Annealing line developed for precision tube production

Plasmait has built an annealing and surface treatment line for a producer of precision tubing. The system, comprising a custom-built, coiler-type payoff and takeup, handles ODs from 0.02 to more than 0.31 in.

The line is used primarily for stainless steel and nickel alloy tubing; it also can produce other materials with an annealing temperature range from 572 to 2,192 degrees F.

The annealing line features high energy conversion efficiency, low purging gas consumption, quick string-in, and computer-based quality control, the company reports.
