• Resumen

  • Quality of the weld joint produced by high-frequency induction (HFI) welding of steel tubes is attributed to a number of process parameters. There are several important process parameters such as the speed of the welding line, the angle of the approaching strip edges, the physical configuration of the induction coil, impeder, formed steel strip and weld rolls with respect to each other, the pressure of the weld rolls and frequency of the high-frequency current in the induction coil. The purpose of this paper is to develop a 3D model of tube welding process that incorporates realistic material properties and movement of the strip.
