ERW Tube Mill Lines: HG20-HG610
The HG series high frequency welded pipe unit adopts the roller forming principle to continuously produce straight seam welded pipes. It adopts high frequency induction welding and can produce not only round pipes, but also square and rectangular pipes and special-shaped pipes that do not exceed the processing range of round pipes.
The ERW Tube Mill Line is a continuous, automated industrial system used to produce Electric Resistance Welded (ERW) steel tubes and pipes. The line forms steel strip into a tubular shape and joins the edges using High-Frequency Induction Welding (HFIW) technology. This process ensures efficient, precise, and high-speed tube production, capable of manufacturing round, square, rectangular, and special-shaped tubes within the forming range.
This equipment is supplied by Great Wall. Great Wall’s ERW Tube Mill machines are renowned for their high-precision forming, stable high-frequency welding performance, and fully automated operation. They are widely used in industries such as construction, furniture, automotive manufacturing, and fluid transportation, providing customers with reliable and efficient tube production solutions.
Uncoiling – Steel coils are uncoiled and fed into the production line.
Shear & End Welding – The ends of steel strips are welded together for continuous operation.
Accumulator – Temporarily stores strip material to keep the line running smoothly during coil changes.
Forming – Rollers gradually shape the flat steel strip into a round open tube.
High-Frequency Welding – Tube edges are heated and fused using high-frequency induction.
Bead Removing – Removes internal and external weld beads for a smooth surface.
Cooling – The welded tube is cooled by a water system.
Sizing & Straightening – Adjusts the tube’s diameter and ensures straightness.
Cutting – Tubes are automatically cut to the required length.
Inspection & Packaging – Finished tubes are inspected, bundled, and prepared for delivery.
Wide Range & Flexibility – Produces round, square, rectangular, and special-shaped tubes from φ12mm–φ610mm, suitable for various thicknesses and industries.
High Efficiency – Production speed up to 120 m/min with stable high-frequency welding, ensuring fast and continuous operation.
High Precision & Quality – Advanced roller forming and HF welding deliver accurate dimensions and smooth, strong welds.
Durable & Energy-Saving – Robust structure with optimized power configuration ensures long life and stable performance.
Automation & Easy Operation – Intelligent control systems and optional quick-change setups enhance productivity and convenience.
