Bellows Testing | Destructive and Non - Destructive in India

 Bellows Testing | Destructive and Non - Destructive

Hydro Testing

To assure the user that the product has been properly designed and manufactured; it is required for quality check and inspection of bellows performance. It requires some method of examination and testing of the product. The user may specify the kind of testing required in the acceptance criterion. Various testing being done as part of the bellows manufacturing are:

Following are the non-destructive examinations that are recommended for the quality check and inspection and testing after manufacturing.

1. Radiographic examination

2. Liquid penetration examination

3. Fluorescent penetrate examination

 4. Magnetic particle examination

 5. Ultrasonic examination

6. Halogen leak examination

 7. Mass Spectrometer examination

 8. Air jet leak examination

Following are the Destructive examination is also recommended depending upon the application

 1. Pressure Testing

(a) Hydrostatic test

(b) Pneumatic tests following destructive tests are also recommended depending upon the application.

1. Squirm testing

2. Meridional yield rupture testing

3.  Fatigue life testing

Manufacturing Expansion joints (Bellows) from India

  What is an expansion joint? An Expansion Joint is used in the piping system to absorb thermal expansion or terminal movement, where the use of an expansion loop is impractical. Expansion joints are in different shapes and materials. Expansion joints are rubber, metallic , Teflon joints Where are Bellows used?  Bellows are located between the section of bridges, paving slabs, railway tracks, and piping system. The Expansion joints are incorporated to endure the stress Why expansion joints are used? Expansion joints are used to absorb the thermal expansion. They also can be used to absorb contraction in the cryogenic line and reduce the vibration in the piping system. They are nessccary in the system to convey high-temperature substances such as steam or exhaust gases or to absorb movement and vibration. How do you install expansion bellows in a pipe system?           Apply Lubricant          Insert expansion ...

Gimbal Expansion Joint

What is Gimbal Expansion Joint? Design to absorb the system thurst and torsional twist while allowing angulation in any plane. This is a single expansion joint designed to permit angular rotation in any plane by the use of two pairs of hinges affixed to common floating gimbal ring. Gimbal Expansion Joint Double Bellows Gimbal Expansion Joints with weld ends Gimbal Expansion Joints are used to absorb angular rotation in any plane direction, using two pairs of hinges attached to a common floating gimbal ring. This type of construction provides a close control over the movement imposed up on the bellows and also supports the dead weight of the pipe. The wind and shear loads are also taken care of by the gimbal structure. Gimbal bellows joints are designed to absorb the full pressure thrust load of the expansion joint and thus guard the adjacent equipment from damage due to thrust loading. Gimbal bellows joints are not limited to a single plane, they provide greater usability.  Gimb...
