Triclad (TC)

TRICLAD® is the trade name of Merrem & la Porte for aluminium/steel transition joints. In generic terms the product is usually referred to as structural transition joint (STJ). It's cross section consist of an explosion bonded composite of seawater resistant aluminium alloy and C-steel and is usually applied in the form of strips or pads when welding together aluminium and steel structures in ship-and off shore construction.

Detaclad

Is a similar product from DMC (Dynamic Materials Corperation).See Triclad..

Bending/Zetwerk

Is the process of transforming a flat sheet in to a single curved sheet.

• constant radius - bending info on plate indicates the required shape
• non constant radius - 1 or 2 templates indicate the required shape

Restrictions

Aluminum 5083-H321 can be bend to an angle of 45° maximum.

Forming/Drukwerk

Is the process of transforming a flat sheet in to a double curved sheet (compound curvature). The required shape is indicated by 3 or more templates.

CNC machines

The machines which cut the parts from the nest plates.

1. NC machine for aluminium is : BURNY-phantom
2. NC machine for steel is : Snijtech-staal

The settings in manager for both machines are:

• Pierce time:5 seconds
• Cut feed - 4000
• Mark feed - 17000
• fast feed - 20000

These are average times for all thicknesses
