Moving ahead with Tubular Laser Cutting

One always associates laser cutting services with high-speed cutting and this is probably true. When it comes to tubular laser cutting, however, a dimension of speed could be a relative factor. The process of tubular laser cutting focuses on the amount of time required to process a tube that complies with desired specifications and not only cutting speed. Any regular laser-cutting machine can cut metal sheets in a matter of seconds. While the same can be said about the laser tube-cutting machine, the dynamics of it change. This is when compared to the process of doing it. As against conventional laser cutting machines, tube laser cutting machines are usually designed to cut metal steel pipes of varying thicknesses. The cutting of metal of multiple lengths and thicknesses needs machines that have greater power and processing bandwidth. Tubular laser cutting machines have laser tubes that incorporate gemstone laser tubes with a powerful cutting ability as well as a stronger absorptio...

Benefits of an Industrial Automation System

Image
Most progressive engineering or manufacturing companies deliberate on incorporating an industrial automation system to ramp up output or productivity. Quite obviously, while there may be just a couple of reasons to not consider industrial automation, there are multiple reasons why industrial automation is a must. Enhanced productivity, lowered downtimes, faster ROI, reduced operational expenses, and higher ROI are just some of them. About Industrial Automation Systems These automation systems are deployed to control and supervise machines, devices, or processes. This is done in an automated format guided by computerization and is generally used to perform repetitive functions or tasks. Such systems and processes are designed to perform automatically in order to lower and augment human work and capability. Businesses can deploy such automation systems to swap any mechanical or repetitive duties performed by single operators in the manufacturing process. Such systems utilize the p...

How Storage in Warehousing Can Make a Difference

Image
Storage is a key element that has to be considered by managers at warehousing complexes or warehousing services. It plays a role in the supply of materials and goods to the market. It can also contribute to how quality at warehouses and logistics centers can be maintained as well as managing and retaining the value of products. Warehouses utilize various kinds of storage systems and styles based on volume, packaging, and other criteria. Based on the efficiency of such systems, warehousing services or storage can enhance order fulfillment and inventory management processes. Modern storage structures and systems not only enhance the speed and efficiency of operations but can also help to increase the safety of the workplace from unexpected occupational hazards. Some warehousing storage systems used are as follows • Pallet Storage System This is about deploying heavy-duty pallets for stacking several goods and crates. Plastic or wooden pallets are mostly used in logistic centers. This...

CNC machine shops – An Overview

Image
  A machine shop is a place that undertakes elementary manufacturing for different industries or households. A shop will typically contain a lot of machinery and is supported by machinists and other technicians. A machine shop can be a stand-alone business or could be a part of a big factory. Machine shops located within a large factory service therequirements of the organization while some operate as contract manufacturers that provide online machining services to different clients from various industries. Equipment in a machine shop Shops comprise of multiple pieces of equipment and the types and range are based on the size and purpose of the shop. A few machines found in most shops are as below. ·        Milling machines – These machines contain rotary cutters to extract material from the workpiece. Depending on the type and size, they can perform different kinds of cuts. ·        Machining center – This is b...

What is Perforating Guns.

Image
A perforating gun is a device that is used to pierce or drill perforations in oil and gas wells for the purpose of production. Perforating guns are comprisedof multiple-shaped explosive charges and are designed in a range ofconfigurations and sizes . A critical aspect of the gun is the diameter. The size is generally determined by the occurrence of wellbore restrictions or even limitations that are levied by the surface equipment. These guns find application and usage across various industries but the most common application are the oil and gas well industries. Many types of perforating guns are available and usage is dependent on the application. In the drilling industry, they are required to make openings in casings. They contain multiple explosive-shaped charges  that create the kind of openings that are needed in opening different sizes and types of casings. In the drilling industry, perforating guns are part of the regular tools that are used to connect pipelines. How are ...

The growing popularity of laser cutting

Lasers offer a form of energy that has uniquely lent itself to manufacturing, medicine, and communication. Lasers have the ability to heat and melt multiple types of materials. It can even be used to vaporize material as required. It is an optimum way to utilize intense but controllable energy. As of date, one of the most used applications of lasers is in cutting. There are four different types of cutting. Fusion cutting In this technique, the material melted to some extent, and then this molten material is expelled by using an airflow. This process is called a  fusion   laser cutting process due to the transfer of material happening when it is in a liquid state, How it works: The laser beam directed at the material is accompanied by an inert cutting gas. This makes the now molten material leave the slot that was created. The inert gas has no role in the cutting, however. Fusion cutting is far more efficient and faster than conventional gasification. In this process, t...
