used to do in the UK, before we outsourced most of our manufacturing to China and India. Glad to see some skills remain in Europe....
If it can be done small scale, it can be done large scale. 16g to 3" plate... doesn't matter, you just need the machine to do it and account for bend allowance.
Well that beats the old fashioned method of twenty men with sledge hammers,a furnace to heat the whole sheet and a pattern for them to hammer it over.It still amazes me how the locomotive boiler makers could produce such intricately shaped boiler/firebox fronts using the above mentioned method.Rather them than me!!
***** Plenty of Americans are fat. There is an obesity issue that needs to be resolved. A culture that has an addiction to enormous servings of red meat, soda, and sugars needs to be offended. Source: I'm an American. PS. It was also funny :D
Here's 8 other countries with obesity rates higher than the US. So no, it wasn't funny. It was stupid. www.fitday.com/fitness-articles/nutrition/the-10-most-obese-countries-in-the-world.html
When Australia could make this back in the 70s and 80s, where I did my trade we made a 5.5M x 6.35mm dish end just for hydrostatic testing. sad we can't do it any more :-(
Looking at the state of the machine my guess is that this machine very recently was installed and that the entire workforce in that factory wants to see it in action.
also UG-79 would be applied. upon forming in which the head should not exceed the calculated thickness. the thinnest portion of the head would be the knuckle portion. if the head exceeds the head should go through a normalization process.
SE heads 2:1 ratio most likely SA 516-70 and looks to be a partial in which a U-2 partial data report would be filed and also the seams would have to be 100% rt'd.
Not a racist, i call it like it see it. Take your pot and shove it. The rolling isn't important, any die will exert the same force on the member supporting it. In this set up, the die does not compress. Rolling makes the drawing incremental, but must be supported from behind (like the previous commenter suggested, which is ridiculously expensive and massive to have a mandrel that large). Another problem is the torque required to spin such a disk, which isn't/cannot be bolted at the center.
Wow..that's how those are made..we build vessels where I work I heard these vessels sell for millions to big oil producer's like chevron, aera, pxp, _______ (_______) that's what they look like big 60footers
How to avoid crack on weldment area during forming? Which parameter need to control? Yours look like two long seam weld on plate. Is it better to have one or two weld seam for plate need to form?
I often wonder why people like you would post a comment such as this. There will always be a bigger, faster, more powerful, stronger, etc. piece of equipment. So why point out that you had a press that "put this one to shame"?
Dear Mr Joey S let me tell to you that we are glad that you have such strong machine but....our press is let say 8 times bigger that what you mentioned....so forgot about shame or keep it for your self
quit crying about the lack of a hard hat,, in America, we take so long doing a JSA, job Plan, permits, etc, that those guys are finished before we ever get started..
Hard hats are only required when there's a risk of falling items from above on your head. when there's no risk, then it's not required. I work in a workshop, and I never wears hard hat.
wow here in Australia we do jsa working at heights confined space hot work permits you name it takes 4 hours to fill it in lol atleast safety is a priority
for the most part, our biggest export right now is empty cargo containers. there is truth in both statements, we used to do stuff like this on a much grander scale building our own stuff. making companies out of businesses, and products in factories, then legislation and to at least some degree even the unions have made it hard to run a manufacturing business here in america. so when compared to mexico and china where they don't care about the environment then no we don't do this here anymore.
That video began in daylight and finished that single head the next day. Where I work we have a head press and it can produce that head in under 10 minutes.

kilx81, to answer your question, Zerokiller is an idiot,that's not the reason at all. The reason is because spinning requires huge dies and mandrels. Even if they would waste the money to finance such a gigantic die, they would have to scrap it when they form another pressure vessel. Large vessels like this are unique orders. It's not like they can resue the die.
Those were nowhere near as thick as this is. You'd damage the metal before an explosive would form it. Explosive forming is reserved for thin materials.
saludos señores quisiera saber cual es el precio de esta maquina.por favor mandar la cotizacion a este e-mail ubicacion de la empresa que les visito y saber si disponen la misma maquina en calidad de usado gracias.
