Tommasin can count on a production with a strongly consolidated production process: flat, conical and hemispherical dished heads formed in a workmanlike manner that guarantees dimensional accuracy and excellent surface finish, thanks to our techinicians' expertise and availability of machines and ground breaking technologies.
Production process - Dished heads
The production cycle begins from the sheet-metal cutting (or from welded sheet metals). The disc is then formed principally in two manners: the crowning-to create a spherical cap and the borders, and the edging-to produce the junction of the crown radius and the cylindrical part.
There are several common types of dished heads depending on the manufacturing. Most of the times the dished heads are semi-manufactured to form pressure vessels under specific laws of the field.

Our materials are in stainless steel and characterized by greater resistance to oxidation and corrosion, carbon steel containing a greater amount of carbon, with a lower melting point, greater flexibility and better heat distribution, aluminum and copper.
Sizing and documentation
Since the offer demand we are able to point out suggestions, advise and answer to all the customer's questions, providing the product techinical and documentation specifications needed (sizing, manufacturing, tests, finishing).
Since the offer demand we are able to point out suggestions, advise and aswer to all the customer’s questions, providing the procuct techinical and documentation specifications needed (sizing, manufacturing, tests, finishing). We provide technical know-how resulting from long-term experience, high-quality systems used every day, and data processing coming from advanced IT (BIM calculation with smartphone included for our team).
Forming
Our core activity is based on material forming process. The two principle phases are those of the crowniing-through rollers-of the dished heads borders.
Thanks to cutting-edge machines 4.0, and a total of 9,000 square meters of factories, Tommasin provides high-quality edging on customers’ request, with respect to the ISO 9001 standard, and delivery on time (every operator is equipped with the android app MyTOM to plan the processes).
Welding
The welding is one of the most specialised process of our production process. We are able to weld several types of materials through different type of welding manufactured by qualified technicians, following constructive codes. Random radiographic tests are also performed on dished heads not to test, in order to keep the standard high and deliver a reliable product to the customer.
Welding
Il tipo di lavorazione dei bordi avviene secondo i vostri desideri ed è possibile grazie alla disponibilità di macchinari di avanzata tecnologia 4.0 dislocati su due poli produttivi per un totale di circa 9.000 mq. Tutti i processi di formatura sono costantemente controllati sia da un punto di vista qualitativo (ISO 9001) che di tempi di produzione (tramite app dedicata android MyTOM a disposizione di ogni operatore).
Surface treatments
We are able to treat stainless and carbon steel dished heads surfaces in line with the market demand. We are able to offer a surface treatment through a cleaning/degreasing system undertaken to offer to our customers a time saving.
Polishing is a surface-cleaning process to obtein uniform polished surfaces. This treatment can be performed manually or automatically to give a perfection and colour to the metal not achievable with automatic machines The mean roughness (Ra)-the arithmetic average of the absolute values of the roughness profile ordinates- is the common parameter adopted to define the level of polishing. For example mirror-like polishings have Ra values under 0.8
Satin finishing is realized using abrasive rollers that scratch/remove material from the surface. The types of grain used are: 80 – 120 – 160 – 180 – 220 – 240 – 280 – 320 – 500 – 800; the numbers indicate the roughness of the finished surface, from the grain 80 that is the most rough to the finest numbered 320. Scotch Brite is realized trhough abrasive rollers (composed of non-woven nylon fiber impregnated with resin and light abrasive) which act by brushing the surface, without however removing material. The types of grain are: 320 – 400. Embellishment is the process of combining pads of different diameters and steps and processing times, to obtain the typical ebossed-manufactured stainless steel tanks.
Sandblasting: metal sandblasting is the process of cleaning carbon steel dished heads surfaces, using a mechanical erosion process obtained with metal grit. Sandblasting allows you to remove all residues resulting from previous processing-from the layers of calamine to those generated by a natural oxidation of metals- or after a heat treatment. It prepares the surfaces for painting and, in general, for the application of a protective layer against corrosion. Sandblasters are the specific blasting machines used to realize metal sandblasting.
Washing/degreasing It is a process performed through the use of surfactant components and jets of hot water under pressure, in order to eliminate the typical dished heads black streaks that remain after the rolling. The degreasing is performed in a specific factory created for the purpose. Therefore we are able to be the only ones in our sector to offer this preparatory service to all future surface processes and much more cheaper than pickling or passivation which, not only have high cost, but are often not possible due to the large size of the dished heads. Thanks to our system we are able to “wash” dished heads with a diameter of up to 3 meters and of any thickness.
Destructive and non-destructive tests
They are applied to materials and dished heads in line with constructive codes and customer's needs. We guarantee test certificates to our costumers thanks to our great amount of technical know-how and qualified technicias trained directly in our factory.
• Destructive tests (the material is literally destroyed) or Tensile test or Ben test or Impact test or Hardness test.
• Non-destructive tests (the test has no invasive and destructive impact on the material) or RT Radiographic Test or PT Penetrant liquids Test or MT Magnetoscopic Test or UT Ultrasonic Test.
Certificates and quality
Conformity assessment is a complex process that takes place in each processing phase, even more supported by the introduction of digital, automated and high-performance machineries 4.0. Our company provide complete documentation of quality tests respecting all the necessary and requested production specifications and tests.
We supply dished heads with all the necessary documentation we provide in advance on request and we manage it thanks to specific IT. Certificate 3.1, 3.2 and AD 2000, TUV; size-related report; ASME and TUV and 2014/68/EU inspections; several reports as tests, heat treatments, RT, PT, etc…
Delivery
Especially in case of big dished heads, we are specialized to provide to the customer all the technical support needed (measures, weight, type of transport required) and suitable transport steel frames (both returnable or not). Since we export throughout the Mediterranean and Europe, we are specialized in creating the right supports for ship, road and container loading. We also manage, on request, the supply at the arrival.
