Calorized Lance Pipe is an essential tool for high temperature metal melting procedure. This enables the customers to have their preference for the couplings on the pipes as per their requirement. Therefore, today we shall be discussing about the different connection methods for Calorized Lances.
Connecting Methods of Calorized Lance Pipes

Connection: Screw Socket
The below will show the calorized lance pipes of three types which includes both ends threaded with one coupling at one end and a plastic cap at the other end.
The above-mentioned types of calorized lances will require a socket and a small tool like wrench to tighten the connection. This enables to connect the pipes quickly and then the calorized pipes can be used easily.
Connection: Welding
The calorized lances of Type 4 and 5, is designed with threadless ends subject to the requirement of the customer.
In this case, a single pipe can be used, or the customer can weld two pipes to prevent any kind of air leakage. It is recommended that while welding the pipes inner sleeves should be used to enhance the strength and adhesion of the pipe.

Connection: Pressing Machine
CA Lance Pipe (Type 6): We know that the screw socket and welding machine are used for Type 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and for Type 6 we need a Press machine to connect the pipes using a threadless coupling. With higher volume for consumption, we can consider using this type of connection which avoids air leakage and is also easy to operate.
The steps below show the process to connect the CA Pipes using pressing Machine:
Step 1: Firstly, place two CA Lance Pipes on the supporter.
Step 2: Then the non-coupled end of the CA Pipe is connected with the coupled end of the pipe until the pipes are closely connected inside the coupling.
Step 3: The remote button switch is then pushed on to check whether the piston of the ram is advancing.
Step 4: Then, we have to stop pressing the button and check if both dies are facing correctly.
Step 5: Press the die so that it can be back to the starting position. Then the main switch of the pump is pressed to the position “OFF”. Finally, the press work is completed.
We can also supply the Press Machine together with CA Lance Pipes for the crimping purposes.
Conclusion:
The choice of the lances depends on the requirements of the customers. We hope that our information regarding the three types of lances and their usages will benefit our customers to understand our products and help them to choose the lances accordingly.
