Adding Performance Parts To A Crane

Adding enhanced, performance parts is an effective way of increasing the efficiency of an existing crane. Performance parts are specially engineered and designed to meet or surpass the OEM requirements as originally supplied with the crane. Typical performance improvements can include changes to the material, design and/or manufacturing process that improve the effectiveness and even the overall life span of the part. These enhancements may be applied to the […]

Types of Industrial Air Compressors

Industrial air compressors are necessary for many lines of work. Industrial units, unlike their at-home counterparts, are much larger. There are a variety of different styles of compressors that are made specifically for industrial use. Choosing the right air compressor can be a daunting task. When it is all said and done, however, the right compressor can greatly aid in […]

An Overview Of Manufacturing Engineering

Manufacturing engineering is a discipline within engineering. It deals with various manufacturing practices, including the research, design and development of processes, tools, systems and equipment. A manufacturing engineer will spend time developing and creating physical artifacts, production processes, and technology. The discipline is a broad and overarching area of engineering, which also includes the design and development of products. While the discipline can span […]

Industrial Chiller Machines

Industrial chiller machines are a type of machines that remove heat through vapour compression or absorption refrigeration cycle. The process involves installing several pumps, piping, condensers and other cooling systems. An industrial chiller machine utilizes either water vapour or absorption to exclude the heat out of liquids such as water, lithium bromide solution, inhibitors, glycol or other fluids. The equipment […]

Ways To Join Metal

There are many ways of joining metal for engineering purposes. It is the function, strength and quality of the product that will determine what method is best suited for the task. Below are three of the most popular. Welding   Welding is a common joining technique, used to join two metals together by melting and cooling both materials directly. In oxy-acetylene welding a […]

Safe ways of nitrogen generation

Nitrogen is one of the common compounds in the universe. It accounts for about 78% of the universe. Despite this, nitrogen generation is common owing to the many industrial requirements where nitrogen is used. There are two main methods applied in production of nitrogen for industrial purposes. These are the use of pressure swing adsorption technology and the membrane technology. […]

The Battery Manufacturing Process

While the manufacturing process of cells, packs and electrodes for large format batteries is still in its early stages. The development structure of the process must change. Currently it is too expensive and not fast enough to support the production of lithium-ion energy storage. For this technology to fully develop and be successful in current markets, the process of production […]

What is a Cooling Tower?

A cooling tower is a heat exchanger which works by combining air and water in order to reduce the waters temperature. As this occurs, a small volume of water is evaporated, reducing the temperature of the water being circulated through the tower. When the air and water meet, a small amount of water is evaporated which creates a cooling action. The cooled […]

Industrial Cooling Tips: Cut Your Energy Costs

For successful manufacturing operations, cooling is essential. However, cooling can consume a lot of energy. Fuel prices are going up and to this end, it pays to have energy efficient industrial chillers or to choose other efficient cooling systems for your business. Individual Heat Loads Cooling A few years ago, it used to be common to have one cooler being […]

Manufacturing Cycles and the Buyer Manufacturer Relationship – Part 2

Continued From Part 1 A complimentary buyer-manufacturer relationship is not only beneficial in terms of improving output. But also when considering the progression of research and development. Buyers and manufacturers that are both equally and independently involved in developing their research and development faculties, will gain the ability to compliment each other in their gains in this area. It makes logical sense that […]
