Abstract
A method for producing hot-rolled, seamless pipes having at least one wall thickening which can be arranged at any positions over the length of the pipe, wherein by means of a multiple-stand mandrel bar rolling mill, the rolls roll a hollow shell on a mandrel bar as an inner tool to a required nominal wall thickness and produce at specified positions over the length of the pipe a required wall thickening on the outer side of the pipe by opening the rolls in the rolling stands. The thickened wall is produced and finish-rolled by two rolling stands that are consecutive as seen in the rolling direction, in which the deviations of the finished contour of the thickening from an ideal circular cross-section are minimised, wherein the rolling stands located upstream are likewise opened as to avoid any contact of the rolls of these rolling stands with the previously produced thickening.
