Metal Bellows

 

Types of Metal Bellows

Formed Bellows (convoluted bellows): These metal bellows are made by reworking tubes, which are produced by deep-drawing under various processes such as hydro-forming and cold forming.

 

Electroformed bellows: These metallic bellows are produced through electro-forming or the plating of a metallic layer onto a mandrel. The mandrel is later removed to give a formed bellow.

 

Welded bellows (diaphragm): These metal-based bellows are made by welding variously formed diaphragms together.

Specification

(1)Metal Expansion Joints
The metal corrugated compensator is composed of bellows (an elastic element) constituting its working body and accessories such as end pipe, support, flange and conduit. The utility model belongs to a compensation element. The effective expansion deformation of the bellows of its working body is used to absorb the dimensional changes of pipelines, conduits and containers caused by thermal expansion and cold contraction, or to compensate the axial, transverse and angular displacement of pipelines, conduits and
containers. It can also be used for noise reduction and vibration reduction. It is widely used in modern industry.

 

(2) Non metallic compensator
The non-metallic Compensator can compensate the axial, transverse and angular displacement of the pipeline. It has the characteristics of no thrust, simplified support design, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, noise elimination and vibration reduction. It is especially suitable for hot air pipeline and smoke pipeline.

FAQ

 

Q: When to use metal bellows?

A: For instance near turbines pressure balanced metal bellows are often used to relieve the loads on the turbine and absorb movements. For exhaust systems, a more simple designed expansion joint are used – made from materials resistant to high temperatures.

Q: What is the movement of the metal bellows?

A: There are three types of movement that metal bellows are designed to allow Axial, Angular and Lateral. Torsional movement – rotation about the pipe axis – is not allowable.

Q: What is the purpose of providing metal bellows?

A: The purpose of providing metal bellows in the shell of tubular exchanger is toIncrease the heating loadImpart structural strengthAccount for the uneven expansion of shell and tube bundlesFacilitate increase of shell length, if needed.

Q: What is the life cycle of metal bellows?

A: Every cycle the expansion joint goes through, it becomes slightly weaker—the metal begins to lose its original shape and will need repair or replacement. You can break it down into three stages: initial, operating, and return to initial.

Q: What is the best material for metal bellowss?

A: The most common material for metal bellowss and expansion joints are the various grades of austenitic stainless steels, which offers a good combination of strength, corrosion resistance and cost effectiveness.
