WINCOO Standard Electrogas Welding (EGW) System for API Tanks

Product Introduction:
The WINCOO Standard Series is a purpose-built vertical welding system for fabricating the longitudinal seams of large aboveground storage tanks (ASTs). Utilizing the Electrogas Welding process, it creates high-integrity, single-pass welds in thick plate (typically 9-40mm) with exceptional deposition rates. The system operates vertically upwards using sliding copper shoes to contain the molten weld pool and shielding gas, ensuring X-ray quality joints for critical storage applications like oil, chemicals, and water tanks compliant with API 650/653 standards.

Key Specifications:

Key Features:

• High Deposition Efficiency: Single-pass welding eliminates multi-layer processes, reducing labor by 70%.

• Exceptional Quality: Copper shoes ensure smooth weld profile & minimal spatter; ideal for X-ray/UT inspection.

• Automated Operation: PLC-controlled travel speed, voltage, and wire feed for consistency.

• Rigid Guidance System: Precision rails ensure vertical alignment over full seam length.

• Quick-Setup Shoes: Interchangeable copper shoes adapt to plate thickness changes.

• Gas Containment: Integrated gas chambers maintain optimal shielding atmosphere.

Application Scenarios:

• Longitudinal seams in crude oil/fuel storage tanks (API 650).

• Water reservoir tanks (>10,000 m³ capacity).

• Chemical storage tanks (acid, alkali, ethanol).

• Tank refurbishment (API 653 repairs).

• Power plant surge tanks & penstocks.

Wincoo Engineering Co., Ltd (WINCOO) is engaged in bringing the most suitable solutions/equipments for client, fabricators, EPC/C companies on pipe fabrication, tank construction, pipeline construction, industrial production lines, clean energy project and other industrial field.

We have ability of providing workable solutions to support clients to be awarded with shorter project execution time, fewer man-hour cost and higher efficiency construction/fabrication method and better quality during phase of project bidding.

Based client’s facility/site space availability, we are able to study/design and present matched configurations on project schedule, quality, cost and productivity to guarantee production pace is accordance with project requirement.

To support project execution, we are always ready to work as fireman to give prompt supply on project materials from different consumables, tools, equipments/machines to special merchandise. With flexibility, we are also glad to perform as procurement agent in China to seek required supply resources.

Our products covers tank welding machine, tank hydraulic jacking system, pipelayer, paywelder, pipeline groove machine, pipeline bending machine and other tank/pipeline construction equipment, etc.

To familiarize clients fast to use equipment/lines/system we supplied, we can arrange engineers to implement installation, training, and commission. Meanwhile, to better support client to finish their projects, we provide operators for construction, operation or we are able to undertake such work as subcontractor.
 

We can provide OEM service, all the equipment/lines supplied we can produce with client’s brand.

To verify what we supply can well satisfy clients’ requirement, we sincerely would like to invite client to visit us before issuing order. We prefer to set factory acceptance test process before shipment to remove clients’ concerns.

Your support is our forward motivation.
