1. Raw material cuttingSelect 304, 316 stainless steel or carbon steel forgings or round bars, cut the material according to the flange specifications, remove the excess parts, and ensure the accurate size of the blank material, flat surfaces, and no cracks or layers.
2. Forging and shapingHeat the blank material at high temperature and then forge it into shape, making the metal structure dense and increasing the strength and impact resistance. After forging, perform heat treatment to eliminate internal stress and prevent deformation during processing and use.
3. Rough machining on latheCarry out rough machining on the outer circle, end face, back, and center hole of the flange on the CNC lathe, initially form the flange structure, reserve the machining allowance, and ensure stable clamping and unified benchmark.
4. Precision machining of socket jointsPrecision machine the sealing surface and socket groove, strictly control the depth and inner diameter tolerance of the socket hole, ensure the appropriate gap for pipe insertion; at the same time, process the welding groove to facilitate subsequent welding and sealing.
5. Bolt hole processingLocate according to national standards, use drilling machines or CNC equipment to evenly drill bolt holes, chamfer the hole mouth to remove burrs, ensure smooth installation of the bolt, and avoid scratching the sealing gasket.
6. Surface treatmentPerform acid washing, passivation or rust prevention treatment on the flange, remove oil stains, oxide scale and processing impurities, form an anti-corrosion protective film, and improve corrosion resistance and appearance quality.
7. Inspection, marking and storageInspect the size accuracy, depth of socket joints, flatness of the sealing surface and appearance quality, and randomly test the water pressure and air tightness. After passing the inspection, mark the material, pressure, specification, and standard number, package and store.
