Centrifugal casting process - advantages and disadvantages


Centrifugal casting process

It is the method of producing
castings where molten metal is poured into a mould rapidly moving around a fixed axis. The molten metal come into contact with this rotating mould under a good amount of pressure because of the centrifugal force. This gives a better filling of mould. The casting grain density is also high. As a result the porosity is almost zero.

Electrical Contactors AC1, AC2, AC3, AC4

Image
Electrical Contactors Utilization Categories:- Electrical Contactors are categorized according to the current making and breaking values for contactors. This will depend on the following: The type of load to be controlled (Inductive load, Lighting load, Motor load, Resistive load, Capacitive load) The operating cycle conditions. For any applications there are different contactors available depending upon load application which every electrical engineer you must know before designing any systems.  You may have often seen the ratings described on contactor name plate depicting various parameters. One of most important to be considered are as described in this article.  AC1 - These type of contactors are used for Non-inductive or slightly inductive loads they are used for Heaters which are resistive loads. AC2 - These type of contactors are used in Starting of slip-ring motors AC3 – They are particularly used for Starting of squirrel-cage motors and sw...

LED Photos

OK, this one isn't really a project. But I wanted to share it anyway. One day a bought this little ...light thingy in a junk shop. I didn't really know what it was, but it had LEDs and anyway it was only 1 €... This is what it looks like: It turns out that it has three very bright LEDs in red, green and blue and it works in different modes; one of them is a colour change mode. But it does this
