ORBITAL WELDING

Orbital welding is a specialized welding technique where the arc is rotated 360° around a static workpiece in a continuous process. Orbital welds can be used to make custom shapes and assemblies, as well as long length coils. For downhole applications, the required length is often longer than the maximum mill length coil, so orbital welds are used to create longer length coils. Welds can be tested as needed per customer requirements including x-ray and pressure testing. Tubing Central offers this service for a wide variety of sizes and alloys.
