SmartAnneal™
Designed to automate the induction seam annealing process, SmartAnneal™ sfotware provides precise temperature control and a simple operator interface.
With SmartAnneal™ software, API® pipe producers can build a product set-up database by entering pipe parameters such as diameter, wall thickness and inductor position in addition to storing equipment settings for a given pipe size. Inductors can be positioned quickly and accurately by using these stored database parameters
Precise control of the seam annealing process in this way results in scrap reduction and higher quality product.
