The steel pipe industry plays a critical role in energy transportation, municipal infrastructure, water conservancy projects, and industrial pipeline systems. It covers the manufacturing of seamless steel pipes, spiral welded pipes, large-diameter thick-walled pipes, oil and gas transmission pipelines, and municipal pipeline networks.
Modern pipeline engineering requires high-performance materials such as line pipe steel (X42–X70), high-strength steel, and corrosion-resistant steel. These materials demand precise forming control to ensure structural integrity, long service life, and safe operation under high pressure and harsh environments.
Key manufacturing challenges include poor flatness of raw steel plates, unstable rolling accuracy (roundness error ≤2 mm/m), and inconsistent weld quality during pipe forming. These issues directly affect pipeline strength, sealing performance, and operational safety in long-distance transportation systems.
EZHONG provides advanced plate rolling and leveling equipment designed to support high-precision pipe forming for large-diameter and heavy-wall steel pipes.

In steel pipe production, the Plate Rolling Machine is the core equipment used to form steel plates into cylindrical pipe shells for welding and assembly.
EZHONG heavy-duty rolling machines are widely used for:
Large-diameter spiral welded pipes
Long-distance oil and gas transmission pipelines
Thick-walled pressure steel pipes
Municipal and industrial pipeline systems
Steel pipe corridor structures
The equipment supports forming of Φ508–1422 mm (20"–56") large-diameter pipes, ensuring stable cylindrical accuracy and consistent welding preparation quality.
Pipeline manufacturing requires extremely stable forming performance due to strict requirements for roundness, weld alignment, and long-distance structural reliability.
EZHONG CNC plate rolling machines provide:
High-precision cylindrical forming with roundness error ≤ 2 mm/m
Stable processing of high-strength pipeline steel (X42–X70)
Efficient forming cycles for mass production (≤ 8 minutes per pipe section)
Support for 7–40 mm thick steel plates and 12-meter-wide plates
Integrated automation for continuous pipe production lines
These capabilities ensure that pipe shells meet strict structural and welding requirements for downstream SAW (Submerged Arc Welding) processes.
EZHONG 12-meter full hydraulic three-roll plate rolling machine is specifically designed for large-diameter welded pipe production lines and heavy pipeline manufacturing applications.
