Technology of LIPP steel tank is originated from German, a kind of unique construction method. When tank erection, a certain width of steel plate is rolled by uncoiler and then delivered to molding machine for further processing into geometric shape as required. Then through the bending machine for bending and seaming to form a 30~40mm width of continuous spiral cord around the outward of tank, this structure plays the role of strengthening the tank. The bending for two different materials is also possible through the above machines.
Characteristics of LIPP tanks:
1, Good overall performance and long life-time
The complete construction process is completed by special machine at project site. The bended and seamed spiral cord is five times thicker than material, greatly enhanced the carrying capacity of tank, so that the tank overall strength, stability and shock resistance are all better than other kinds of tanks. In addition, it uses a particularly good anti-corrosion properties of material, which makes it life-time longer than other tanks.
2, Good airtight performance and wide applications
Bending and seaming of steel plate by special machine to ensure the quality of any part of tank, so its sealing is particularly good, especially suitable for tank type wet anaerobic fermentation in the filed of biogas energy.
3, Short construction period and low cost
LIPP tank is on-site building, tank cover is made on the ground. Line speed of molding&bending can reach 5meters/min, set-up of scaffolding and other auxiliary facilities is not required, so as to make construction period very short. Main material is thin steel plate, its weight is only equivalent to the rebar of reinforced concrete tank, this greatly reduces the cost for tank.
4, Small area occupation and easy management
Unlike other steel tank, LIPP tank can be in different dimensions, its diameter and height can be arbitrarily selected in a large range. The distance between two tanks can be minimized at 500mm, space can be fully used. Due to high automation of tank, if coupled with sensors of temperature, feedstock level,etc. management would become very convenient.
