Boiler manufacturing is an engineering process that involves designing, cutting, bending, welding, testing, and inspecting metal parts to create a pressure vessel for steam generation. This process has its own steps and requirements depending on the type of boiler (such as firetube or watertube) and its application (industrial, heating, etc.). Learn more.
Steps to build a steam boiler:
Training personnel in boiler operation.
1. Design:
Determine the required thermal capacity based on process requirements.
Selecting the type of boiler (firetube, watertube or coiled) and designing the main components (shell, coil, burner, etc.).
Calculating the dimensions and thickness of parts based on working pressure and temperature.
Selecting the right materials for building a steam boiler (fireproof steel sheets and seamless pipes).
Boiler control and safety system design.
2. Construction:
Cutting and shaping steel sheets based on design drawings.
Welding of boiler parts using skilled welders and in accordance with standards.
Installing pipes and heating coils inside the boiler.
Installation of auxiliary equipment such as burners, pumps, valves and sensors.
Conducting hydrostatic and radiographic tests to ensure manufacturing quality.
3. Installation and setup:
Installing the boiler in the desired location.
Connecting the boiler to plumbing, electrical, and control systems.
Initial boiler startup and adjustment of control parameters.
