Steel pipes for mechanical engineering

EBK steel pipes play a central role in mechanical engineering. They are used in a variety of applications where high precision, excellent surface quality and longevity are essential. One important example are hydraulic cylinders which are used in hydraulic systems for power transmission. Here EBK steel pipes present the core piece withstanding high pressure loads. The smooth surface allows a frictionless operation and minimizes the wear in operation.

Another example for EBK mechanically engineered pipes are rope drums because of their high strength. Hereby it is important that the construction does not only carry the weight of the coiled rope but also resists the dynamic load during coiling.

An additional application for EBK mechanically engineered pipes are warp beams and weaving rollers in the textile industry. The high load capacity and the excellent surface execution are essential for these applications because they are responsible for the precise movements. This is mandatory for the production of textiles. Cardan shafts, which are used for transmitting the torque in vehicles and machines often consist of EBK steel pipes because they have to show torsional and fatigue strength at the same time.

In the paper industry felt and sieve guide roller care for uniform guidance of the felt, while press roller put the wet paper under high pressure in order to remove the water and increase the paper density. For the efficient drying of the paper our drying cylinder make use of the excellent thermal properties of the steel. The finished paper is finally safely coiled on reels. Re - winder allow subsequent cutting and new coiling of the paper. For all these components EBK steel pipes offer the necessary strength, longevity, dimensional precision and surface quality for the high requirements of the paper industry.
