Structural & Wind Load Challenges
– The canopy pole supports a 60 m² canopy, requiring exceptional strength due to high wind loads (up to 180 km/h).
– Strict welding and material standards were imposed to ensure structural integrity under extreme conditions.
Precision Engineering & Material Innovation
– Base diameter: 480mm with a 12mm wall thickness – demanding extreme precision in roundness and bending.
– Our 20-year-experienced bending technicians achieved perfect roundness after two prototype iterations, earning client approval.
– Custom high-strength stainless steel 316L:
– Standard yield strength: ~270 MPa
– Our engineered material: 360 MPa (enhanced durability for heavy loads).
High-Standard Welding & Quality Control
– Ultrasonic testing (UT) required – ensuring zero welding defects (no cracks, porosity, or incomplete fusion).
– 20-year-experienced welders performed bevel-edge welding for maximum joint strength.
– Reinforcement design:
– Minimal 50mm-high reinforcing fins (for aesthetics) paired with a 40mm-thick base plate.
– Third-party wind load analysis confirmed stability under 180 km/h winds.
