Abstract:
1. Machining equipment for an integrated piping plate composed of a plurality of plates joined together, and in which an instrument and a component constituting an apparatus are disposed, or the instrument is disposed, or the component is disposed, on one of or both of surfaces of the integrated piping plate, and the instrument and the component are connected, or the instrument is connected, or the component is connected, by fluid channel grooves formed in joining surfaces of the plates, and communication holes formed in the plates, and comprising: plate supply means for supplying the plates having the fluid channel grooves, or the communication holes, or the fluid channel grooves and the communication holes, formed therein beforehand; weld groove machining means for forming grooves for weld grooves in the plates, which have been supplied by the plate supply means, so as to extend along entire periphery of the fluid channel grooves, the plate supply means supplying one plate from one direction and superimposing the same on another plate supplied from another direction; and welding means which, in succession to machining of the grooves for the weld grooves by the weld groove machining means, welds the grooves for the weld grooves to weld the joining surfaces of the superimposed plates around the entire periphery of the fluid channel grooves, thereby joining the plates.
