6. INTRODUCTION

Honing classified as an industry process using grinder. Equipment for honing process is a honing
machine set. As the process using grinding machine, material is threw away from rough fiber work piece. In
this case, fiber is combined with adhesive to form grinder stone or abrasive. Honing is an industry process
which results work piece in the certain ways. Basically honing is used to increase the surface geometric
shaped, however it is also used to incr-ease the surface texture.

7. PREPARATION
6.1 Honing Procedure

a. Cleaning
Cleaning the cylinder or pipe which is will be honing.

b. Inspection
Inspection shall conduct by machining operator, contractor and company. Inspection and
measurement of the early dimension, give the deadline of honing work and other works (if
any), such as cleaning welding remains, scratch and etc.

c. Leveling
Leveling the welding remained with grinding or buffing without causing damages to other
components.
d. Buffing

Buffing inside of cylinder/pipe (if any) without causing damaged to other

components.

e. Setting-out
Setting-out the honing machine adapted to work piece.

f. Put a work piece into honing machine and locking done the work piece thus that safe
accordance with the work procedure. All of the work preparation are execute accordance with
operation standard, the K3 laws (HSE regulation), and company policy regulation.
6.2 Refining/Honing Many Type of Cylinder

Refine/honing cylinder without causing damages to component, other systems, and

accordance with company procedure.

a. Honing first step

The first step is done by abrasive stone or rougher abrasive, if the work piece longer than 4
meters, so the honing process is done by alternating each side of the work piece, with using
the tools of additional work table. For pipe with nominal diameters of 12 inches or smaller,
maximum roughness shall not exceed 250 µinches and minimum roughness shall not be less
than 34 µinches. For pipe with nominal diameters larger than 12 inches, the maximum
roughness shall not exceed 500 µinches and minimum roughness shall not be less than 34
µinches.

b. Honing Second work step

The second work step is same with the first step, using grinder stone/finer abrasive. The third
work step and onwards are done until the fineness of cylinder or pipe surface accordance with
the required specifications.

Refining is done for accomplish the final step, which accordance with preferred measure.
c. Cleaning the work piece.

d. Final measurement inspection, components are tested / measured by the proper tools to ensure
the compliance of specification.

e. Dimensional check for inner diameter of pipe after honing process. Measurement method is
vector X-Y and diagonal, and then divided by variable in several spots of checking area,
which shows on the checking table. Please see below, equipment of dimensional ID Pipe
checking (micrometer). The deviation is no more than 0,5 % of nominal ID Pipe.

f. Add Final wall thickness, check and put on the report.

All of the refine/honing works are execute accordance with operation standard, the K3 laws
(HSE regulation) and company policy regulation.

6.3 Roughness Test

Roughness tester is a measurement tool which use to measure the surface roughness, component
of surface texture. This thing is measured by divergence towards real surface normal vector from
the ideal shape. If the divergence is high, it means surface is rough; if the divergence is low, it
means surface is fine. Roughness usually considers as high frequent component, short-length
surface wave is measured. However, practically it is necessary to figure out either amplitude and
frequent to ensure the surface fits to the purpose.
A. Preparation

a. The following items shall be done before Roughness Test :

 Non-destructive examination shall be verified to confirm and accepted result.

 Dimensional inspection with accepted result.

 Full visual inspection for all joint with accepted result.

 Completeness of all fabrication with accepted result.

 Completeness hydrostatic test with accepted result.

b. Inside and outside of piping shall be free from all dirt, debris, oil, rust, scale, paint and all
other foreign matter.
c. Prepare equipment for roughness test and ensure that full function and complete with
certificate calibration from the manufacture.
B. Safety
Safety shall be strictly observed all time during Roughness test. The area shall be
cordoned off with signed board or safety barrier. Are for testing shall be cleaned from dust,
rust, painting work and other foreign matter. Only authorized person is allowed in this area.

C. Roughness Test Procedure

Fineness or roughness surface testing with using roughness tester, which is done in
several sample location to obtain the accurate results, record and acceptance of internal
diameter.

a) Clean up the sample surface area.

b) Mark the testing area.

c) During applying the surface roughness tester, the range requirement for acceptance.
Specific for this pipe spool shall be as per American Gas Association No. 3 / MPMS 14.3.2
para 2.5.1.1 (max 250 Micro inches).
d) Installing detector roughness test instrument in the testing area.

e) Turn on the measurement tool to observe the test result accordance with measurement tool
work operation of roughness tester.

f) Record the result of the test/measurement.

g) Roughness test result Specific for this pipe spool result.

h) Repeat the testing process in several location thereby the results of testing and
measurement are completely accurate.

i) The roughness measurement will take about 8 (eight) spots internal pipe. Please see below
for the location of the spots.

D. Documentation
The roughness test report prepared by sub-contractor and shall be signed by client
representative on site after completion roughness test. The document stated above used in
roughness test shall become part of the manufacture data report.
