Abstract
Abstract A method of and device for making laminated pressure containers, according to which the metal sheet to be applied onto another metal sheet, e.g. of a core pipe, is provided with two rows of bores at the ends of the metal sheet to be applied. These bores are engaged by two rows of studs which are operable respectively to enter the two rows of bores and to pull toward each other the metal sheet ends provided with the bores, whereupon the pulled together ends are welded together.
