    The document provides procedures for marking, cutting, and checking shell plates during forming operations. It discusses [1] tolerances for plate dimensions, [2] general considerations when joining plates of different thicknesses, [3] forming processes like rolling, and [4] checking shell ovality and circumference. Good engineering practices for rolling operations are also outlined, such as checking plate diagonals, marking rolling direction, and using templates to check inside diameter.

     PROPER DEVELOPMENT & MARKING OF CONE

     CHECK THE DIAGONALS

     EDGE BREAKING WITH CARE ( D/4 LENGTH )

     KEEP SUITABLE RADIUS GAUGE (HANDY)

     ENSURE THE GENERATOR LINE OF THE CONE IS

    PARALLEL TO THE TOP ROLLER

     TO AVOID FLARE, INCREASE PREISURE SLOWLY


    GOOD ENGINEERING PRACTICES
    ( FOR ROLLING )

     Check diagonals of the plates to be rolled.

     Stamp identification mark on the outer surface of


    the width so that, when the plate is rolled in to a
    shell the identification mark can be seen from
    outside.

     Identification mark should be stamped parallel to


    the width of the plate
    GOOD ENGINEERING PRACTICES
    ( FOR ROLLING )
     Always pain rolling direction with an arrow on the
    plate to be rolled

     Remove burrs, dust, dirt from the edges of the plate


    before it is fed in to rolling machine

     While edge breaking a very long plate, hold one


    end of such plate with crane while other end is
    being edge broken
     While edge breaking a very long plate, hold one end
    of such plate with crane while other end is being
    edge broken.
    GOOD ENGINEERING PRACTICES
    ( FOR ROLLING )

     Always refer capacity chart of a particular rolling


    machine before attempting any bending/rolling on
    that machine
     Check alignment of the rollers, before rolling is
    attempted.
     Ensure that required templates are available before
    rolling is taken up.
     Before taking up s.s plate for rolling, the rollers
    must be thoroughly cleaned with wire brush.
    TOLERANCES ON CIRC. OF SHELLS, D’ENDS , CONES &
    BELLOWS

    • THE REQUIRED CIRCUMFERENCE SHALL BE COMPUTED


    BY THE FOLLOWING METHOD.

    REQUIRED CIRCUMFERENCE = ( ID + 2T ) * PIE


    WHERE,I.D = INSIDE DIA. AS SPECIFIED IN DRAWINGS
    T = ACTUAL THICKNESS MEASURED AT ENDS
    PIE = VALUE OBTAINED FROM CALCULATOR

    • MEASURE THE ACTUAL CIRCUMFERENCE ON THE JOB.


    • ONLY CALIBRATED TAPES SHOULD BE USED FOR MEASUREMENT.
    • COMPARE THESE TWO VALUES OF CIRCUMFERENCE AND CHECK THE
    ACCEPTABILITY BASED ON BELOW GIVEN TOLERANCE CHART.
