CLAMP ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR A CLAMP ASSEMBLY

摘要

A clamp assembly and a method for applying a clamp assembly ( 15 ) at a joint between a first pipe (17) with a length axis (18) and a second pipe (19) with a length axis (20), for securing the two pipes ( 17 , 19) to each other, is described. The clamp assembly (15) comprises a first clamp element (21) and a second clamp element ( 22 ) , wherein at least the first clamp element (21) comprises a first stud means (25) and a second stud means (27). The method comprises the steps of using the clamp assembly as a tool to form grooves by electrical discharge machining and arranging the clamp assembly (15) around the pipes (17, 19) partly in the grooves.
