What is Plasma Arc Welding? Plasma arc welding is a liquid state welding process in which a metal-to-metal bond is formed in the molten state. Hot ionized gases are known as plasmas. These hot ionized gases are used to heat the countertops and compounds are formed by melting. This welding process is the same as … Read more
Introduction Electron beam welding is a liquid welding process. Liquid welding is a welding process in which the metal-to-metal connection is in a liquid or molten state. It is also classified as a new welding process as it uses the kinetic energy of electrons to fuse two pieces of metal together. Take a look at … Read more

Blower is a mechanical equipment. Less electricity required to operate. A little higher amount of electricity is required to operate the … Read more
What is Orifice Meter? An orifice meter is a device used to measure the flow rate of gases or liquids. It basically consists of a measuring orifice, a measuring orifice housing and a measuring tube. Detailed Description of an Orifice Meter Inlet Section: A linear segment that extends from the device and serves as the … Read more
Introduction of Hydraulic Intensifier A hydraulic intensifier is a mechanical device used to increase the pressure intensity of liquids. It harness the energy of large volumes of liquids at low pressure. Some hydraulic machines require high pressures to operate, and this high pressure cannot be achieved with a pump. Some of these hydraulic machines are … Read more
Introduction of Powder Metallurgy Powder metallurgy is a manufacturing process for producing finished or semi-finished products by compacting metal powders into a suitable matrix. This is one of the least expensive processes that provides high quality, high strength, and complex geometries with high accuracy. These factors make this process most suitable for mass production. It … Read more
What is Cutting Fluid? Cutting fluid is a type of coolant having lubricating properties as well which is used in almost all the metalworking processes during different machining operations such as turning, drilling and milling. The metalworking process requires several components such as Machine Tools, Raw Materials, and Appropriate Cutting Tools. Cooling lubricants play an … Read more
A gyroscope is a device used to measure or maintain direction and angular rate. This is a spinning wheel or disc whose axis of rotation is free to orient itself. When rotating, according to angular momentum conservation, the orientation of this axis is unaffected by tilting or rotating the mount. What is Gyroscopic Effect? When … Read more
Introduction of Draft Tube The draft tube is a connecting tube that gradually increases in area from the impeller outlet to the rear barrel. Draft tubes are one of the most important parts of water turbines used to convert water into energy. For better visualization I have shown the image of draft tube. Draft tube … Read more
Introduction Hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) is a type of wet H2S cracking and is typically produced by high concentrations of hydrogen in metals. This mechanism involves the diffusion of atomic hydrogen into the metallic structure. Cracks caused by HIC are formed parallel to the plane and in the hoop stress direction. Hydrogen cracking is more … Read more
