Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for manufacturing steel Cheese Tubes/Jumbo Tubes/Pipes for woven‐sacks and Cops/Bobbins/Pirns for synthetic yarn. In process of present invention, strip of basic steel grade (SAE 1020, SAE 1026, ST 52, ST 52.3, SAE 1541 and MC 11 and similar or equivalent grades.) is selected as feed stock. The strip undergoes forming process to form steel Tube/Pipe and faying edges of said steel Tube/Pipe are welded through electrical resistance welding (ERW). Thereafter, ERW tube/Pipe is straightened on hyperbolic Tube/Pipe straightening machine. The straightened Tube/Pipe is hardened by induction hardening at 900 °C‐950 °C to achieve enhanced tensile strength and improved elongation to withstand the pressure exerted on steel Cheese Tubes/Jumbo Tubes/Pipes during winding of flat tape yarn for woven sacks and Cops/Bobbins/Pirns during winding of Nylon (Polyamide) and Polyester synthetic yarn. Thereafter, the Tube/Pipe is optionally subjected to coating particularly for cheese tube/pipe and jumbo tube/pipe.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process of induction hardening treatment at steel cheese tube edge for high impact resistance. More particularly, it relates to induction hardening treatment only at the edges of steel cheese tube used in winding flat tape yarn. Steel hardening is followed by process of heating and quenching the ends of steel tube. An induction hardening provides improved protection to the edges when the tube with filled up flat tape yarn or empty tube undergoes repeating rotations, movement, transportation, handling as well as during inserting/loading the cheese tubes on spindle winder machines. It is also cost effective in terms of repeated number of rotations in winding process. The present invention provides advantages in terms of super high strength at the ends and protection against deformation, combination of ductility and strength at the central portion of the tube, light weight, multiple usage and longer life coupled with economy per usage.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for manufacturing of aluminium alloy cheese tube/ cheese pipe or bobbin for woven sack. The present invention provides light weight, strong and accurate product made from specific aluminum alloys (i.e. 6082 or 6061) duly cold drawn and heat treated to achieve very high strength to weight ratio. The primary billets of aluminum alloys are subjected to a porthole extrusion process sequentially it is subjected to cold drawn for reducing the cross sectional area of the tube. After cold drawn, tubes are further solution treated by special quenching of fog or water. Solution treated porthole extruded aluminum alloy tube can also be used as feed stock. After successive cold drawing, the tubes are straightened on the straightening machine to relieve stress and subsequently the age hardening is carried out to achieve desired tensile strength and percentage elongation in the product.
