Magnetically Impelled Arc Butt Welding Principles

Magnetically impelled arc butt (MIAB) welding (sometimes referred to as rotating arc welding) is a rapid, clean, and reliable arc welding process that employs forging to produce the finished weld. As such, it is classified as an electric arc welding process since that is the energy source for producing melting or fusion, even though pressure from forging is needed to complete the weld. It is

Abrasive Jet Machining (AJM) Process Advantages and Disadvantages

Abrasive Jet Machining (AJM) Principles In abrasive jet machining process, a focused steam of abrasive particles (of size 10 to 40 microns) carried by high pressure gas or air at a velocity of about 150 to 300 m/sec is made to impinge on the work surface through a nozzle, and the work material is removed by erosion by the high velocity abrasive particles. The inside diameter (ID) of the

A MythTV Remote Control without LIRC

Features Relatively easy to build Emulates a keyboard, so it needs no driver Costs around 10 € Is easy to configure, in under one minute Works with most remote controls Can easily be customised for other HTPC software Introduction I was always very fascinated with Objective Development's software implementation of a USB driver for Atmel controllers called V-USB. On their web site, they

Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW)-TIG welding operations

Gas-tungsten arc welding (GTAW) uses a permanent, non-consumable tungsten electrode to create an arc to a workpiece. This electrode is shielded by an inert gas, such as argon or helium (or a mixture of the two), to prevent electrode degradation; hence the older, common names tungsten-inert gas (TIG) and heli-arc welding. As shown in Figure below, current from the power supply is passed to the

Aluminothemic Welding or Thermit Welding Principles

Aluminotherrnic welding is commonly known as Thermit welding. As a subset, these processes use the heat from highly exothermic chemical reactions of solid, particulate materials (or, occasionally, solid particles and a gas) to produce melting and joining, also called coalescence, between metals. Most often, the reactants employed are oxides with low heats of formation and metallic reducing

Miller TIG Welder - Dynasty Series Review and Classification

Miller Welders are one of the most famous manufacturers of TIG welding equipment. Performing TIG welding perfectly is an art. And for a clean, successful and accurate TIG weld we need efficient welders and efficient welding machine. Miller TIG welder always comes handy in achieving the desired weld. Miller manufactures two types TIG of welding equipment AC/DC all type metal welder (including

Different Miller TIG Welder Models

Welding is an art. There are different types of welding methods. TIG or Tungsten Inert Gas Welding is technique for great welded joints. TIG or Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) needs some great craftsmanship to master. And for this reason we need some decent welding machine from a renowned company. Miller TIG Welder is great when it comes to weld an accurate and clean weld. Please Read : Miller

Miller BOBCAT 250 EFI Rugged welder / generator is a very good equipment for Stick as well as Flux-Cored Welding. It can be used for construction and maintenance /repair operations. It is quitter. There is improvement on the sound level. So there is significant improvement in the jobsite communication as a result a safer and more efficient working environment is guaranteed. Miller bobcat 250

Catalytic converters- Dual bed and three way catalytic converters

Catalytic Converters Catalytic converter is a way of treating exhaust gases. These convert harmful pollutants into harmless gases. A catalyst is a material that causes chemical change without entering into chemical reaction. In effect the catalyst encourages to react with each other. For example, in the HC/CO catalytic converter, the catalyst encourage5 the HC to unite with oxygen to produce

TIG Welding Basics

The History of TIG Welding Russel Meredith applied for a patent for TIG or GTAW in 1941. He is most credible for the invention of TIG welding. The main application of TIG or GTAW is found in effective welding of light aircraft. MIG welding of GMAW was invented before TIG welding but light aircrfat welding needed more reliable welding as well as more fusion power and TIG welding is very

Connecting Rod Bearing Failure Analysis

Connecting rod big-end bearings are precision-insert bearings. The insert-type bearing is usually not adjustable. However, it can be replaced, if the rod, crankpin, and other engine components are in good condition. When a rod bearing falls, an analysis should be made to determine the cause. Then the cause can be eliminated so that the failure will not repeated. Lets move into the failure

Best Automobile Engineering Books to study

Automobile engineering is an indispensable part of Mechanical Engineering. Many mechanical engineering students study this discipline only get themselves acquainted with this subject. Most of the students choose Mechanical Engineering to get themselves familiar with the mechanism of automobile. Automobile Engineering Books are must for those students. Proper guidance from teachers is of course

Best Mechanical Engineering Books PDF Format for Students

The purpose of this article is to create a list of mechanical engineering books for the core courses of Mechanical Engineering. There are a number of books available for the meticulous study of Mechanical Engineering subjects. If we were able to study all the books of ME core courses then it would have been great ! But sadly it is not possible. And most of the times it is not possible to buy all
