DOMESTIC LPG CYLINDER MANUFACTURING

Hello Everyone today i am going to share the manufacturing process of a LPG gas cylinder step by step

LPG gas Cylinder mfg process

ØEnd Covers
1.Cutting of blank
2.Deep draw
3.Joggling
4.Punching
5.Welding of valve

ØAssembly


1.Fitment of part in Fixture 
2.Welding of parts in Welding SPM

ØTesting


1.Leakage Test
2.Hydraulic Test
3.Burst Test
4.SST Test

So starting from Phase -1 i.e manufacturing of End covers first of all blanking is done by a blank cutter to a defined size

            








 After Cutting the Blank of desired size the blanks are shifted to a double acting hydraulic press. as seen below


After deep Drawing operation we do trimming of the ends then we create a joggle so that both can be fixed properly 

After That Piercing of shell to be done so that we can fit valve to it

After piercing welding of valve port to be done

Now it's turn of doing assembly of child parts

As we have provided joggle in one part which helped us in fitment during assembling time

Welding of both shell by SPM
(NOTE: the welding M/c has protective cover and never done in open the snap here is instant click before closing of welding SPM door)
After  that the welding of cylinder holder to be done 
Then we apply Zinc coating to cylinders to avoid them from rust
Then we perform a series of test as their severity is very high


1,Hydraullic Leak test
Water is filled to cylinder with very high pressure
After getting successfully passed on hydraulic test water is removed from it through water removing m/c
then after the another gas leakage test is done by filling air high pressure (More then inside filled cylinder)
and dipping in water 
After completion of leakage test internal cleaning of cylinder is done 
And our LPG Cylinder is ready for dispatch

A burst test is also performed once in 6 months to calculate the pressure up-to which the cylinder can sustain 

It is generally performed with the help of liquid rather then with the help of gas as gas may be very dangerous to perform this process

  3. LPG valves play a crucial role in emergency situations, as they allow for quick shut-off in case of a gas leak or fire, mitigating potential damage and ensuring the safety of occupants and property.
