will be seeded up. The process will continue until the target length is completed.
The HDPE pipe will be welded using heat fusion bonding. This is a combination of
temperature and force resulting in two mating surfaces flowing together to produce a joint.
Fusion bonding occurs when the joint cools below the melting temperature of the material.
There is a temperature range within which any particular material may be satisfactorily
joined. The specified temperature used requires consideration of the properties of the
specific material, the fusion equipment being used and the welding environment.
For HDPE pipe welding, the Mirror welding machine shall be heated by electricity since
electric heating plates can maintain consistent fusion temperatures when provided with an
adequate power source. Electric heating plates for general fusion use shall be controlled
thermostatically and capable of being adjusted over a temperature range from 150° to
300°C. For welding of HDPE, the temperature thermostat shall be set according to
manufacturer’s recommendation. The mirror (heating plate) shall be equipped with a
thermometer or other built‐in temperature measuring device and shall also have sufficient
area to adequately cover the ends of the pipe to be joined.
The alignment jig shall consist of two fixed and two movable clamping blocks for holding
the two parts to be fused in movable axial alignment. One shaver for simultaneously
preparing the ends to be joined. Appropriate adapters “inserts” for different pipe sizes.
Once the butt‐welding is done in several phases and by using several parameters. The
operations can be summarized as follows:
4) Cleaning of surfaces.
5) Heating of surfaces.
6) Fusion of surfaces.
The welding zone must be protected from unsuitable weather conditions (e.g., humidity
effects, wind and temperatures below 0°C). The surfaces to be joined must be undamaged
and free from impurities or loose particles.
The pipes must be aligned when they are clamped into the mirror welder in such a way
that the surfaces are in the same plane (parallel) to each other. The HDPE pipes can be
positioned directly into the welding machine. Install the correct adapter insert for the size
of pipe diameter to be used and tighten them to the machine.
Position the pipe in a way that approx. 40mm is protruding behind the last clamp. By doing
this, you will have approx. 10 to 15mm to shave from, and the remaining 25 to 30 mm
should be sufficient for welding.
Once the pipe has been placed in position, the top clamps can be closed. It is important to
tighten the top clamp nuts evenly in order to get a totally circular pipe, an even clamping
pressure must be achieved. Then, make the first dry matching (press the two pipes to
each other) and check the amount of shaving that will be required.

After the dry matching is completed, open up the pipes and introduce the shaver. Turn the
shaver on and adjust to a suitable speed.
Press the two pipes together, and shave until a continuous strip of HDPE is peeling off on
both sides of the shaver. Once constant peeling off is observed, release the pressure on
the pipes and separate the pipes. Do not turn off the shaver until the pipes are apart. If the
shaver is stopped during shaving, the shaver will create an end cut-mark and the shaving
operation will have to be repeated.
Remove the shaver, match the pipes again, and check the pipe for proper alignment.
Sometimes, even when continuous peeling off is achieved on each side of the shaver, the
pipes do not match properly. This is normally due to the clamps, which are pressing on to
the pipe with different pressures. Re-tightening the nuts slightly on either side is one
solution. But, if this does not help, swimming normally does the job. Open one clamp and
insert a shim in between the jaws and the pipe. This shim will concentrate the pressure on
to the pipe and move the pipe into alignment. It is important to remember that, if the clamp
has been opened during operation, the shaving operation must be repeated.
Once the pipes are correctly aligned, separate the pipes again for cleaning. Remove chips
inside the pipes on both sides, all chips scattered under the pipes, and inside the machine.
Otherwise, they will stick to the mirror (heat plate) later while re-heating. Remove the chips
by using a brush or a small hook made of a thin steel wire. Never put any dirty gloves
inside the pipe or remove the chips with your hands. Do not touch the shaving pipe ends.
To be on the safe side, always clean the surface with a clean rag and mineral
spirits/alcohol before you introduce the mirror.

Before you introduce the mirror, you should have all parameters available for this
operation. Also check the mirror temperature. Normally, the mirror has a yellow or red
lamp, which tells you if the mirror has reached working temperature. To make sure there is
no cold air flowing through the pipe, place some plastic bags on each end of the pipe, this
will prevent the air from cooling the mirror on one side. You have now shaved the pipe into
a good fit and removed the shaver and introduced the mirror.
Push the pipes together against the mirror and raise the pressure to the Bead-up
pressure. This pressure needs to be maintained until the Bead-up height has been
reached. The bead up height is the height of the bead, which is pressing up against the
mirror.
As soon as the Bead up height has been reached, release the pressure down to the Heat
Soak pressure. Heat soak pressure is the pressure maintained during the Heat Soak time.
As soon as the heat soak time has elapsed, separate the pipes, remove the mirror, and
then press together.
This operation must be done quite fast since there is a time limit “Transfer time” from the
removal of the mirror until the two pipes are pressed together and reach the Fusion
pressure.
Fusion pressure is the pressure that shall reach during the Transfer time and maintained
during the Cooling time.
Cooling time is the time in which the pipe must be left undisturbed. Under no
circumstances shall the clamps be opened, or the pressure released until the cooling time
has elapsed.
The mirror-welding machine, if coupled to a data log, will give a print-out confirming the
parameters used during welding of a specific seam and approval/rejection of the welded
seam.
A well-formed bead that is within the Max / Min measurements as previously described.
(Bead size is a good measure of heating phase consistency, therefore the use of a digital
Vernier to measure the volume of material displaced at the completion of a butt-welded
joint is recommended) Faults as misalignment, porosity, and cracking.
Ensure the groove between the two beads does not continue into the pipe wall (usually
caused by extended changeover (dwell) times or when pressure is not maintained during
cool times).
Undersized bead size can be caused by extended changeover (dwell) time’s low heat,
short heat times, low pressure, and failure to maintain pressure during cool times or simply
the welder coming to the end of its travel without the operator noticing, these issues can
be checked by bead measurement.
Oversized beads can be caused by high heat, extended heating times, excessive
pressure, bringing pressure up to rapidly.
If poor quality of weld seam result was observed a corrective measure must be
undertaken before proceeding to the next joint.
Twist the beads at several positions. If the bead is seen to split at any point, then the joint
must be cut out from the pipeline and remade. If a similar defect re-occurs, cease all
further jointing until the equipment has been thoroughly cleaned, examined and new trial
joints have been made and shown to be satisfactory.
Discharge groundwater shall be monitored and tested in order to check the quality during
