A method for producing a large diameter steel pipe having excellent shape, toughness and tensile strength by subjecting the pipe to descaling and to heat treatment which involves heating the steel pipe locally successively from one end to the other end of the steel pipe in the axial direction and forcedly cooling the pipe, and then expanding the steel pipe after the heat treatment.

Method for producing large diameter steel pipes

A method for producing a high tensile strength steel plate which comprises subjecting to a low temperature rolling, a steel composition containing not more than 0.25% of carbon, not more than 0.5% of silicon, 0.5 to 2.0% of manganese, not more than 0.015% of sulfur, 0.005 to 0.1% of aluminum, one or more of niobium, vanadium and titanium in an amount not less than 0.01%, and REM in an amount not less than 1.3 times the amount of sulfur, with optionally one or more of nickel, chromium and copper, with the balance being iron and unavoidable impurities, which steel possesses a low notch toughness transition temperature and high absorbed energy in the notch-impact test, and is suitable in the as rolled condition for use as pipe lines in cold districts.

Method for producing a high toughness and high tensil steel

A method for producing a high tensile strength and toughness bend pipe in which a heat treatment is done as a pretreatment prior to bending, and a tempering treatment is done, if necessary, after the bending, and the bend pipe produced by the present invention is useful for pipe line construction and shows excellent properties at low temperatures.

Method for producing a high tensile strength and high  toughness bend

A hollow precision-machined body, such as a circular waveguide for transmission of millimeter wavelengths, is welded to a metallic body with minimum distortion of the precision body, by directing a concentrated beam of heat-producing energy such as an electron beam or a laser beam or a plasma across and peripherally about the interface between the precision and metallic bodies to produce a bead whose width at the contact area is related to the clearance between the bead and the inner surface of the precision tube and the maximum allowable strain at the inner face of the precision tube. Alternately, the energy beam is directed along the interface and around the periphery thereof to produce a bead whose depth of penetration is related to the thickness of the precision body and the maximum permissible strain at the inner surface of the precision body.
