Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2022198320A1] A segmentation assembly, including a support framework; a cutting apparatus mounted to the support framework and operable to cut a large workpiece into a plurality of axial segments; and a welding apparatus mounted to the support framework and operable to weld a first plate to a first segment of the plurality of axial segments and a second plate to a second segment of the plurality of axial segments. A method of segmenting a large workpiece, including positioning the large workpiece adjacent a segmentation assembly, the large workpiece including an outer shell elongated along a longitudinal axis of the large workpiece; cutting the large workpiece into a plurality of axial segments along the longitudinal axis; and welding a first plate to a first segment of the plurality of axial segments; and welding a second plate to a second segment of the plurality of axial segments.
