Development of process of assembly-welding of gas control station header with diameter of 219 mm of block

Introduction

One of the most important and most effective areas of technological progress is integrated mechanization and automation of production processes, in particular welding processes. The importance of welding production in mechanical engineering is very great. Now it is difficult to name the region of the national economy, wherever this or that method of welding is used. With the use of welding, it became possible to create such structures of machines and assemblies that were previously practically impossible to manufacture in other ways.

For the manufacture of high-quality structures, it is necessary to constantly improve the welding industry, which has become one of the leading fields of technology in all branches of mechanical engineering, high-performance and economically profitable welding, surfacing, soldering, and thermal cutting processes are widely used, allowing you to successfully process almost all structural materials from tens of micrometers to several meters thick. The achieved high level of development of welding equipment serves as a solid basis for a significant further increase in labor productivity, saving materials and energy in the national economy, as well as improving the quality and reducing the cost of the welded structure.

The constant increase in the volume of production and the expansion of the field of application of welded structures are associated with the development and introduction into production of progressive types of welding, high-quality welding materials, high-performance machines, equipment and technical equipment, integrated mechanization, automation and robotization of production processes.

Complex mechanization and automation of the manufacturing process of welded products is one of the main tasks of welding production, the solution of which dramatically increases the productivity of work.
