DN1600X2000mm Medium-sized Composite Autoclave Sent to the U.S.

The Medium-sized composite autoclave (also called composite autoclave or carbon fiber autoclave) is a pressure vessel for curing resin-based composite products, providing it with necessary heat and pressure, and is widely used in high-tech fields such as aerospace, electronics, weapons, transportation, sports equipment, and new energy sources.

At the end of 2020, we TAIAN STRENGTH received an inquiry from a US customer, requiring medium-sized composite autoclave with a diameter of about 1600mm and a length of about 2000mm. Because it is an American customer, pressure vessel design and standards must be in accordance with ASME standards, and our company has had ASME certificates and manufacturing qualifications for 4 years, and has produced more than a dozen ASME products. We have rich experience in the production of composite autoclave for American standard products

According to the customer’s requirements, the number of vacuum paths of the autoclave has been adjusted from 8 at the beginning to 12. We use sampling and separation methods for customers to increase the efficiency and accuracy of vacuuming. Customers can adjust the number of vacuum ports according to the size and number of their own materials and composite products.

Regarding the working voltage and frequency of the autoclave, we can produce 380V, 440V according to customer requirements, or customize. During the period, I repeatedly confirmed the voltage with the customer, because this factor is also a major factor affecting the price of the equipment. On the one hand, ensure that after the equipment arrives at the site, the equipment does not fail to work normally due to voltage and frequency problems. On the other hand, it can also provide customers with a relatively reasonable price. In the end, the American customer gave a voltage of 440V, 50Hz.

The customer put forward the need the human interface in English, and our PLC control system uses the German Siemens brand touch screen system, which can not only control by one button, but also display the situation in the autoclave in real time.

After fully communicating with the customer, the parameters of the medium-sized composite autoclave are finally determined as the following:

For medium and large composite autoclaves, we generally use hydraulic automatic door opening method to ensure the speed and efficiency of opening the door. For small autoclaves, manual or automatic door opening methods can be used, and customers can specify the door opening method according to their needs.

We agreed with the customer for a delivery time of 120 days, but the actual delivery was 15 days in advance. All the equipment was loaded in a 40-frame container and shipped from Qingdao, China to the Port of Long Beach in the United States
