The functionality of Hürner Italia S.r.l. electrofusion welding machines is based on the reading of bar codes interleaved 2 of 5 using a scanner or optical reader, and electrofusion joints up to OD 1200 mm for PE 100 RC can be carried out if the selected machine is upgraded and built for these maximum dimensions. On conclusion of the welding, the parameters can be displayed or printed by checking the proper execution of the times and voltages during the welding process.
PPR material does not have as wide an extension as PE material in so far as this material is used for small-diameter electrofusion welding much more in civil hydraulics than in industrial applications. In order for this material to open up a path to success, Hürner Italia S.r.l. has currently expanded the program to OD 355 mm NP 10 bar and the provision of couplers that can also be electro-welded in high-purity PPR-HP-Polypropylene copolymer. Today, the dimensional range starts from OD 20 mm and currently ends with OD 355 mm. All welds are controlled during the welding process by the machine itself and, if you want a list of the welding parameters, the welding machine’s memory is downloaded and the records of the positive results of the welding carried out printed.
PVDF and PVDF-UHP couplers are special cases in the Hürner Italia S.r.l. program, which welds these couplers using its electrofusion welding machine. The normal machines for PE and PP described earlier are not applicable. These couplers and their respective accessories are available in sizes ranging from OD 20 mm to OD 63 mm SDR 21, NP 16 bar and can also be leased for short-term use.
Induction weldingIn order to perform induction welding, there are currently two types of machine; one can be applied to both systems, whereas the other has a ring-shaped design for welding the exterior of pipes in the ducts of monolithic dual piping, in sizes ranging from OD 50 mm, 90 mm, and 160 mm of the outer pipe, in PE100-PE100 monolithic ducts, and in PPR-PPR.
