Pipe And Piping Industry
A Pipe is a long cylinder that is hollow and has a certain wall thickness, forming the most important channel to transfer. Piping system is a network of pipes, fittings, and valves intended to perform a specific job i.e., to carry or transfer fluids from one equipment to another. The plumbing in every home is a simple example of a piping system. Complex examples include steam piping in a power plant, milk piping in a dairy, oil piping in a refinery, etc.
Piping systems may consist of a variety of materials, including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium, brass, copper, glass, or plastic. The material selection as well as pipe sizing depends upon parameters like the type of liquid, its pressure, ambient or liquid temperature, and flow rate.
Components of a Piping System
Pipes: Pipes are the long members to transfer the media like food, liquids & chemicals. These are used to connect the pipe fittings.
Pipe Fittings: Pipe fittings are used to connect lengths of pipes to form a complex piping system; commonly used fittings are flanges, elbows, tees, reducers, expansion bellows, etc.
Valves: Valves are used to stop, divert, or control liquid flow. Common valve types are gate valves, globe valves, butterfly valves, ball valves, and control valves.
At Taiwan Plasma Corporation, we have acquired immense expertise in making the smallest pipe to the largest pipe with the simplest system to complete pipe mills. We also do the welding and cladding of the elbows. Once the pipes are done. We also have the expertise to cut them. The flanges are also cut on our machines, in some cases, even the precise hole cutting is also done.
Typical Applications
- Cutting of the pipes, flanges, fittings, etc, to suit the end application.
- Welding of the pipe with simple TIG, TIG+ Plasma +TIG (TPT), plasma welding, SAW welding, and elbow welding.
- Cladding of the valve seat area by a suitable protective coating.
- Manufacturing of large-sized pipe spools.
