  • 3Shell plates, heads and cones from one source

    Customer benefits of a package supplierAdvantages in manufacturing vessels based on the use of the same chemical composition of steel

    grades for plates, heads and cones from one source and thus special advantages during welding

    Technical advice and coordination from one quality department and R&D department

    Savings of time and costs for the customer as a result of simultaneous completion and shipment

    of shell plates, heads and cones

    Lower administrative expense one contact person for plates, heads and cones

    Our strengthsvoestalpine Grobblech is the worlds only pro-

    ducer of carbon steel, low-alloyed steel and

    clad plates with integrated production of heads

    and cones.

    Heads and cones can be processed of carbon

    steel, low-alloyed steel or clad plates.

    We supply shell plates, heads and cones for

    boiler and pressure vessel manufacture from

    a single source.

  • 5Typical fields of application

    We deliver heads and cones to the

    following industries:

    oil and gas industry

    refineries

    chemical industry

    petrochemical industry

    transport industry

    power plants

    energy industry

    Our heads and cones are used in:

    coke drums

    reactors

    heat exchangers

    separators

    columns

    compressors

    storage tanks

    special tank wagons

  • 6Single-piece heads

    We supply single-piece heads made of carbon

    steel and roll-bonded clad plates.

    Heads are produced by hot pressing and can be

    dished and flanged.

    Dimensions

    pressed flanged

    Diameter max. 3,400 mm max. 3,400 mm

    Thickness max. 160 mm max. 65 mm

    Alternative dimensions on request.

    Welded single-piece heads

    We supply welded single-piece heads made of

    carbon steel and roll-bonded clad plates.

    Welding of plates before pressing enables

    production of heads with enlarged diameter.

    Heads are formed by using:

    Dishing press

    Flanging machine

  • 7Clad heads and cones

    We supply clad heads and cones made of

    roll-bonded clad plates.

    Roll-bonded clad plates are produced in-house

    by voestalpine Grobblech.

    Single-piece, welded single-piece and

    multi-piece clad heads and cones are available.

    Dimensions

    Diameter max. 10,000 mm

    Thickness max. 120 mm

    Alternative dimensions on request.

    Multi-piece heads and cones (crowns and segments)

    We supply multi-piece heads and cones made

    of carbon steel and roll-bonded clad plates.

    Crowns and segments are dished and pressed

    (Dishing press/flanging machine)

    Matching of all parts is proven by trial assembly.

    Production program covers:

    Torispherical heads (ASME)

  • Product integrity for pressure vessels is of great importance.

    Products, processes and business systems of voestalpine

    Grobblech is certified by Lloyds Register of Quality Assurance to

    ISO 9001. This certification covers all aspects of sales, service,

    design, manufacture and testing.

    voestalpine Grobblech is certified for heavy plates as well as

    clad plates by the Verband der Technischen berwachungs-

    vereine (VdTV) (Union of Technical Inspection Groups)

    and by the Technischer berwachungsverein Industrie Service

    Quality assurance

    Product support

    Our Research & Development department is a

    dedicated center of expertise. We continually

    invest in the education of our staff and in the

    latest research tools to assure first-class techni-

    cal investigation.

    We have an independent and fully accredited

    testing facility on site.

    Our R & D is continually developing new

    materials for more complex applications and

    contributes to the optimization of our pro-

    duction processes. Additional work includes

    simulations of material performance such as

    weldability, deformation and edging behavior,

    fatigue tests and fracture mechanics. These

    tests provide a complete performance profile of

    our steels under practical conditions.

    We calculate the pressing tools for hot forming

    of heads with the finite element method.

    Shotblasting for carbon steel heads Carbon steel heads can be shotblasted to a

    roughness of SA 2.5.

    Surface finish for clad headsThe surface of the base material is normally

    as rolled or shotblasted.

    The surface of the clad material is normally ground with a grain

    size of 60 - 240. Other grain sizes are available on request.

    Another option is blasting with glass beads for ferritic-free surface.

    The clad surface is protected for transport with a special easily

    removeable and water-soluble glossy top paint.

    Pre-assembly of multi-piece headsAll parts of multi-piece heads and cones are pre-assembled to

    ensure a perfect match.

    If no tools are available for single-piece heads, we offer

    dished and pressed crowns and segments:

    Pressed with oversize for subsequent edge preparation.

    Pressed with edge preparation and trial assembly.

    Trial assembly is carried out using mounting clamps in

    matching material. The segments are marked in such a

    way that trouble-free re-assembly is possible at the

    customer. Marking the remaining mounting clamps

    makes this job easier.

    Shrinkage during welding is taken into consideration

    in the design.

    Recommendations for welding of clad heads can be

    found in the brochure Roll-bonded clad plates.
