PEASA continues Thermatool par tnership in automotive and construction tube industries

PEASA has selected Thermatool equipment for PEASA’s HF welding, heating, cutting and galvanising processes

PEASA, a conduit mill in Mexico, has announced that it has formally continued its partnership with Thermatool by selecting Thermatool equipment for PEASA’s HF welding, heating, cutting and galvanising processes. PEASA is a producer of specialised automotive tubing and conduit for North America and has worked with Thermatool for more than forty years. It continues to rely on Thermatool as the best partner for helping it to improve efficiencies. “We are very satisfied to work with Thermatool as a partner,” said Mauricio Autrique Ruiz at PEASA. “With Thermatool equipment, we have been able to develop many different tubes in different grades for the highly demanding automotive industry. Lately we have installed equipment for modern high strength steels and a low relation diameter-wall thickness (RD6), and the Thermatool HF Welder supports our needs to produce this.”

This past year, PEASA selected Thermatool to install a second line, which includes an HF Solid State Welder with HAZControl™ Technology and a VIP Power Supply with a Full Body Induction Heater. In addition, PEASA selected Thermatool Corp’s Alpha High Speed Flying Shear for the equipment’s combination of speed and accuracy for its latest high-speed conduit mill. Thermatool’s HAZControl™ Tech- nology will allow PEASA to produce high quality HF welds through recipe creation using power, frequency, vee length and mill speed for precise weld heat input specification requirements for consistent, repeatable, and efficient production runs. Developing databases of production parameters for a variety of steel chemistries and final specifications helps the producer to ensure maximum mill output while reducing scrap percentages. PEASA continues to rely on the technology and reliability of Thermatool

equipment that it has used for several decades. “Thermatool Corp is committed to PEASA and all of its customers to help them maximise their production and profitability for the life of the equipment,” said Kris Livermore, a Thermatool director. “PEASA has been working with Thermatool Solid State Technology for the past two decades and they continue to grow their diverse tube divisions with the highest quality specialised automotive tubing and conduit available in North America.” With proven performance using patented technologies, Thermatool has a global network of more than 40 service technicians who are on call at all times to assist customers.

Danieli heavy-duty straightener in operation at Topy Industries

TOPY Industries Limited, based in Japan, has been operating a new off- line straightener for long products, which it installed at its Toyohashi plant along with it is a spooler line, previously supplied by Danieli in 2018. With a weight of 60 tons the new machine operates separately from the rolling line, straightening profiles

and sections including equal, unequal and inverted angles, grating beams, deformed flats and mast rails. According to Topy’s specific request, the machine was designed in order to allow roll- change sequences in just 30 minutes. The 60-ton straightener, which had been manufactured at the Danieli quality workshops in China, was shipped as a

single piece to Topy’s private dock. Proj- ect erection and commissioning phase were carried out with a reduced number of Danieli supervisors on-site and with the help of Danieli remote support. Danieli . www.danieli.com Topy Industries . www.topy.co.jp
