The
Pipes / tubes are then solution annealed, straightened,
picked, passivated and polished before inspection
and despatch.
Annealing : Annealing
or heat treatment, of the tubes is carried out
in fully automated and conveyor - equipped furnaces,
with temperature recorders & controllers.
It consists of heating the tubes to a specified
temperature and immediate quenching in water thereafter.
Straightening
: After the annealing operation,
the tubes are straightened with a straightening
machine. In addition to giving a high degree of
straightness, the tubes are also rounded up during
the operation.
