In the past, the prevailing cure for a leaking or corroding galvanized-metal cooling tower was either repair or replacement. However, repairs such as re-skinning or coating the tower linings often take weeks and shut down critical processes. Welding patches on galvanized linings might work, but typically not for long. As an example, Marvin Richer – president of Brock Equipment Company, a manufacturer of hydraulic pumps and related tools – says he was tired of “throwing away good money after bad” on metal cooling towers. “We were spending between $5,000 and $10,000 a year on cooling tower repairs – patching metal, putting in rubber seals and gasketing. In other words, ‘band-aid’ fixes just to keep the tower from leaking.” Richer decided to switch to engineered plastic cooling towers. The one-piece shell means no more problems with seams, welds, and patches that wear prematurely. Brock Equipment’s new towers came competitively priced and are also rust and corrosion-proof.

Tubes, pipes, and hoses may seem similar, but they each have unique characteristics and applications. Tubes are hollow cylinders, often made of plastic or metal, used to transport liquids or gases. They are more commonly found in structural applications and are measured by their outside diameter. Tubing can be either flexible or rigid. Pipes are known for their tighter dimensional tolerances. Typically, they are designated by trade size and have an inside diameter close to their nominal size. Pipes are generally rigid. Hoses are flexible pipes, also called hose pipes, designed for easy maneuverability. They are measured by their inside diameter, and connections are made via a "hose barb," where the hose is stretched over a hard nipple on the fitting. Knowing the differences between these components can help you choose the right one for your specific application. #industrialhoses #chickhenderson #IndustrialHoses #PipeFittings #FluidTransfer

Because of its strength, resistance to moisture and electricity, and low cost, plastic piping is a commonly used material with many applications. The process of thermoforming this rigid plastic material involves heating and shaping extruded pipes or hosing using heated compressed air to achieve various shapes for a variety of applications. Bending rigid plastic pipe, regardless of the method used, requires heat and physical bending. Read the complete story at https://lnkd.in/eAE2h7ZZ #tutco #sureheat #process-heaters

Belt Conveyor Adjustment Knowledge ? Belt Deviation Adjustment Cause: Belt deviation often occurs. It may be due to inaccurate installation of rollers and idlers, uneven material distribution, or uneven belt wear. Adjustment: For head roller - caused deviation, adjust the bearing housings. For middle parts, move the idler groups. Adjust in small increments and observe. ? Tension Adjustment Importance: Appropriate tension is key. Incorrect tension can cause slipping, wear, and other issues. Methods: There are gravity - type, screw - type, and hydraulic - type tensioning devices. Use a tension meter to adjust properly. ? Cleaning Device Adjustment Function: To remove belt - surface residues, which can damage components if not cleaned. Adjustment: Ensure proper contact pressure of the scraper or brush. Check and replace them regularly. Install the device accurately. #beltconveyor #conveyor #cement #industry #factory #roller #manufacture #cementplant #engineering

Let's talk a little bit about Couplings... #Couplings are devices that connect two shafts to transmit power, compensating for misalignments and absorbing vibrations. They are essential for protecting equipment and ensuring efficient operation. #Main_types: 1. #Rigid: Connects shafts directly without flexibility, ideal for cases with no misalignment. Examples include flange and sleeve couplings. 2. #Flexible: Compensates for slight misalignments and vibrations, suitable for systems with minor misalignments. Examples include gear and grid couplings. 3. #Elastic: Uses materials like rubber or polyurethane to absorb shocks, useful in applications with high impact. Examples include jaw and rubber couplings. These types are chosen based on application needs, considering factors such as alignment, load, and environment. Selecting the correct coupling improves equipment lifespan and system efficiency, making it essential across various industries. #Industrial_maintenance #Machines_Elements

What is the purpose of the spring used in #oil #seals? The spring provides loading around the sealing circumference and keeps the sealing #lip tight against the shaft surface. Some seal designs use a garter spring design, which applies pressure everywhere around the shaft. Other seal styles employ a finger spring design, which provides an independent finger action only in areas where needed. Spring dumping can happen to garter springs, as they typically rest inside a molded groove disconnected from the sealing lip. If the spring dislodges during installation, for example, it can enter the equipment at startup, often causing serious damage to expensive #bearings and other equipment. Finger spring designs, however, are usually either molded in or mechanically connected to the seal so the #spring will not fall off or damage the #equipment. #rotary #sealing #shaft #machines #bearings

?? **Understanding the Trouble and Avoidance of Mini Cylindrical Rollers** ?? Accurate diagnosis of mini cylindrical rollers is crucial to prevent repeated failures and rising costs. By reducing wear and friction, we can significantly extend their service life! ??? **Key Tips:** - Use grease for lubrication to simplify the sealing system and enhance performance. - If you notice corrosion on the needle roller surface, ensure proper cleaning first. Choose the right method—solvent, chemical, or mechanical—based on the rust condition. - After cleaning, dry thoroughly using compressed air or a dryer set at 120-170℃. For optimal performance, ensure the stamped outer ring is immersed in anti-rust grease, controlling the oil film thickness through temperature or viscosity. #Engineering #Maintenance #MiniCylindricalRollers #Lubrication #PreventiveMaintenance

Pipe #Ovality, the uneven #roundness of extruded finished pipes, is a common issue in #extruded plastic pipes where the diameter measured horizontally and vertically varies. Pipe standards define acceptable tolerances for diagonal measures based on each nominal #diameter size. If ovality surpasses these limits, identifying causes and implementing corrections is crucial. Various factors can lead to pipe ovality, such as incorrect centricity of the die head to the vacuum tank, mechanical stress during the extrusion process, differential cooling rates inside chambers, and the coiling process affecting ovality due to various factors like bending radius and winding tension. In the event of ovality in the product, investigating the root cause is essential to implement appropriate corrective measures. Understanding the causes and addressing them promptly is key to maintaining quality standards. #plasticindustry #production #productivity #pipe #extrusion

Hydraulic Hose Connectors Hydraulic hose connectors are crucial components in hydraulic systems, facilitating the secure and efficient transfer of hydraulic fluid between different parts of the machinery. These connectors come in various types and sizes to match the specific requirements of the system, ensuring compatibility and optimal performance. The primary function of a hydraulic hose connector is to provide a leak-proof connection between hoses, pipes, and other hydraulic components. This is vital in maintaining the integrity of the hydraulic system, preventing fluid leaks that could lead to system failure or environmental contamination. Common types of hydraulic hose connectors include quick-connect couplings, flare fittings, and O-ring face seal fittings, each designed to handle different pressure ratings and applications. Material choice is another critical aspect, with connectors often made from stainless steel, brass, or other durable metals to withstand high pressures and corrosive environments. #Connectors #HydraulicHoseConnectors
