Etched glass panels are great on standard tempered glass doors as well as hurricane impact glass inserts. This door option works great for those who are living by the coast or near the bay. In fact, many homeowners decided to convert their front doors into hurricane impact glass doors for added protection. Now, the major concern would be how to make this conversion without compromising the tropical and casual feel that living in the area provides. Well, obviously, the simple answer is by adding an etched design using diamond cutting tools.
 
The most common design idea to complement the tropical lifestyle is the leaf pattern etched on your glass panels. If privacy is a primary concern for you, then the glass etching can be done with diamond cutting tools on the outside panel. This will allow the pattern to be displayed on the street view without compromising your privacy. This technique is known as glue chip wherein the light is allowed to enter through the glass but its texture still gives privacy to the interior.  
 
In order to achieve the desired pattern or design, glass etching involves a layered process where a definite method is done to remove the template for etched panels. A very sharp instrument is needed, which is why this work is usually conducted with diamond cutting tools. This results in the correct sequencing of shadows and layers of glass etching. You may opt for a simple or more intricate design to be etched on your impact glass door. You may even combine different designs together to create a new and unique pattern. Your choices are almost unlimited and your imagination is the only limit. Make sure you consult with a qualified service provider with any of your design ideas or even without it. The craftsman will discuss and put it all together for you, giving you the best possible result for a beautiful and eye-catching glass door by the bay.

If you use an impact mill or hammer mill, you feed the product that needs to be processed inside the mill through an inlet box found on top and it is already pre-crushed by a main beater tool as the top of the rotor is reached. Moreover, the beaters will have the product accelerated and move it right through the milling zone proper near the rotor’s side. The grinding stock will then be fluidized inside the air flow and will be comminuted by the grinding tools (stator or rotor). Stator is made by a covering that encloses rotor. Inside this cover is provided with toothed grooves that run vertically that is crosswise to the sense of rotation to the rotor.

Outside the rotor, it is being covered by various U-shaped sections that form in to some deep cassette-type of structure. Furthermore, this geometry then produces an extreme whirls of air inside the grinding zone of the rotor that induce an intense secondary comminution courses because the particles are crashing right into each other and also due to the shearing forces and friction. You can adjust your hammer mill’s final particle size from a wide array. This is done by modifying the rotor speed, grinding rotor clearance, and the air flow.

Aside from pulverization in the <100 um range, its impact mill truly demonstrated a highly reliable as well as efficient when taking out fibers from the organic substances including cellulose, paper and paperboard. It is also very much reliable in cryogenic grinding, grinding or drying, grinding-coating and combined grinding and blending.

In the market, there are different hammer mill varieties being sold. As the buyer, you need to ascertain from whom you should buy and the kind of hammer mill that your company needs. When choosing the right mill for your company, you can seek the assistance of experts or professionals who have ample experience in the industry. There are the so-called micro-grinding impact mill systems which are typically designed to be efficient, fast and long lasting.

You can also choose the freestanding 16 inches hammer mill which is designed specifically for larger productions of processing ultra-fine pulverization of materials. The equipment can produce as fine as 200 mesh which would be dependent upon the material. The 11 inches bench unit is also out in the market and can produce some 100 mesh fineness during the first pass. Every hammer mill has two outlets for the removal of ore.

These outlets will allow you to run the ore dry or wet. For the 11 inches bench unit, the ore bin along with vacuum bag attached will collect the very dry ultra-fine powder as it exits by the top outlet down onto the hose. In running your material wet, you can make use of the bottom outlet or place a cap on the top outlet. Both mills are designed in order to create minimal dust leakage so that there will be an air control of the environment. During 2013, standard units usually come with carbide tipped hammers in order to promote greater wear ability.  

In every industry, one of the top priorities in workplaces is the use of safety gears such as aerial equipment.

Paints and coating systems come in different types and are used for numerous commercial and industrial applications. They are also commonly associated with architectural welded wire mesh purposes. There are two major types of coating systems: one-component or two-component systems. The first type is consisting of thermoplastic acrylics, elastomeric acrylics and self-crosslinking thermoplastic acrylics. The second one is composed of acrylic or epoxy and acrylic polyurethane. Of all these coatings, acrylic latex or acrylic emulsion is commonly used.
 
They are applicable for all three coating categories namely, product finishes for OEM, architectural welded wire mesh coatings, and specialty coatings. In addition to paints, protective coatings can also be based on acrylic emulsion such as the paper coatings, fabric and leather finishes, and floor polishes. They can also be used in different coating formulations, including waterborne, solvent-based, radiation-curable and powder coats. After surpassing the alkyd finishes in the last years, acrylic surface coatings become the leading finish used in the welded wire mesh industry.     
 
In the last seven years, consumption of architectural wire coatings rose globally. Now, they account for around 25% of the entire coating industry. Due to environmental concerns, there has been a growing trend of switching towards the use of waterborne acrylics in automotive and welded wire mesh coatings. Meanwhile, acrylic latex coatings enjoyed a good share in the Western European and North American market as an effective replacement for solvent-based coat formulation for architectural wire applications. The demand for these coatings is expected to grow as a great alternative for low-durability and low-quality budget coating.  
 
These results did not happen for no reason. Coatings based on acrylic polymers offer excellent resistance to UV light, making them durable for exterior use. They also have great colour and gloss retention ability, can maintain clarity, keep their flexibility and resistance to chalking or grain cracking over wood substrate. Add to that their hydrolytic stability and wide range of compositions that can be customised for various welded wire mesh applications.  

Either you are a buyer or a seller, buying used equipment in equipment auctions is a win-win situation. However, there are still many buyers who are thinking more about the risks involved in doing so. That is the mindset that the machinery found at an auction is not in good working condition. This is because some of the industrial machines may not have been maintained properly by the previous owner. But this can be avoided by choosing a service provider or auctioneer with a proven track record of integrity and honesty.
 
The auctioneer should provide an honest assessment of any of the industrial machinery being sold and a clear indication that the machine has been fully inspected or not. More importantly, there must be a detailed description of the current condition of the equipment being auctioned. In addition, opt for equipment auctions that have good reputation in the industry, with auctioneer that has exceptional customer service who’s willing to do a full inspection if requested. Once this has been established, then all the benefits provided by industrial machinery auctions can be enjoyed. These include the two major benefits for buyers and sellers alike.
 

• Cost: For buyers, the most obvious benefit of sourcing machinery at auction is a cheaper cost which translates to significant savings. This can spell the big difference between recognizing a big loss of buying much more expensive new equipment and high profitability of purchasing used but quality machines. For the part of a seller, it means getting the best price possible by having access to a wider, tested platform of equipment auctions.

 

• Speed: For sellers, it’s clear that they can get their old equipment sold fast by reaching to a wider customer base of a reputable auctioneer than doing the actual selling themselves. While for buyers, it goes the same way of getting the equipment they need quickly for their manufacturing process. They don’t have to wait for the long lead time for machine delivery, and this fast turnaround is very critical for operations that have to begin urgently.

Splines are devices used in mechanical drive systems. They are usually seen in most rotating mechanisms that transfer rotary motion from an input to an output via a splined shaft. It typically has teeth around its circumference, which are parallel to the axis of rotation of the shaft. These teeth or grooves are formed in different ways. They can be in involute form, straight sided, or included angle form called serrations. The external splined shaft mates with internal splines which has spaces formed in reverse to that of the shaft’s teeth.
 
The torque of the splined shaft is being transferred to the internal spline member that is usually a gear. With this type of spline connection, the load is equally distributed along the teeth, providing a longer fatigue life compared to a keyed shaft. The various types of teeth allow for transfer of rotational concentricity, stronger drives, provision for misalignment, ability to slide, and other functions. Both kinds of splines can be machined in almost the same ways, apart from hobbing which is too difficult to do with an internal type. The different methods of machining splines are explained below.
 

• Hobbing - as mentioned, this process is applicable to external splines. The ratio of the hobbing machine is determined by the number of starts of the hob and the number of spline teeth. The hob machine then rolls along with the spline while the cutting teeth removes the material from the spaces between spline teeth.

 

• Milling - different types of milling cutters are used to mill different types of spline teeth. A milling cutter with reverse form of the involute is used to machine involute splines. While a double angle milling cutter is designed to machine the spaces between the teeth of a serration of parallel key spline shaft.

 

• Shaping - this is used to make all types of splined shaft varieties. A shaper cutter is used with a cutting edge at one face, given with specific number of teeth in proportion to that of the number of teeth in the workpiece. Both the cutter and workpiece roll together with the cutter removing the material from the workpiece when in down stroking action. 

 

• Broaching - this is specially designed to produce female splined shafts. The broach tool has the same number and form of the female spline it will produce. It has multiple cutting edges; each has a progressive form of the final spline which permits a specific chip load on every cutting edge as it works through the blank. The last rows of the edges make the final size of the spline upon exiting.

 
Whether you need small or large volume of splines, either an external or internal splined shaft order, the expertise of True Gear can best serve you. Get in touch with us today to see how we can satisfy your needs.
