43-Ton Steel Plate Bent Like Paper. Plate Rolling & Heavy Metal Fabrication - Video

Watch flat steel become perfect cylinders, cones, and vessel heads in a full heavy-fabrication workflow. We follow a 3-roll bending machine forming tank shells to a 2076 mm OD, then lock the seam with submerged arc welding using dual wires and reusable flux. Next, a 3000-ton press brake shapes thick stainless plate, followed by extreme rolling of a 43-ton, 150 mm plate to a 5000 mm diameter. See automatic flanging on dished ends, multi-pass rolling with massive hydraulic force, cone bending with pinching control and radius templates, and hot dishing on a forming press. Finally, dive into welded beam production (nesting → cutting → grinding → tack → coping → welding → gauging → straightening → inspection) and a hot strip mill transforming slabs into kilometer-long coils.
