Boiler barrel repair welding in Lincoln – The home of the best boilermakers since 1805

An ongoing major boiler overhaul received the next part of its puzzle today. A bottom 3rd was welded into the boiler barrel by our coded welder. The original had pitted very badly in the bottom whereas the top half was still in good condition. The owner decided to opt for a repair in the bottom.

The next major part to be removed and replaced with new is the throat plate.

Once the repair has been completed, the joint will be inspected using non-destructive testing techniques to ensure that the repair has been performed correctly and that the joint meets the required safety standards.

Interesting Fact

The first steam boiler made in Lincoln, UK was built in 1805 by a man named Matthew Murray. Murray was a prominent engineer and inventor of the early 19th century who built a steam engine and boiler for the textile industry in Lincolnshire. His boiler was used to power a spinning machine at a local mill and was one of the earliest examples of a high-pressure steam boiler. Murray’s innovations helped pave the way for the Industrial Revolution and the widespread use of steam power in factories and transportation. During his time there was no welding in Lincoln!
