In recent years, AXIS a.s. has also focused on the production and installation of pipe
expansion joints. The production of the compensator itself takes place directly in the
workshop, including the installation of all insulating elements and cover plates or the partial
production of segments that are assembled and welded directly on the installation site. This
saves a significant part of the cost for any possible oversizes and handling.
Implementation / shutdown is then carried out in subsequent steps:
-removal / cutting of the existing damaged expansion joint
-welding of the new compensator on site, including complex installation of insulation
-location / placement in right position and welding of the new compensator to the pipeline
All works are monitored by our specialist, including welding supervision with documenting all
necessary authorisations.
