Introduction of Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) The Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) is a tool that uses coordinate technology to measure the dimensions of tools or machine parts. These machines can accurately measure height, depth, and width along the X, Y, and Z axes. If you have an advanced CMM machine, you can also measure targets … Read more
Introduction of Micrometer A micrometer is a precision measuring device used to make very fine measurements. It is also known as micrometer caliper. It is available in metric and imperial units. Metric micrometers typically measure in 0.01 milimeters increments, while imperial versions measure in 0.001 inches. The measurements they provide are more accurate than other … Read more
Introduction of Dial Indicator? A dial indicator can be defined as a small gauge that can be used in various mechanical methods to measure specific deviations in mechanical parts. As for the various components of dial indicators, they consist of pinions, levers and gears. See the below image of dial indicator. However, it can be … Read more
Introduction of Iron Carbon Phase Diagram The iron carbon phase diagram represents the iron-carbon system for alloys containing up to 6.67% carbon and reveals the phase compositions and their transformations that occur in the alloy during cooling or heating. A carbon content of 6.67% corresponds to the solid composition of iron carbide Fe3C. Iron Carbon … Read more
Introduction of Investment Casting Investment casting is a manufacturing process which uses wax patterns to create disposable ceramic molds. It is also called as precision casting or lost wax casting. A wax model is made with the exact shape of the item to be cast. This sample is coated with a refractory ceramic material. Once … Read more
The word 6 stroke engine has referred to many alternative internal combustion engine designs that seek to improve upon traditional 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines. I also written an article on 2 stroke Vs 4 stroke engine. Check out this article to know the difference between 2 stroke and 4 stroke engine. Claimed benefits may include … Read more
In this post, we will discuss about air compressor and all the important things related to the air compressor. Air compressor converts electrical energy into potential energy. What is Air Compressor? An air compressor is a pneumatic device that converts electrical power into potential energy stored in compressed air. Using one of several methods, the … Read more
What is Hydraulic Press? A hydraulic press is a mechanical device based on “Pascal’s Law”, which means that in a closed system the same amount of pressure is applied in all directions. Here it is true that a change in pressure at one point in a closed system will change the same pressure intensity at … Read more
What is Electroplating Plastic? Electroplating plastic is the transfer of dissolved ions from the metal to the plastic part. By separating the metal ions on the plastic surface, the new part retains the properties of both materials. The outside of the part looks like metal and can undergo additional material processing. Electroplating is a common … Read more
What is Brake Booster? A brake booster makes braking easier for the driver by increasing the force applied without adding additional force to the foot pedal. This effect is achieved through the use of a vacuum system. This increases pressure on the master cylinder of the brake pedal lever, which increases pressure on the brakes. … Read more
