Ductile Iron Pipe Production Process
1.Spectral Analysis – Analyze raw materials.
2.Blast Furnace Iron – Melt and refine iron.
3.Electric Furnace Tempering – Adjust composition.
4.Centrifugal Foundry – Mold pipes.
5.Spheroidization Treatment – Improve ductility.
6.High-Temperature Annealing – Relieve stress.
7.Exterior Zinc Spraying – Apply zinc coating.
8.Polishing – Polish socket and spigot.
9.Hydraulic Test – Test strength under pressure.
10.Packaging – Pack pipes for shipment.
