The O-forming press applies a press force of 4,000 metric tons per meter of pipe. This is necessary to form today’s material grades above X100 to the desired round shape at the optimum level of reduction. The control concept with (patented) multi-cylinder parallelism control ensures that the moving beam maintains a position parallel to the press table with a tolerance of +/-1 mm/m over the entire length. Combined with our tools, this results in a precise pipe gap which leads to signicant time and material savings for the subsequent welding process. The intelligent sensor and control concept of all main cylinders ensures that dierent sheet lengths (e.g., residual lengths) can be processed. The press is powered by either conventional drive concepts or via frequencycontrolled drive concepts. Our ECO Drive uses the high moving load of the moving beam to generate energy during the controlled quick lowering of the beam. This energy is fed back to the power network.

It is of vital importance that the oriented mat be conveyed precisely from the forming line into the infeed head of the ContiRoll®. Otherwise a dependable production process and a symmetrical heating of both surfaces could not be guaranteed. We therefore use an intermediate belt, which is perfectly tuned to the exible infeed head of Siempelkamp’s ContiRoll® and which adjusts automatically to the respective recipe and process Parameters.
