Red-D-Arc helps construction firm complete heating project more quickly

A construction company completed a pipe-heating project sooner with Red-D-Arc's help.

For many years, Red-D-Arc Welderentals has helped companies in a variety of industries with its top welding and heating solutions. The company has logged a wealth of success stories by helping customers not only find more efficient and safe processes, but also improve their business in the process. Most recently, Red-D-Arc helped a construction company beat its competition with an induction heating system and more during a pipeline project.

Heating system, generator, and panel

This construction firm was in the field and trying to heat pipe, 42 inches in diameter, with pear burners to allow welders to weld out the joints. The task needed to be completed quickly, so the company turned to the Red-D-Arc team for a better solution.

Red-D-Arc put together a custom package to make the project go more quickly. This portable package included a Miller ProHeat 35 induction heating system, a 60-kVA generator, and a DP25 power distribution panel. With this package, the customer could heat the pipe as hot as 250 degrees Celsius in only five minutes. Another key advantage of this custom turnkey package was the reduced safety risk to the welders from the hot pipe. It was an ideal way to heat pipes in remote work locations.

This kind of portable custom package is part of Red-D-Arc’s specialty. The company has ample experience and skill in creating these turnkey packages to tackle challenges in many sectors. Customers in mining, oil and gas, offshore, nuclear power, and general manufacturing have used these packages, which blend the latest technology, deep expertise, and flexible leasing options to help these users become more competitive. Remote worksites are not a problem for Red-D-Arc, which can supply portable generators to keep portable welders, lighting, an induction heating system, and any other equipment going as long as necessary.

With this package, the construction company found it could beat its competitors’ target time by more than 19 hours. Since then, the firm’s client has asked for quotes on more pipeline work. So Red-D-Arc helped boost the success of yet another business, with a perfect solution.
