Large flanges are a type of flange commonly used in large engineering projects. Compared to ordinary flanges, large flanges offer greater load-bearing capacity and are less prone to deformation. Thickness is a key factor affecting the performance of large flanges.
Insufficient thickness can easily cause deformation during use, posing a safety hazard.
Adequate thickness can withstand significant pressure and weight, ensuring stable operation.
Thus, thickness control is a key concern for process engineers in the design and manufacture of large flanges.
Manufacturing Process for Large Flanges
The manufacturing method for large flanges differs from that for ordinary flanges. The typical process flow is as follows:
Material Preparation
Medium-thick steel plates are typically selected and cut into strips according to the design dimensions. Common materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel.
Forming Process
The cut strips are rolled into a circular shape and then welded to form a ring-shaped blank. The inner and outer diameters are then machined to ensure precise dimensions.
Fine Machining
Waterline machining is performed on a machine tool, and bolt holes are created. After precision machining, large flanges can reach diameters up to 7 meters, providing a stable structure and reliable operation. It's important to note that these large flanges are mostly welded structures, not threaded connections. Due to the high density of the raw materials, the overall performance after processing is excellent, making them suitable for the installation of various large equipment.
The Importance of Flange Sealing
The sealing of flange joints is crucial during the operation of pipelines and equipment.
Poor sealing can cause leaks, resulting in energy and material waste.
In severe cases, it can lead to equipment damage, casualties, and even environmental pollution.
For this reason, industries such as the petroleum, chemical, nuclear energy, and aerospace industries have extremely strict requirements for the sealing of their pipeline systems.
It is important to emphasize the following:
The flange itself: As a removable component, it generally has high sealing performance.
The quality of the sealing material: Its quality directly affects the overall sealing effect. Selecting the right sealing material can maximize the safety and reliability of large flanges.
Summary:
Large flanges are critical pipeline connection components. Thickness control, manufacturing process, and sealing performance are all key factors affecting their quality and safety. Only by strictly controlling the design, production, and operation stages can we ensure the long-term and stable operation of large-scale projects. Cangzhou Aosendic Pipe Fittings Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a large-scale manufacturer specializing in the production of elbows, tees, reducers, elbows, and caps.

The difference between stainless steel and carbon steel
The main difference between stainless steel and carbon steel is that, apart from carbon content, it does not contain any other alloying elements. Carbon steel typically lacks corrosion resistance and is less hard than pure iron;

How to perform corrosion detection on seamless pipe elbows?
Improper use of seamless pipe elbows can lead to corrosion. Once corrosion occurs, the wall of the seamless pipe elbow typically thins, and localized pitting and corrosion appear. Methods for detecting corrosion in seamless pipe elbows include: Leakage magnetic flux detection is based on the high permeability of ferromagnetic materials.
