In-Line Gauge Control offers the welded tube producer a process to consistently reduce conversion losses, improve profitability, and produce superior tubular products with potential sales opportunities in new markets without extensive capital investments. The process is not limited in its application to welded tube production, by materials, by weld speed or by material thickness. In-line control permits the use of the widest possible raw material sources (steel chemistry and basic physical quality must be similar), thereby permitting further flexibility in raw material purchasing. The process offers, in some instances, further savings by permitting substitution of alternate materials, for example HRS P&O for Cold Rolled. In-Line Gauge Control offers tube producers the ability to be more competitive and less dependent on their steel suppliers.
