Welding - Import export

Laserage can precisely cut, drill, weld, scribe, and heat treat a wide variety of materials to meet any and all specification.

Laserage is widely regarded as the medical industry-leading expert in laser contract manufacturing. Since 1979, we have been leading the way in the field of custom laser processing, providing medical device component fabrication with numerous laser manufacturing capabilities.

Welded and redrawn tube manufacturing employs elements of both the welded and seamless processes. A welded and redrawn tube is welded in a conventional manner but then transferred to our seamless mill, located in the same factory. Here the product is redrawn to achieve a welded and redrawn finish. The objective of redrawing is to achieve homogenisation of the weld following annealing by cold working. This refines the structure of the weld resulting in improvements that include: Better corrosion resistance Improved fatigue life Higher mechanical integrity Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

The welding process is one of the core ways in which we manufacture precision tubes. Our high-quality tubing starts off as a flat strip of metal. The strip is formed into a tube through a series of rollers and the join, also called the seam, is then welded together. Welded Processes Special non-destructive testing methods – including eddy current, ultrasonic and pressure testing - are used to ensure a consistent weld. Just like with seamless manufacturing, welded tubes can be drawn down by plug drawing or sinking. This method can be used to create very long lengths of coiled tube, these can also be measured during coiling using a laser measurement. The main welded tube manufacturing processes used are strip welding and cold drawing, but other important processes in between, or at the end of the drawing process, include Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

AMETEK Specialty Metal Products employs a wrought powder metallurgical process to manufacture custom gauge and width strip materials used as the outside sheathing of flux cored wire and metal cored welding wire. Advantages Our high purity process allows production of wire sheathing materials with significant advantages for flux cored welding wire producers, compared to a conventional casting process. These include: Very high ductility Tight and repeatable chemistry control Availability of unique and custom chemistries High purity material for improved tool and die life Corrosion, wear and high temperature resistant Short lead times and small batch sizes Find a consolidated listing of our metal sheathing materials in our Weld Wire Sheathing Brochure. Chemistry Control We tightly control the chemistry of the incoming raw materials to ensure that trace elements are kept to a very low level. Our wrought powder metallurgy process allows chemistry flexibility

Our weld wire sheathing material is used in both flux cored wire and metal cored welding wire processes. The wire sheathing is formed into a tubular product by our customers and the center of the tube contains the ‘fill’ (flux, metal powders, etc) to bring the wire to the desired chemistry. The finished wire is used across a wide breadth of industries in processes such as: Submerged Arc Welding (SMAW) Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) Wire Arc Thermal Spray Flux cored welding wire producers use our metal sheathing materials to prepare finished wire for thermal spray and in surfacing applications, in high temperature and corrosive environments. Cobalt Our Ductile Cobalt Alloys are used to produce wire to hardface applications in the construction, mining, and oil and gas industry. Our proprietary process allows us to offer high Cobalt containing products (91% Cobalt or more) while maintaining a highly ductile strip for wire forming.
