A steel pipe, consisting of, in terms of mass %: from 0.06% to 0.25% of C, 0.50% or less of Si, 1.00% to 1.80% of Mn, 0.030% or less of P, 0.020% or less of S, 0.08% or less of Al, 0.008% or less of N, 0.080% or less of Nb, and a remainder consisting of Fe and unavoidable impurities, wherein a compressive residual stress at an outer surface measured by an X-ray method is 250 MPa or more, and a compressive residual stress at a position at a depth of 1 mm from the outer surface measured by the X-ray method is 70% or more of the compressive residual stress at the outer surface measured by the X-ray method.

Application of the machine for flash-butt welding of rails with one rod, which connects two tong-type clamping devices is widening greatly the functional capabilities at its service, both in welding of separate rails and also in repair of rail tracks under the field conditions and in hard-to-reach places such as railway switches and frogs, the underground tracks, rails, which are laid side by side at a close distance, etc., not changing the optimum process and quality of the welded joints.

A joining method includes performing a first heat treatment step on a first superalloy workpiece and a second superalloy workpiece wherein at least one of the first and second superalloy workpieces include a gamma matrix phase and a gamma-prime precipitate phase. The first and second superalloy workpieces are joined using a solid state joining process, subjected to a post-weld stress relief operation and a final aging heat treatment.

The invention relates to a device and method for producing at least partially closed profiles from metal sheet, having a first tool part, a second tool part, and at least one supporting core. The insertion movement of the supporting core between the bending jaws is limited by a stop and, in its insertion position limited by the stop, protrudes with respect to the bending jaws in the direction of the die, in that the supporting core is arranged on a carrier that is movable relative to the die, and in that the bending jaws are assigned at least one displacement element connected rigidly thereto, the displacement element coming into contact with the carrier when the bent metal sheet portion engages around the supporting core.

A tool configured to dispense consumables, such as a plurality of stackable weld clips. The tool may receive the insertion of a magazine, which may include the weld clips, a pusher, and a retention pin positioned on a cartridge skewer. The magazine may be inserted into a magazine holder assembly to provide a magazine assembly. The magazine holder assembly may include one or more movable and stationary racks that engage the pusher. The rearward lateral displacement of a spindle may displace the movable rack and electrode arms, while opening retention arms. The electrode arms, which may include clip back-up arms, may be positioned to provide a clamping force on a weld clip that is being dispensed. The forward displacement of the spindle may displace the clamped welding clip with the electrode arms, pivotally open a pawl mechanism, move the retention arms to a closed position, are result in the indexing of weld clips in the magazine assembly.

A magnet arrangement for a magnetically impelled arc butt welding system, wherein the system is used to weld an airfoil to a platform of a gas turbine. The magnet arrangement includes a first plurality of magnets wherein the magnets are located adjacent a first curved airfoil surface and arranged in a first curved shape corresponding to a shape of the first curved airfoil surface.
