Steel Tubing Production<\/h1>\n

Schiedel are experts in flue and chimney systems, which means the factories, all around Europe are geared up to producing steel tubing in various diameters, rapidly and efficiently.<\/h2>\n

With the current COVID-19 Crisis, resulting in drastically reduced shipping and lack of raw materials, traditionally shipped from overseas, means that having a reliable UK based and well stocked factory becomes critical.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629376112966{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Schiedel\u2019s factory in Washington, Tyne & Wear was originally established in the late 60\u2019s as Rite-Vent, who are still a renowned name within the industry and experts in the UK steel tubing manufacturing industry.\u00a0Schiedel have subsequently invested in the factory, culminating in a massive turnaround and receiving a set of BMI World Class Status Awards for 5 years running<\/p>\n

Out of 120 plants, only 3 (including Washington) have been awarded World Class Status, which means that Schiedel Chimney Systems in Washington are now one of the plants held up as an example to others on how to maximise efficiency.\u00a0This means that the extra investment into the plant was rewarded with advanced machines such as the flexible tubing machine.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629376132756{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n

Different diameter pipes with no additional setup or tooling<\/h2>\n

The Weil Flexistar machine is a cutting-edge technology machine, which rapidly produces steel tubing with minimal manual labour, and can take sheets of steel and produce steel tubes within seconds. The great advantage of the Flexistar is that no additional setup or tooling is required when changing diameter to produce piping.<\/p>\n

This production line combined with a dedicated Paint Plant, located in Schiedel Chimney Systems\u2019 factory means that steel tubing can be finished in any colour to match customer aesthetics using standard colour matching swatches and test samples.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator color=”black” style=”dotted”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629369452085{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n

Robotic facilities<\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”14937″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629369747482{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Our robot has reduced the manual handling time needed for steel tubing to be moved from our dynamic diameter production machine to the inspection stage.<\/p>\n

This allows us to produce more steel tubing to meet the needs of our many distributors and OEM partners.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629369470324{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n

Laser cutting<\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16296″ img_size=”275×155″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629369277510{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]The process is where the high-power laser is directed to the material and burns and cuts away the required area, with a high-quality surface finish. The machine at Schiedel can cut varying maximum thicknesses. It\u2019s a closed machine, with the laser unit, safely integrated within. The quality is excellent, and the speed is rapid. facilities within the factory include laser cutting.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629376016333{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Check out the video below:[\/vc_column_text][vc_video host=”self_hosted” mp4=”https:\/\/www.schiedel.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2021\/08\/advanced-manufacturing-robot-facilities.mp4″ autoplay=”true”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629376016333{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Check out the video below:[\/vc_column_text][vc_video host=”self_hosted” mp4=”https:\/\/www.schiedel.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2021\/08\/paint-plant-painted-components-to-the-customer-specification.mp4″ autoplay=”true”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629376016333{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Check out the video below:[\/vc_column_text][vc_video host=”self_hosted” mp4=”https:\/\/www.schiedel.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2021\/08\/dynamic-steel-tube-production-with-multiple-diameters.mp4″ autoplay=”true”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629376679375{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1629376645367{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n
