    FAQ

     

    Q: Can one machine produce different tube sizes?

    A: Yes. By systematically changing the roll tooling sets and updating the digital recipe parameters in the control panel, a single production line can manufacture a diverse range of square and rectangular dimensions within its engineering capacity.

    Q: Which welding method is better for stainless steel tubing?

    A: TIG welding is traditionally favored for decorative and architectural applications due to its smooth aesthetic surface finish, whereas laser welding provides exceptional speed, minimal thermal distortion, and deep penetration ideal for high-output industrial manufacturing.

    Q: Is it possible to manufacture both round and square tubes on the same equipment?

    A: Yes. With a flexible tooling configuration and appropriate roll changeovers, the system can be adapted to produce round, square, and rectangular profiles on a modular basis.

    Q: What kind of support is provided for overseas installation and training?

    A: Comprehensive engineering services are available globally. Expert technicians travel directly to client facilities to manage mechanical installation, electrical integration, system commissioning, and hands-on operational training for local staff.
