Raw Materials
The quality of the product's raw materials is determined by the rotating seals, which are selected based on the design structure. Any errors in this process may result in a leakage in the swivel joint and a reduction in the service life. Therefore, strict control of raw materials is crucial. Raw material testing is conducted by analyzing the composition of the materials, including the content of each element, and comparing it with national steel standards.
Design and Fabrication
We offer not only standard swivel joints but also custom-designed special-shaped joints according to customer requirements. Our design process involves multiple stages of refinement, from designers to design engineers to the design director, before the finalized design is handed over to the technical department.
The technical department prepares the necessary materials based on the design drawings and principles, which are then passed to the production department. During production, each component must attain a precision of 0.01mm to guarantee proper assembly.
The crucial and indispensable testing phase commences after production.
Swivel joint Testing
①Dynamic Condition Testing: Swivel joints are tested under dynamic conditions to simulate real-world operating environments. This includes testing with various types of seals for crude oil, gas, and water under different temperatures and pressures.
②Seal Efficiency: The testing process involves evaluating the behavior of seals within a wide range of conditions to ensure the efficiency of the seal selection process and the overall swivel design.
③Material Testing: It can be made from various materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and others. Each material has specific properties that may influence the testing criteria.
④Bearing and Seal Integrity: Testing often focuses on the integrity of the bearing and seals within the joint to ensure they can withstand the pressures and maintain fluid tightness.
⑤Types of Tests: Tests may include pressure testing, torque testing, and endurance testing to simulate the life cycle of the swivel joint in service.
⑥Structural Improvements: Failure analysis of joints can lead to structural improvements, which are then tested to enhance performance and durability.
