Stelco Audio Visual ServicesSponsor:The Steel Company of CanadaDescription:Stelco revolutionized the way pipes were made by coming up with the new Stelform pipe. These pipes are made with sprial forming that allows for a range of pipe sizes, and allow for the walls of the pipe to be thicker, which results in the pipes being stronger. The pipes are used for the oil and gas industries. The film shows the entire process of making the pipe, and also shows and discusses the quality control and testing to ensure that the pipes are made to the specifications requested by the buyer and the industry. Some of the testing that is done is hydrotesting, unltrasonic inspection and radiographic (x-ray) where the results are captured by a computer and kept on file. <12mn>Language:EnglishDetailed holdings information: -
