Ships That Sail Through The Clouds Luigi Prina is an 83-year-old Italian architect who makes ships that truly fly; delicate masterpieces that soar into the clouds. He has been building model airplanes since childhood. There is true craftsmanship and love at play with each creation. This video captures a beautiful portrait of Luigi in his study, a magical world where he is surrounded by dozens of ships hanging by a strand of nylon. A breath of fresh air in the high-tech world of today, this fascinating man exhibits a unique and delicate touch completed with expert craftsmanship. A national aircraft-modelling champion at the age of 16, he has honed his skill and his handcrafted flying models have evolved into incredible designs. Flying models made of delicate paper and balsa wood, and powered by a simple elastic band made of pure Indian rubber, which can last for over 20 years, reminds one of Leonardo da Vinci’s sketches of flying machines from the 15th century. "Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return." Clearly a lifelong passion, Luigi looks on with devoted eyes, following his flying ship on its journey. His face lights up with a child-like smile watching his handmade creation as it circles the room. We admire his enduring affection for the intricate flying ships that he so lovingly creates, and sets sailing through clouds. "When the ship began to go around the ceiling it seemed as if the clouds were moving." Video: Blinking City Quotes (in order): Leonardo da Vinci, Luigi Prina

The American Industrial Revolution, that is. With roots dating back to the 1800s, Big Boulder Ski Area was spawned from Lehigh Coal and Navigation. The founding fathers of the Company were Josiah White and Erskine Hazzard who pioneered anthracite coal mining and played a significant role in the Industrial Revolution. These two entrepreneurs created the world’s first iron wire suspension bridge; and then went on to create an effective navigation system, hydrostatic locks, to transport large amounts of coal to Philadelphia. To increase their efficiency and bring more coal from their mines to the navigation system the Company constructed America’s second railroad in 1827-28. By 1829 the conversion of this system was developed into a two-way system, which improved Lehigh Navigation. With the completion of the Morris and Delaware Canals in 1832-1833, this system had the largest carrying capacity of any canal in the U.S. stretching to Mauch Chunk to Easton, into New York and Philadelphia. By 1840, Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company employed over 1,000 men in a dozen or more manufacturing establishments. At its peak capacity in 1919 the company had 11,000 employees and was producing 5 million tons of coal all by underground mining methods. Around 1942, during World War II, the coal industry shifted from underground to surface mining, and it was at that time that the employees built Split Rock Club on the shores of Lake Harmony as a company retreat. The club consisted of Split Rock Lodge and the adjoining Hazzard (Erskine Hazzard) ski slope. When the lodge sold in 1949, Hazzard ski slope became known as Big Boulder Ski Area. This was the first commercial ski resort in Pennsylvania, and it was here that snowmaking was first used successfully in a commercial application. The idea for snowmaking came from an article reported on December 22, 1950 describing the story of the Tropeano brothers from Lexington, Massachusetts who made snow using an experimental portable irrigation system. Another report dated December 14, 1950 states that a Mr. Wayne Pierce of Milford Connecticut filed the first patent application for the making of snow by blowing water through a nozzle. These two events lead to further investigation of snowmaking at both Mohawk Mountain in Connecticut and Big Boulder Mountain in Pennsylvania. John Guresh, an employee who was instrumental in building Big Boulder Ski Area was the pioneer who perfected the snowmaking machine. What spurred the making of this system was the purchase of the original system, which didn’t work, plus inspiration from the Larchmont Engineering Company to incorporate an irrigation nozzle, which again proved unworkable. Guresh did not give up, and in 1956/57 a machine that resembled a lawn sprinkler was used to emit crystals that looked and acted like snow. Guresh said of his first efforts, “One of the biggest problems was keeping the water moving fast enough to prevent freezing before it could be sprayed.” He also stated “It never bothered me that I didn’t become rich and famous from the invention. I made a lot of friends and got a lot of recognition, that was more important.” When Jack Frost opened in 1972, the experiences from Big Boulder laid the groundwork for a well thought out ski resort. All of the slopes, lifts, buildings, and snowmaking that would be required were planned as part of the original construction. Today, Jack Frost Ski Area is a companion resort to Big Boulder Ski Area. With roots in the industrial age these two ski resorts have become the heart and soul of the Poconos Mountains ski industry of Northeastern Pennsylvania. Jack Frost Mountain provides an inviting ski area with a summit elevation of 2000 feet, base elevation of 1400 feet and vertical drop of 600 feet. 21 different slopes to include: ski school learning slope, 4 Easiest (beginner slopes, 6 More Difficult (intermediate slopes), 8 Most Difficult (advanced slopes) and 2 Terrain Parks. There are 9 lifts: 1 quad, 2 triples, 6 doubles and 1 ski carpet (used for kids lesons only). Big Boulder Ski Area is devoting 50% of its overall terrain to park features. The base elevation is 1700 feet with a summit elevation of 2175 feet and a vertical drop of 475 feet. Big Boulder boasts the most progressive and innovative terrain park program. 15 different slopes to include: 4 Easiest (beginner slopes), 3 More Difficult (intermediate slopes), 3 Most Difficult (advanced slopes) and 5 Terrain Parks. There are 8 lifts:2 triples, 5 doubles and 1 ski carpet. BB 11/29/10 (open only this day then reopened 12/3/10 for season)

Casting Method For Custom Made Orthotics : There are two different casting methods we use at Dorchester Physiotherapy. The first is a non-weight bearing mold of the patient’s feet using a foam-casting box. The second technique is a prone non-weight bearing slipper cast taken with the patient in Sub Talar-Neutral position. Materials used For Custom Made Orthotics : Polypropylene/Polyethylene thermoplastic or EVA (accommodative) material is used to form a shell, which is available in various thicknesses ranging from 2mm to 9mm for the desired level of control and dimensional stability. This material is placed over the cast of the patient’s feet and formed under vacuum. This shell is then shaped to specifications indicated by the pedorthist using various grinding wheels and belts. The covering layers are selected based on functionality and clinician’s preference, with attention given to specific cushioning needs of the patient. These covering materials range from thicknesses of 1mm to 3mm depending on what type of footwear the orthotic will be placed into. Orthotics can be made to fit a large number of shoes

Over the past year I have been developing & building a seatpost removal tool, this tool removes posts that have become stuck into the frame overtime due to grease not being applied when fitted or not being regreased as often as they should be causing corrosion or rusting on steel, alloy & carbon frames / posts. The tool works by mounting through the bottom bracket on the frame (cranks & bottom bracket is needed to be removed, in some cases a new bottom bracket will be needed when re fitted) then clamping to the post, the tool is then driven by a powerful hydraulic ram attached to guide rods to pull the seatpost out. If you have a aero / oval seatpost (normally carbon fibre) the only way to remove at the moment is to drill a hole through the post to allow the tool to mount or to pull against the head of the post, this is also a much weaker way of removal but all that can be done at the current time. Once the seatpost is removed from the frame the seat tube is then reamed out to insure there are no sharp edges or corrosion. The seat tube is then honed out with a Flexi-Hone ball honing tool, this gives a nice cross hatch finish inside the tube to allow anti seize grease or oil micro channels to sit in keeping the new seatpost from corroding in again. Finally the inside of the seat tube is cleaned out with a nylon brush to remove any metal debris Cost for this work is £60 - 80 for a successful extraction If the extraction is unsuccessful £30 I do offer other methods off seatpost removal with Finishline Freeze Spray or penetrating oil and/or adding heat via a heat gun. These methods are cheaper and less risky but less successful. This removal process does not come without its risk, the seatpost is sometimes damaged during the process due to the clamping of the tool or in some cases a hole is needed to be drilled through for a clamping rod to be fitted, it is also possible that the frame welds or carbon can fail due to the amount of force needed to remove the post before the post becomes free, (In simple terms the frame gives before the seat post / the frame is weaker than the force needed to remove the post) This work I call a last ditch effort if penetrating oil, freeze fluid or other methods fail to have any affect. Customers need to be aware that frame or/& post failure is a possibility when this work is carried out.

Frequently Asked Questions Whether gas or electric, tank-type or tank-less, your water heater is a mechanical device which requires regular maintenance. There are many parts and components that can fail. You may need a new element, thermostat, or other parts or service. Gurgling or water level fluctuation is often a sign of a clog in the main line or a vent. A water softener is the best. The new water softener conditioners are extremely reliable and use much less salt than older models. There are many new products available that can lower your energy consumption: tank-less water heaters, low-flow faucets, water-saving toilets…just to name a few! Some water has a sulfur or “rotten egg” smell when it comes from your water source. Other odors can come from your anode rod in your water heater. Regular flushing of your water heater sometimes works, however the anode rod may need to be replaced to eliminate the odor. Persistent sulfur odors may need to be treated with a sulfur removal system. Yes. These are called comfort height toilets. We can get them for you and install them. If you already have a propane tank, we can run a gas line to your outdoor kitchen or grill. No one likes a cold floor. In most cases, we can fix that by adding radiant tubing under the existing floor. However, sometimes accessing the area under the floor can be a problem. Call us and we can check it out. If you are not experiencing problems, most septic tanks do not need to be pumped. Multiple studies have shown no benefits from adding chemicals to your septic tank. Changing a faucet or fixture can really add value to and modernize your kitchen or bathroom. We’ve got all kinds to chose from. Look around in our virtual showroom or stop by to pick one out. Our service techs will be glad to come by and install it. It’s often quicker and less of a hassle than you might think.

Learn More About Us Simply put, here is our approach to servicing and installing heating and cooling systems. Foremost, the entire system needs to be safe and stable. It needs to be able to withstand the outdoor elements and have the reliability to operate under the harshest of conditions. Your system shouldn’t ‘fade’ when temperatures get really hot or cold outside. Pride is an important component to integrating new equipment where old equipment once sat. A replacement installation should clearly show the craft work of the installer. Their work needs to be aesthetically pleasing. They need to leave clean, well defined lines that compliment the structure and equipment location. All of our installers are craftsmen. Our service personnel are seasoned technicians who know how heating and cooling units should perform. And we know the importance a customer places in the ability to communicate their needs to someone who understands their goals. A lot of people think they know how to install a unit. But not everyone can install or service a heating or cooling system that’s safe, reliable, has outstanding performance, and options for every need. That’s what we believe, and its our approach at NY CITY BOILERS Heating & Cooling. If it’s equally important to you, look over our website and give us a call. We have been in business for over 35 years. We guarantee our service, products and craftsmanship.

Replace Rear View Mirrors Without Breaking the Bank We all know the importance and safety implications of our rear view mirrors. Yet, not a week goes by when I don’t see a car or truck driving around with a cracked, or worst yet, missing rear view mirror glass. Even if it’s not illegal in your area, they are a necessity for safe driving. It all starts by backing out of the garage while parked a little too close to the garage door or backing out of your parking spot at the mall, where someone has not left you enough room to open your door and BANG! you have a broken mirror. Price Matters–Especially in a Difficult Economy We’ve found the reason so many people drive around with broken mirror is because of the price they receive when they make a phone call to their local car dealerships parts department. Most parts departments only sell the entire mirror with the housing and all the adjusting motors, heating elements, turn indicators and wires that goes with it. Most outside rear view mirrors of this type typically cost in excess of $300-$400 not including the labor to install it. The reason is that the automobile manufacturer buys the mirror and housing as an entire unit for ease of installation during the assembly process. Don’t Sacrifice Safety What most consumers don’t know is that there is an alternative. Most reputable glass shops can replace just the glass portion of the mirror housing. Auto Glass companies have access to mirrors that are pre-cut to fit your particular make and model of vehicle. If a Redi-cut mirror is not available for your vehicle, one can be custom cut for you. Most standard mirrors of this kind can usually be installed for $100 or less. The more options you have on the mirror, such as heated mirrors or turn signals in the mirror, tends to increase the mirror cost and labor costs slightly. So next time this happens to you don’t wait until a broken mirror causes you an accident call your local glass shop and ask to just replace the glass.

Update May 12, 2022: Now at Release 2.2, with enhanced menus and OTA (Over-The-Air) update capability. GaugeWidgets. The GaugeWidgets library includes vertical, horizontal and angular (arc or circle) widgets. Individual widgets have up to five color-selectable ranges, up to eight pointers of eight types (including arrows, of lines/bars, ‘bugs’ (markers), and needles. Pointers have selectable colors and individual single-character ‘tags’ that help in labeling. Also, text datum helpers are provided to assist you in the positioning of text strings such as values and units and there are easy to use methods for drawing basic geometric shapes with variable width and colored borders. Examples of compound Gauges created using the vertical, horizontal and arc elements from the pre-release GaugeWidgets library: Using the widget primitives in the GaugeWidgets library, you build elaborate gauges, such as shown above. Most of the math is taken care of. You just perform simple screen positioning of widgets and values. For commercial endeavors, please contract me to develop custom gauges or library elements. Many of the gauge examples have been flight tested! I created this library in order to provide electronic gauges for experimental amateur built (E-AB) aircraft, but you can easily use it for simulators, vehicles, boats and spacecraft (!). You may download and use The libraries with a license for non-commercial purposes. UPDATE: April 30, 2021–PolarDraw library has been deprecated and most methods rolled into the GaugeWidgets library. NOTE: Libraries are provided for the huVVer-AVI-2 and huVVer-AVI-3 programmable aircraft instruments. These devices features a larger, brighter screen than the M5Stack and supports a number of interfaces useful in avionics applications. The M5Stack is still supported.

Arora, J., Saini, A., Mehra, N., Jain, V., Shrey, S., Parnami, A. Often Virtual Reality (VR) experiences are limited by the design of standard controllers. This work aims to liberate a VR developer from these limitations in the physical realm to provide an expressive match to the limitless possibilities in the virtual realm. VirtualBricks is a LEGO based toolkit that enables construction of a variety of physical-manipulation enabled controllers for VR, by offering a set of feature bricks that emulate as well as extend the capabilities of default controllers. Based on the LEGO platform, the toolkit provides a modular, scalable solution for enabling passive haptics in VR. We demonstrate the versatility of our designs through a rich set of applications including re-implementations of artifacts from recent research. We share a VR Integration package for integration with Unity VR IDE, the CAD models for the feature bricks, for easy deployment of VirtualBricks within the community.

Motorcycles are a type of motor vehicle, used for transportation. They are also popular for recreation and sport. There are many different types of bikes, each one having its own unique qualities that make them appealing to people. Some of them are strictly utilitarian while others are designed for purely aesthetic reasons. The basic parts of any motorcycle include an engine, a chassis, a transmission and wheels. Each of these parts has its own role in making your bike function properly. A motorcycle’s engine is often a single-cylinder or dual-cylinder, although there are some four-cylinder machines as well. The engine is a vital component that determines how fast the bike can go. The engine is a central point for all other components to connect to, so it’s important to choose the right type of engine that will suit your riding needs. Most motorcycles have a transmission with four to six speeds, usually controlled by twist-type controls on the handgrips. The clutch and throttle control the engine’s speed, and the front-wheel and rear-wheel brakes are controlled by levers on the handlebars. The frame of a motorcycle is typically a steel structure, though aluminum and cast alloys are increasingly common. The tires are similar to automobile tires, except they’re smaller and rounded to allow leaning, which can improve stability in turns. Riding a motorcycle is different from riding a bicycle, because you have more power and more weight on two wheels. However, the principle is still the same – you need momentum to stay balanced on the machine.

Paul W. Adams The plant is located in the Matheson industrial area. The site coordinates are: Bowman Township Concession 6, North Part of Lot 3 Parcel 16089SEC, Vimy Ridge Road, Matheson ON. All ancillary facilities such as power, municipal water and a dedicated septic system are located at the site and at this time are turned on. The Plant was modified in 2003 and operated a few months the following year. The first stage of the plant comprises of a jaw crusher (crushed to 4”), the rock is screened and the undersized rock is directed to a cone crusher which crushes the rock to 3/8”. The ore is stored in a series of four – 150 ton ore bins. From the bins, the ore is dried in rotary kiln, and then directed to a Hazemag impact crusher. A cyclone is used to remove the oversized ore and sends it back to the Hazemag, the undersized 3/16” rock is processed through a series of three mills, to achieve the size required for sale. The final product is air blown to the product storage bin. There are three classified milling systems capable of producing micron sized material. Processing water is not used in the circuit. The current tenant is a party to an agreement for shared use of a portion of the facility. For additional information please contact Paul W.

The Keynotes at Learning Solutions tend to be a jumpstart to your imagination. They allow you to peek into the world of the possible and see what’s coming. I find it very exciting to see what will be impacting my world in various ways over the next 3-5 years. The topic is around the RIP/MOD/FAB Maker community that is building with 3-D printing at its core. The keynote speaker on the first day of Learning Solutions was Steve Wujec, a senior fellow at Autodesk. Here is a video from June 2014 that is very similar to his presentation he shared with us. This model of industry is going to have massive ripple effects across the world and across many industries. What are we talking about? 2012 is a good example. In this year, Kodak (a major film and photography product company) filed for bankruptcy. But, in the same year, a startup with about 30 employees changed the photography space and made about $1 BILLION in sales. That company is Instagram. The pattern is similar to VCR > DVD > Netflix > YouTube. We are talking about the democratization of products and industries. There is a mix of things that is occurring and it started with the Maker space. But, it has been the combination of things that can sense what is going on around us (FitBit, Google Glass, Mobile Devices), computers that have incredible processing power and capabilities (social, mobile, laptops), and the upcoming revolution with 3-D printing. Wrap your head around this… There are 1.5 billion cellphones on the planet right now. That means there were more transistors and sensors produced last year than there were grains of rice produced on the entire planet last year. WHAT? There are about a million of them in each phone. I had no idea that 3-D printers were being used for materials beyond basic resin. I have seen that many times. But, TODAY, they also print using metals, glass, and fabric. The most common structure designs that keep coming back look like a web. This structure is stronger than steel. I saw car that was built in 44 hours, out of metal and plastics, with a 3-D printer. This car gets 180 miles per gallon. What does this mean? It can be totally customized to the buyer and delivered in TWO DAYS. You may think this is not a big deal because it is one car and it will never go mainstream. WRONG! Every major auto manufacturer has a prototype of this type of car in play now. According to Mr. Wujec, they demoed them at the Detroit Auto Show this year. He also shared a video of the Google driverless car and a video of the experience. WOW! This car is more aware of its surroundings than any human could possibly be. It is capable of capturing billions points of data A SECOND. Here are some more videos of this concept and experience if you are curious. I saw a Japanese office structure built for $5000 using 3-D Printing and quick-dry cement. It cost less to build this small office than it would cost to hire a crew to build it, not counting the materials. I also saw a team of drones (maybe a dozen) that lifted bricks and built a large structure. So what? This team acted like a bee hive and it was controlled by a computer – not a human. They worked in symphony with each other. They were smart enough to know if one was having trouble with a heavy item. Several would fly over and help. The others would slow down and adjust their build speed to match. In the past, a person would create several designs, test them, and fabricate prototypes to test the design quality. Now, a computer can capture the goals of what the designer wants and run through billions of prototypes in a matter of hours and present the designer with the best options. Imagine going into a shoe store and picking a design you like. Then, they measure your feet, your walking style, determine in what environments you will use the shoe in, and within 45 minutes, you have a totally custom shoe to which you own the design. In this model, you are leasing the materials. When the show wears out, you bring back the design, pay for a review and the materials. They then 3-D print you a new shoe. This exists today – it did not two years ago. Journalism and Big Data Did you know that somewhere around half or more of sports stories are not written by a human? I didn’t! Computers dig into the statistical data surrounding a game of series of games and completely create the article or news story about that article. The human just verifies the language of the information. Personal Health and Medicine Have you heard of Watson? In 2011, this IBM computer beat the two longest reigning champions of Jeopardy? Watson had much of the Internet and the entirety of Wikipedia downloaded to its physical computer. It did not just win. It destroyed the champion. Watson has been busy…now, it can run on a cell phone and it exists in the cloud. It also has the ENTIRE American Medical Journal in its system. They tested it against 12 board certified physicians in diagnosing and treating various illnesses and diseases. It was more effective than all 12 of the physicians together. Here is an article that talks about Watson in a little more detail. Another use of big data is in a tool called the Scandu – also known as a tricorder (Star Trek reference). This captures various points of data about you and seems to repeatedly be more accurate than a doctor. Training & Learning We really need to think about what this new reality will require, in the way of skills and how to train people for this new environment. You also may be dealing with training individuals that are connected to industries that use this technology (so, they don’t need to know how to operate it, but they need to understand the impact of this tech on how they do their business). Skills this new way of thinking could require include: - Goal setting and constraint definitions - Researching ideas and being able to show others how they think - Designing of systems, rather than the individual components of the systems What Does this All Mean? This is all coming or is in existence right now. Your role as a learning professional continues to evolve. What you do, how you do it, and the information you offer your learners will be impacted in the next several years by all these changes. A one-year old today won’t know a world without these things! That’s where this impact will occur. I expect it be another 10X shift in how learning operates. What do you think? How will these technologies and advancements impact the training and development industry?

Shanghai Jugong Hydraulic Technology Co., Ltd. Contact: Manager Zhang Mobile: 13671968158 /13681692048 Tel: 0512-53401911 Fax: 0512-53401911 Zip code: 215400 Address: No. 91 Yinchuan Road, Taicang City, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China Cleaning and maintenance of hydraulic pump valves The quality of a hydraulic system depends not only on the rationality of the system design and the performance of the system components, but also on the pollution protection and treatment of the system. The pollution of the system directly affects the reliability of the hydraulic system and the service life of the components. Statistics, about 70% of hydraulic system failures at home and abroad are caused by pollution. Hydraulic and electrical related technical support The hydraulic electrical system is a metallurgical term. The hydraulic system adopts the K-type three-position five-way electromagnetic reversing valve as the main reversing valve, and the main reversing valve and the two-position two-way electromagnetic reversing valve are connected in parallel, and then connected to the hydraulic cylinder to form a partial liquid resistance. And the shortest differential fast-forward loop of the pipeline. Custom processing of hydraulic valve blocks Blocks are very common and very important components in hydraulic systems. They are compact and easy to maintain, install, adjust and replace hydraulic components. Generally, the oil hole inside the hydraulic valve block is processed by drilling or boring. Assembly of hydraulic accessories Hydraulic components are hydraulic pumps, hydraulic motors, hydraulic cylinders, hydraulic valves, superchargers and other components used in hydraulic systems. The failure of hydraulic components leads to noise, and the suction phenomenon is one of the main causes of excessive noise of the hydraulic pump. The hydraulic pump distribution plate is also one of the important components that cause noise. Custom processing of hydraulic systems The function of the hydraulic system is to increase the force by changing the pressure. A complete hydraulic system consists of five parts, namely the power element, the actuator, the control element, the auxiliary element (accessory) and the hydraulic fluid. Hydraulic systems can be divided into two categories: hydraulic drive systems and hydraulic control systems. Hydraulic system repair and after-sales The hydraulic system consists of a power component, a control component, and an actuator component, among which there is a heat dissipation system. The main maintenance of the hydraulic system is to maintain the cleanliness of the oil and the choice of hydraulic oil. Regularly change the oil suction and return oil filter, and replace the sealing rubber ring of the air filter at the fuel filler port regularly. Hydraulic oil pipe production The production of hydraulic oil pipes has many equipments, many kinds of raw materials, and complicated production processes. However, in recent years, the production process of hydraulic oil pipes using plastic or thermoplastic elastomer as the main raw material can be appropriately simplified, and the raw material price is high, and the market is still mainly based on rubber raw materials.

It is presently Winter season ruling in India and there is no point in using the air conditioners for cooling purposes. But do you even know that you can use your air conditioner for both hot and cold air purposes? Yes, you heard it right. A reversible air conditioner which is also called a hot and cold air conditioners performs more duty than cooling a room. In this blog, we will cover major highlights about reversible air conditioners and their advantages for use at home. About Reversible Air Conditioners Reversible Air Conditioners are also called hot and cold air conditioners that adjust to both cold and warm room temperatures. An air conditioner uses warm air that exists in the environment and then passes it to a refrigerant before circulating it in the room. A hot and cold air conditioner has a heat pump included in it which does the same process but reversely. Nowadays, it has become convenient for people to buy one air conditioner and enjoy both hot and cold air in different seasons. Related Article: https://gadgetsbynow.com Advantages of hot and cold air conditioners The Best Split ACs in India are usually the reversible ones, that have the capability of giving both cold and hot air. It is somewhat beneficial for people with small-sized rooms with no or less space for heaters. Also, these air conditioners consume less energy in comparison to a heater. A reversible air conditioner also doesn’t harm the decor of the room and is easy to manage. Some of the other key advantages of using a hot and cold air conditioner in a room during winter are: 1. Uniformity in Temperature: Most of the hot and cold air conditioners distribute heat uniformly at high capacity as compared to room heaters. Chances of device and equipment damage are possible while using a room heater in the room. It is not a point of concern though, while using a hot and cold air conditioner. 3. Oxygen level: Electric room heaters cause the burning of oxygen whereas reversible air conditioners do not run at high temperatures. This, therefore, does not decrease oxygen levels in the room. People with children at home usually have concerns about their safety while using room heaters. Children cannot reach or touch the height at which the hot and cold air conditioner is installed on the walls. 5. Energy utilization: A hot and cold air conditioner uses 1 KW of electrical energy to produce 2-4 KW of heat energy. Also, it varies on the outdoor and room temperature as well. The best Split ACs in India are also reversible air conditioners. They might be expensive when considering the buying price, but also perform 2-in-1 operations. These air conditioners have also eliminated the need for heaters in the winter season. In such cases, they are also referred to as worth-buying options. Top-Picked Hot and Cold Air Conditioners (2024) Weather air conditioners, also known as reversible air conditioners, are the best options for countries like India with extreme weather conditions. In summer, people can’t live in high temperatures without an air conditioner and in the same way, winters are quite impossible to bear without a heater. Following is the list of some top picks of hot and cold air conditioners as per the latest rankings and surveys: - Voltas 1.5 Ton Split AC (1.5 ton) - LG 3 Star 5-in-1 convertible AC (1.5 ton) - Daikin 4 Star Hot & Cold Inverter AC (1.5 ton) - Panasonic 3 Star Hot and Cold Smart Wi-Fi Inverter AC (2 Ton) - Lloyd 5 Star Hot & Cold Inverter Split AC (1.5 ton) - What capacity AC is ideal for a 200 Sq Ft Room? Ans. 1 or 1.25-ton capacity AC is ideal for a 200 Sq Ft Room in India. For rooms smaller than this size, 1-ton AC is a good choice.

(Length Over All): Total length of vessel from bow to stern. D.W.L. (Distance at Waterline): Hull length at the waterline. This number is somewhat dynamic, changing with respect to the heeling moment. Typically, a longer D.W.L. is one of the factors which translates to increased hull speed. BEAM: The widest dimension atwartships at the waterline. DRAFT: The depth of water that the vessel draws, or displaces, especially when loaded DISPLACEMENT: The volume or weight of water, in long tons (1 long ton = 2240 lbs.), displaced by the vessel. BALLAST: Anything heavy in a ship (e.g., lead, in the keel of a sailing vessel) to give stability. SAIL AREA: Sail area is the total of the main sail and, for example, in the case of a sloop, the area of the front triangle (based on a 100% jib). I: Distance from highest sheave for jib halyard measured vertically to the shear at deck abreast the mast (NOT cabin top, or deck at mast). J: Horizontal distance from front of mast to forestay fitting or Jib Tack at bow or bowsprint. P: Vertical distance from top of boom or tack to head; luff length of mainsail. E: Distance along boom from aft side of mast at Tack, to Clew of mainsail; footlength of sail. MAST HEIGHT ABOVE D.W.L.: HEADROOM: Standing room inside cabin (typically measured. by the manufacturer, between the cabin sole and the hatch cover. Perhaps a more meaningful dimension would be from the cabin sole to the overhead liner which is typically a few inches lower than the hatch cover on boats constructed with a liner and comprises, by far, the greatest percentage of the cabin's work space. COCKPIT LENGTH: Inside dimensions of distance between stern and companionway bulkheads THEORETICAL HULL SPEED: The theoretical maximum speed a deep-keeled vessel (e.g., sailboat) can travel through water. It should be noted that boats surfing down waves, or lightish-displacment boats that can plane over the surface of waves can generate higher speeds than the theoretical maximum. Hull speed is calculated as follows: 1.34 * square root of waterline length (D.W.L.) in feet. D/L RATIO (Displacement/Length Ratio): D/L = displacement in long tons (divide displacement by a long ton (2240 lbs.) to find displacement value) / (.01 * D.W.L.)3. A value of 100 or so would indicate an ultralight-displacement boat (ULDB) such as a racer. A medium-displacement value (typical of cruiser/racers) is about 200-300, and heavy-displacement cruisers at around 300 or more. SA/D RATIO (Sail Area/Displacement Ratio): SA/D = sail area / (displacement in cubic feet) 2/3 -- where 2/3 means square the displacement in cubic feet (for salt water, divide displacement by 64 to get displacement in cubic feet) and then take the cubic root of that number. A high-performance racer (typically large sail area and light displacement) may have an SA/D value of 18 or higher. A heavier-displacement cruiser may show a value of around 14 or lower. Moderate-dispacement cruiser/racers typically show a SA/D value of around 16. CAPSIZE SCREENING FORMULA (CSF): To calculate the CSF, first divide the displacement by 64 (volume in cubic feet for salt water). Then, find the cubic root of that number (i.e., the cubic root of the displacement in cubic feet). Finally, divide the beam by the number you just arrived at (i.e., divide the beam by the cubic root of the displacement in cubic feet) to determine the CSF. A value of less than 2 translates to a relatively safe boat in rough conditions. Greater than 2 indicates rough weather vulnerability. The CSF gives a quick and dirty capsize vulnerability indicator. It is, however, less rigorous than the mathematical formula used by most naval architects to determine the maximum angle a boat can heel and still right itself without doing a 360. If a sailing vessel could right itself up to a heeling angle of about 100 degrees--it would be a good thing. MOTION COMFORT RATIO (MCR): MCR = displacement / (0.65 * (0.7 * D.W.L + 0.3 * L.O.A) * beam 4/3). This ratio is a relative measure of the motion comfort of a boat. A boat that is less affected by significant wave action is generally considered more comfortable. Smaller, beamier boats tend to have a lower ratio while longer (D.W.L.) less beamy boats, a higher number. Typical MCRs range between about 14-38. BALLAST RATIO (BR): BR = displacement/ballast. Typical BR values range between 2:1 and 3:1. Tradeoffs between speed, stability, comfort and manuverability are factored in when determining the BR. These tradeoffs depend on the vessel's intended use (i.e., blue water cruising, coastal cruising, daysailing, racing or some combination thereof). MAXIMUM RANGE OF POSITIVE STABILITY: Naval architects determine the maximum range of positive stability by the combination of a rigorous mathematical formula based on the section area curves, as well as an experimental inclination test. The results yield the maximum angle a boat can heel and still reright. Most offshore cruisers would want to have a range of maximum positive stability of at least 120 degrees. In the event of a knockdown, the mast will initially be submerged at about an angle of 90-100 degrees. The greater the range of positive stability--the better the chance of rerighting after a knockdown. US Sailing Association's IMS certificates for Pearson 30s typically yield a maximum of about 120 degrees of positive stability. PHRF (Performance Handicap Racing Fleet) : Performance handicapping systems are based on the speed potential of a yacht, and the ratings have been derived from observations of previous race data. Base ratings, have been determined from past performance of a class or similar type yachts, and some simple measurements are taken to make adjustments, i.e. larger sails, propulsion and others. Ratings vary slightly, depending on the region, and other factors. Generally, and arguably, the lower the PHRF number, the faster the boat. The Pearson 30 was designed by naval architect Bill Shaw. Approximately 1,185 fin-keeled, spade-rudder P30 sloops were produced in Portsmouth, Rhode Island from 1971 to 1981 attesting to her tremendous popularity. The P30 was designed, primarily as a coastal cruiser, however, she had a good turn of speed and was successfully and actively raced throughout the country under PHRF, IOR, and MORC certification. She won the 3/4 Ton North American Championship in 1972. Pearson was one of the oldest fiberglass boatbuilders in the country. Their Triton and Alberg 35, preceeding the P30, are two of the classic modern boats. In the 1970's, with over 20 years of fiberglass boatbuilding research and development, and practical experience, Pearson had solved most of the construction problems that seemed to plaque some builders. The hull structure is a hand layup in a one-piece mold of alternating plies of 1 1/2-ounce mat and 18-ounce woven roving. Two layers of omnidirectional mat are used beneath the gelcoat. Below the waterline is a solid seven-ply layup, yielding an average bottom thickness of .29 inches. Along the keel, the the plies from each side are overlapped, doubling the thickness. The topside skin is five plies of mat and roving with an average thickness of .21 inches. The deck is a fiberglass/end-grain balsa sandwich. The hull-to-deck joint is made by glassing together the external flanges of the hull and deck and backed up with stainless steel screws every four inches. The ballast is molded lead which is encapsulated in the fiberglass keel molding. Resin is poured over the ballast and locked in place avoiding the need for keel bolts. The mast is deck stepped and made of 6061-T aluminum. It is supported by an oak compression post that is glassed into the top of the keel. Chainplates are bolted to primary structural bulkheads that are glassed in. Much of the interior construction is bonded to the hull, including the fiberglass floorpan and molded headliner. Pearson hull strength is considerate, having slightly heavier scantlings than average. The rigging is strong and somewhat larger than most boats of her type making her very suitable for the coastal cruising conditions she was designed for. The interior is spacious considering a boat of this vintage and relatively narrow beam. There is plenty of compartmentalized stowage both belowdecks and in the cockpit locker and lazerette. Headroom, in the main cabin is five feet, eleven inches, and six feet, one inch, in the area just under the companionway hatch, near the galley. The cabinet and locker face sufaces are easily cleaned, low-maintenance white formica, trimmed with teak. The headliner is smooth, rounded, and light colored. The forward and aft bulkheads, as well as the door seperating the forward and aft cabins from the head were constructed of plywood and covered with a teak-patterned (non wood) veneer that makes a good candidate for renovating with a fresh coat of mildew-resistant marine-grade paint to lighten up the interior even further, while at the same time reducing the inherent mismatch of simulated wood grain contrasted with real teak. With four portlights (including one in the head, that opens), a forward opening transparent hatch, and two long, main cabin windows, the interior has a clean, airy feeling. There is enough teak trim in the form of handrails, cockpit storage bins, companionway hatch coverings, winch and turning block bases, etc. to provide a classic touch without the heavy maintenance required of traditional all teak interiors and heavily teaked exterior decks and cockpits. The original 30hp Atomic 4 engine provides adequate power to move through chop and windy conditions. A recent trip in 30 knots of wind with 6 foot chop yielded an average speed, going to windward, with an opposing current of about one knot, of 3 knots/hr. Typical cruising speed is 6 knots plus under power. The venerable A4 engine is relatively quiet and smooth. Access to the engine is easily gained by removing the companionway steps, the quarterberth access cover, or by access from the sail locker. Engine access for routine maintenance is reasonable once you, literally, get the feel for it (some tasks like checking the oil require that you reach around, behind the engine to retrieve the diptick -- since you can't see the dipstick from the access door on the front side of the engine compartment you must feel for it, and with a little practise it becomes easy to find, remove and replace the dipstick. This is necessary when draining the oil as well. However, it's easy to add or replace oil, as the oil filler cap is right in front). Some tasks require some extraodinary flexibility on the part of the mechanic, a common trade-off on a sailboat of this size. My A4 mechanic says the P30's engine compartment is a "ballroom". You've got to like a guy like that. The P30 has excellent handling characteristics under sail. She is very responsive and turns within a very small radius, a useful characteristic when negotiating tight marinas, etc. She will heel over in a breeze quite readily, but seems to love it, even if you manage to bury her rail she is responsive and moves quickly and with a light touch on the helm. She's not stiff, but she feels very secure and has excellent secondary stability, with a maximum range of positive stability of about 120 degrees, according to IMS certificates obtained on a number of P30s that underwent stability testing. When heeled to angles of more than 20 degrees the P30 retains its light, very well-balanced helm making her easy to handle when the breeze kicks up. With the proper sail combination the P30 is comfortable in a wide range of wind conditions. In a 25-30 knot breeze, with a double reef in the main, and 100% jib, she will sail comfortably to windward, heeling to about 25 degrees or so. With the chop at around 3-5 feet she will still make between 5 to 7 knots under sail, assuming no significant opposing current. Under ideal wind and sea conditions (not factoring in a favorable current) she will cruise at around 7+ knots under full sail. Heeled over, her waterline is a bit longer and results in a better than theoretical speed (6.7 knots) for her D.W.L. The Pearson 30 is simple, clean, well built, safe, fast, and sturdy -- generally speaking, bulletproof. She is very comfortable for two people, such as a cruising couple, and easy to single hand as well, an important consideration when practising crew-overboard rescues. One could comfortably undertake a moderately long trip, for instance, from Seattle's Puget Sound to SE Alaska, encompassing a range of sea and weather conditions, from protected (although not without some very fast currents) inside passage work, through cautious open-ocean coastal cruising on the outside of the islands along the route. The P30 has a nice motion through waves and chop and is surprisingly seakindly, for a moderate-displacement, fin-keeled sailboat. Pearson delivered P30s to many locations, including a number of skippered-deliveries to Bermuda, a 700 mile ocean passage from the east coast of the US where the Pearson 30s where built. Although the P30 is built rather sturdily and has seen some ocean time, I wouldn't be inclined to sail her offshore on extended passages. The stresses and conditions associated with long ocean crossings are considerably more intense than those related to coastal passages where shelter from harsh weather and seas can usually be found within 1-2 days or less. This is important because it's not likely that you'll be able to wait out a serious storm or series of storms, in the middle of the ocean, without potentially comprimising the structural integrity of a vessel designed primarily for coastal cruising. For near offshore coastal cruising with the opportunity to duck in out of severe conditions within a day or so, the P30 excels. She is a remarkably good example of an understated, well found, responsive, and very well-balanced production boat with an excellent turn of speed and characteristic of the quality and innovation for which Pearson Yachts built their well-deserved reputation.

Avid 30 Gallon Per Day Reverse Osmosis (RO) Filter Avid, a Sterling Water Treatment Brand, delivers with a 5 Stage Reverse Osmosis (RO) filtration system capable of eliminating over 99% of contaminants in water, including virii, bacteria, cysts, pentavalent arsenic, etc. This 30 GPD filter system comes complete with a bracket for mounting the filters under a counter or against a wall, plus a small pressure tank for filtered water storage, a saddle valve for connection, a faucet, and filter wrench. The Five Stages Stage One is a 5 micron filter used to remove grit, sediment, sand, etc before entering Stage Two. The longevity of the Stage One filter is dependent on the load of material being delivered by your water system - typically, anything over 5 microns is visible, so if you can see it in the water, Stage One is capturing it. Stage Two is a granular activated carbon filtration cartridge designed to remove other solids that will bind with carbon prior to entering the more sensitive membrane. Carbon will also help to reduce chlorine levels, which can never be allowed to touch the membrane Stage Three is an activated carbon block filter designed to remove taste/odor issues and chlorine prior to entering the membrane stage, Stage Four. Stage Four is where the magic happens - Reverse Osmosis relies on the physics of osmosis in liquids. In Stage Four, the water builds up a higher pressure on one side of a semi-permeable membrane, in the Stage Four filter, which causes the water molecules to equalize across the membrane. However, because the holes in the membrane are so small, only water will typically (just over 99% effective, remember?) make it through the Stage Four filter. Stage Five is a secondary carbon filtration cartridge to clean up any odors or tastes that may have made it through the system. It is expected that filters will last approximately 6 months to a year, but it is mostly dependent on usage and water quality at your home.

The Five Star DEF Story: We Buy a Diesel Truck, and Begin a Road Trip We purchased a brand new 2013 Ford F350 Super Duty truck in June, 2013. We needed a 14,000 GVWR truck that could haul our pickup camper and tow our utility trailer at the same time, and would be economical to drive long distances with our slide-in camper; so, we picked a truck with the 6.7L Power Stroke engine. We had never owned a diesel powered vehicle, but after many test drives and some research, we were amazed by the quiet, clean, and powerful diesel engines that power the new Ford, Chevrolet, GM, and Dodge RAM full size pickups (we test drove each before deciding on the Ford). We travel with our pets and wanted a bigger camper which meant we had to have a big diesel truck. We were curious about the Diesel Exhaust Fluid system on the truck and questioned the dealer about how often we would need to refill the tank and where we could get DEF. The dealer showed us the sections in the owner’s manual where we could find the DEF usage information, and we were relieved to read that a DEF refill would likely not be needed for at least 5000 miles. We found DEF by the gallon at a local auto parts store in Kent, WA, but the Ford owner’s manual advises not to store DEF inside the vehicle so we decided not to carry it in the truck or our pickup camper. One week after taking delivery of our new F350 Super Duty, we loaded up the pickup camper, provisions, two dogs, one cat, and took off for a month-long road trip to visit family across the country. We prefer to avoid crowded freeways and enjoy driving less travelled roads with plentiful, quiet RV campgrounds. We had the trip planned out to arrive at our first stop to visit family in Waterloo, IA five days and 1800 miles after departing our home in Kent, WA. The new truck/camper combination exceeded our expectations: plenty of power to climb hills and pass slow traffic on 2- lane roads, very quiet, and good fuel economy. The new truck averaged 10-11 MPG vs. our previous V10 gas F350/camper combination that got 7-8 MPG in similar conditions. We got familiar with all the new features of the new truck, including Ford’s information and message center where we could track fuel economy and lots of other useful information, including whether the DEF level was OK. It seemed odd there was not a gauge for monitoring how much DEF was in the tank (like a fuel gauge), but it did not seem to be a big deal (more on this later). We got in the habit of checking the Exhaust Fluid level each day. Posted on Sun, August 25, 2013 by Erich filed under

Many homeowners often wonder why their air conditioning unit makes noise even when it is off, but it can sometimes go away by itself! This article will discuss and address many reasons why this happens and offer some solutions to help you avoid it happening again! The first step is identifying where your noise may be coming from, for example, if an area of your home or property is less insulated. The second step is identifying where the noise may be staying; for example, in a certain area of your home or property. The third step is ensuring the issue does not happen again by addressing or finding where the issue was and removing or repairing the problem causing the issue. You can either do this yourself to avoid any costs, hire a professional to help with any environmentally-unsafe problems, install new AC parts to allow it to work better on its own, or use a cooling tower that will circulate air throughout your home by connecting numerous vents to one central location. 1. The Blower May Be Loose The blower is a part of the air conditioner that allows air to be blown into other rooms within the home, so if it falls off or becomes loose, it will make loud noises, which may cause concern for your neighbors and you. If this happens to your AC unit, you may try adding washers to the screws securing the blower cap, and tightening them slightly. If this does not work, remove the screws and reattach them with new washers under them. 2. The Thermostat May Be Defective If you have a defective thermostat, it may be stuck in the “on” or “off” position, which will then cause your air conditioner to turn off prematurely. While this is not harmful to your unit, it can make a lot of noise and stay on longer than it should. Reach out to a professional to get your AC repair. 3. The Air Ducts May Be Blocked If the air ducts are blocked with debris, dirt, or lint, this can also cause your AC unit to run continuously, even when it’s off. This will also cause your AC unit to make a lot of noise while running, even when it’s off. The best way to unblock your air ducts is using a vacuum cleaner, followed by a water hose to remove any standing water or dirt that may have built up. 4. Your Refrigerant Levels May Be Too Low Your refrigerant levels allow your AC unit to work; these should be checked annually and refilled if needed. If your refrigerant levels are too low, this can cause your air conditioner to make a lot of noise while it is running and eventually stop working. The best way to check your refrigerant levels is by checking the refrigerant level window on your AC unit. For any kind of Air Conditioner Repair, contact Elite Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning.

Gas safety is serious business, and landlords have been warned by the AIIC not to treat it lightly. Recent occurrences have seen landlords being fined for safety failings and for letting properties with dangerous gas boilers and equipment not checked by certified engineers. Although it is unclear why there have been more of these incidences in the past year, the AIIC is now urging landlords to ensure that all gas systems in their rental properties, including boilers and gas appliances are safe. Carbon monoxide detectors have now become a requirement. What can you do as a landlord to ensure that the gas appliances in your rental property are safe and working correctly? This guide will help. Your Requirements as a Landlord As a landlord, your duty is to ensure the maintenance of all flues and gas fittings to ensure their safe condition. This includes ensuring that all gas appliances are regularly and properly serviced according to manufacturer’s instructions or on the advice of an engineer registered with Gas Safe. Annual safety checks should be carried out on each appliance and its flue before the start of any new lease, or should have been inspected within one year before the start of the new lease. Appliances installed in a rental property for under 12 months will require inspection within one year of installation. Safety check records for each appliance must be kept for two years or more, and a copy of the latest safety check issued to existing tenants within 28 days of check completion. If new tenants are moving into the property, they must be given a copy of the record prior to moving in. Taking All Reasonable Steps It is the landlord’s duty to ensure they’ve taken all reasonable steps to ensure the safety of tenant appliances. This can mean requesting access to a tenant’s rental property in written form, including this access in their rental contract, or any other reasonable means. Safety is not the Tenant’s Duty Overall, the responsibility of ensuring compliance with the law belongs to the landlord. The landlord cannot delegate maintenance or safety check duties to the tenant, even if a managing agent is being used. Sub-let properties require the landlord to retain safety duties. However, these duties may overlap with those of the individual who sub-lets. In these cases, communication between the parties to ensure current checks and records are being kept is strongly recommended. Risk of Prosecution, Penalty and Imprisonment Not taking steps to maintain the gas appliances in tenant residences can result in injury and loss of life. Fines for not maintaining tenants’ gas appliances can reach £20,000, and offending landlords can be placed in prison for non-compliance. In some cases, both a fine and an order for imprisonment may be given. Unlimited fines may be the result of the case if is referred to the Crown Court. Checking Certification of Engineer Any engineer entering a premises to conduct maintenance and safety checks on an appliance must be confirmed as certified by the landlord. Engineers should be willing and able to provide a current card containing their photo, company name, registration number, security hologram, business registration number and start and expiry date. The back of the card should contain detailed information about the kind of gas work the engineer is registered to do.

Strategic choices, values or well-structured methods may sometimes produce far-off effects. This does not always happen, but when it does, it can be taken as a quality paradigm for what you are doing, recognizing the results and positive consequences thereof. Even after decades, in every continent. In each of the three reference markets - Household appliances, Automotive and Industrial sectors - we selected a story that tells about our journey and shows how a systemic, qualitative approach, that has been adopted for several years now, can even today give us the impetus to enhance the research and development paths which we started a long time ago: competitiveness, strategic advantages, edge over competitors and market position are in various ways consequences thereof and, in turn, new bases on which to continue growing together. With the pride of being able to tell a story that encompasses a worldwide process even if it solely refers to our corporate world, with the ability of foreign subsidiary companies to act as cognitive, manufacturing and development extensions of all the scenarios we are involved in. That is why we want to tell you about our “Butterfly Effect”. This phenomenon, known in the era of globalization due to the relationship and the concatenation of consequences that local actions may have at a global level, takes on a very special meaning if used to analyse the development of some MTU products. We hope you enjoy the read. Since the early nineties, in an effort to try and solve noise problems and issues due to the gasket getting stuck as a result of long periods of inactivity, the household appliance pump market has called for the power of water pump motors to be reduced. Meccanotecnica Umbra took up the challenge 25 years ago, developing a material for sliding rings capable of reducing sliding friction. PTFE patented by MTU with appropriate fillers: Mecflon. “Basically”, said Marco Benincasa, “in the early 90s, the market for household appliances, and specifically for dishwashers, called for a motor power reduction and the elimination of noise, which was also caused by the gasket and mechanical seal. Furthermore, reducing the motor power, which is linked to the starting torque, will reduce costs. To do this, a material was needed that would not get stuck, especially in the periods following long breaks in use.” At the core of this long development process was therefore a market requirement, which MTU was challenged to meet, “overcoming the intrinsic limits of a material which, as a plastic, has known limits of use. Our Mecflon exceeds the structural limits of materials, making the most of their advantages. Ongoing product development has continued for 25 years. The first development leap occurred when we were able to replace the carbon ring. The Y1 type, therefore, allowed us to first reduce the absorbed pump power and to somehow eliminate noise and pump locking, thereby immediately placing us at the forefront with respect to the rest of the market. In Mecflon, PTFE (polytetraflurethylene) acts as a “base”, a plastic matrix to be added with fillers, such as glass fibres (in the first Y1 version), or a carbon micro powder in the more recent Y4 one. All versions have therefore been widely used in the market, with Y4 progressively replacing previous versions in all applications. With Y4, we achieved significant improvements also in terms of wear resistance, which is a key issue as these materials are subject to the action of abrasive contaminants”. The process was therefore developed over a long time: “from Y1 (1992) to Y4 (2003-2004), work required further study, trying to understand how to improve our seal which is, as already mentioned, mainly used in the pumps of dishwashers and other machines, such as coffee machines. The first phase was quite rapid, allowing us to reach the market quickly. Then it took over 10 years to fine-tune performance. Today, when compared to other PTFE grades, Mecflon is specifically designed to provide greater efficiency, improved wear resistance and lower starting torque. Mecflon’s effect was therefore once again a key factor to avoid getting stuck and noise. We also achieved remarkable results in defining the design for brushless motors with clear advantages also in terms of wear, for the natural damage caused by the use and movement of the parts”. However, what really is a winning point at company level is the approach underlying the Mecflon development process that was adopted by the Research and Development team at the Campello facility. “Then, however, for the main part of production and application in the field, MTU China factory’s work became strategic and fundamental, since most customers had already outsourced their production there. We therefore succeeded in pleasing our customers by supporting the production phase in China, without leaving Campello: thus, manufacturing in China but developing in Italy and keeping our methods and approach characteristics unchanged. The consequent growth of our Chinese Subsidiary, therefore, also allowed for Campello’s well-structured growth. What we did was not actually outsource but rather use a form of widespread operational intelligence that brought about a virtuous network economy”. Balanced growth, in which all foreign plants manage to seize opportunities in a well-structured way along with headquarters – a further consequence of this special Butterfly Effect produced by choices that were made years ago and that today, find confirmation and are brought forward along with better control of know how. “Mecflon was a key product for MTU, making us become a reference point for the market: in the last few 25 in the last few 25 years, all dishwasher manufacturers who mostly use pump and seal technology have purchased our products. Our market share is over 50% in Europe and 30% to 40% worldwide. The volume of MTU sales in the household appliance sector largely depends on this material, and on our ability to fully and competitively manufacture it in house, continuously following up on the early insight that led to the product development”. MTU is active in the automotive industry, in particular as a manufacturer of mechanical seals for motor water pumps. In recent years, the whole sector has had to deal with changes that occurred in the market as a result of modifications in environmental regulations and a tendency to cut motor power in order to reduce consumption and the ecological impact. Marco Benincasa and Francesco Valentini talk about the 25-year journey that led to the development and improvement of MTU’s response to these various issues. “It all started with the emergence of a new market requirement: on the one hand, it was necessary to reduce the physiological cosmetic micro loss that mechanical seal parts must have; on the other hand, as a result of the environmental regulations becoming increasingly stringent, the composition of antifreeze liquids, which in the past were very polluting, had been changed, thereby determining different behaviours, both as cooling liquids and as lubricants, bringing about a change in the mechanical parts coming into contact with these liquids due to physical (a risk of surface abrasion of the seals of the pumps moving them) and chemical (a tendency of antifreeze to form deposits due to the presence of mineral salts) reasons. We therefore had to react to these changes, which had been brought about precisely as a result of modifications to the regulations and motor working conditions: both a general reduction in power and a tendency to produce smaller, faster and hotter motors, causing greater stress for all affected components. Also in the automotive sector, the minimum power absorbed by a water pump has become a significant element in the overall reduction of motor power: in many cases, in new electric or hybrid vehicles, the electric pump has lower power, which is an edge for those who can manufacture it functionally. The early phase of development involved identifying the ideal materials to make the two seal rings of. In some applications, working temperatures require the use of carbon rings: we therefore had to look for a type of carbon that had all ideal characteristics at the same time: the lowest possible friction, the greatest resistance to wear and the least possible thermal expansion in the application ( -40° +140°) to avoid size variations that could affect the pump operation. We thus, ended up defining C.U.G. (Carbon Ultra Graphite or Hard Carbon Graphite) by focusing on a resin-free sintering process and gradually defining the appropriate mix of carbon and graphite. To optimise the sealing capacity while looking for the best material to be coupled to C.U.G., we considered the use of ceramics, including silicon carbide, with their greater resistance to thermal shock. The problem was, however, to maintain a minimum amount of liquid between the two surfaces in contact, to ensure the necessary lubrication between sealing elements. These materials were developed by a single team that managed to work on both materials and develop each according to the needs of the other, in a mutual, parallel process. For automotive applications, today we are the only ones to have used this type of silicon carbide and carbon, in the wake of recent years’ technological challenge, namely the search for a raw material with particle sizes below 20 microns. These materials have therefore been developed to feature the least possible friction in working conditions and a stable lubrication film between parts, thus not only ensuring a low, uniform temperature but also keeping material buildups, noise and excessive torsion under control. Therefore, the request for friction reduction and the reaction to the variation of fluids and the contingent market needs have urged us to follow a path of research and development that has led us to change and evolve the components of our product and their structural and surface conditions. Carbon has gradually had an increasingly fine micro-grain. Silicon carbide surface porosity, which we have obtained with Laser technology instead of by pressing since 2010, was widened, making us gain a significant edge in precision terms. This also definitely improved the problem of noise resulting from rubbing: thanks to this parallel development, graphite powder particle size has been studied to perfectly interact with Silicon Carbide porosity, allowing us to avoid the suppliers’ “blackmail” for “standard” material supplies, as well as guaranteeing us far higher performance benefits with respect to our competitors. This process allowed us to position ahead of Japanese and German competitors, since we managed to industrialise production in a competitive way and, above all, within a functional process related to manufactured quantities: we still carry out mass production that requires low costs. So we can say that we optimised precision in light of the costs imposed on us by market conditions and production volumes. This is a 25-year story focused on continuous research, which today, continues to look to the next 25 years with the same attitude that in recent years has made it possible for customers to appreciate our difference. The market share we are currently holding in this area is entirely the result of our ability to solve customer problems. And if we have managed to give these answers, it is because we did not focus only on production costs, but we realized that design had to be moved from the product to the material. We can proudly say that instead of designing “only” the product, we designed the materials to build the product with. It is in this sense that talking, for example, of Designed Porosity for our silicon rings is tantamount to telling a complete vision, a method and a work approach typical of MTU: all design elements are instrumental to the customer’s result. The entire research and development phase took place in Campello sul Clitunno: an investment was needed here in Campello to serve all the manufacturing facilities for silicon carbide and laser surface finishing. A strategic choice we have made for 15 years, even at the expense of some competitiveness, but which guarantees control, quality and a certain degree of confidentiality. For manufacturing and marketing phases, however, foreign subsidiaries have come into the game as critical players to fiercely hit markets with the most competitive conditions ever, but above all with highly effective local logistic and manufacturing facilities. Just as the after-sales phase is fundamental for our type of relationship with customers, which is the tangible reason why we continue doing research, thanks to a structured continuous feedback process. Thus, the high-tech investments made in Campello have their raison d’être and are paid off by the group logic, allowing continuous and virtuous flow between product research and marketing, and allowing for mass production in the volumes required for its own subsistence, thanks to multiple requests from subsidiaries. It is precisely global sales that can support the required figures. Otherwise, manufacturing limited quantities of rings to only serve a local market would not be advantageous for anyone. 30 years ago we were the smallest of the 13 companies that operated in the automotive industry. Today, we are the second of three companies that survived, and all this is largely due to our research on materials. This allowed us to capitalise on an enormous competitive edge, with respect to competitors who have to purchase materials externally, which are sometimes not even specific to their applications, with consequent difficulties to adapt to technological leaps or market innovations. We managed to acquire 20-25% of the market share of our competitors who, especially due to technical matters rather than economic ones, have proven to be less flexible than we are. By researching, designing and building materials in house we have had more opportunities to meet requests, and more adequate reaction times”. This story describes how developing a seal for a given application has actually broadened the application base of the product it is used in. The growth of twin-screw pumps is intertwined with the design and reliability of the seals developed by Huhnseal, used in the food and beverage industry, “custom-made design” gains an even greater meaning and scope, as Daniele Ficorilli and Luca Tamburelli told us. Screw Pumps are pumps that are used for viscous products, such as honey or fruit they handle the product in a very gentle way, so much so that even strawberries are not damaged. It all began about 20 years ago. In early 2000, our collaboration with a customer who is still one of the industry leaders led us to develop some twin-screw pump seals for the food and beverage industry, for the first time. So we can say that it all started with this customer’s insight, which we made possible by contributing to the success of this technology for the food industry. Developing the product and fostering its natural growth required twenty years. In this period, there have been several generations of seals for twin-screw pumps, developed and modified according to changing industry standards and legislation. Huhnseal’s participation in the European Committee that oversees the design of hygienic equipment, the EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering Design Group — www.ehedg.org) was a major benefit for us. Huhnseal is an active member of this committee, whose function is to define the standards for the design of the hygienic components of engineering products. As a result we were able to apply rigorous technical design practices, making components more hygienic. Over time, not only has our product – the seal – evolved, but so has the pump itself, for use in new hygienic applications, for exampleits use with chocolate, where the mechanical seal was a limiting factor preventing Twin Screw Pump from being used with this product. Today Huhnseal is the main supplier of reliable seal solutions to OEM’s manufacturing twin screw pumps to be used for chocolate processing. As you can imagine, there are many parameters to monitor even for very slight use variations. We are proud to see how Huhnseal's research and development contribution has basically made it possible to help our partners develop the market and, thanks to a mechanical seal used in certain applications, to see the twin-screw pump as a possible solution. Our seal development has had a significant impact on the success of twin-screw pumps used in chocolate applications. All this is the result of our ability to custom design solutions that satisfies the needs of all stakeholders. Huhnseal is today a market leader in mechanical seals for pumps and rotating equipment to be used in the food and beverage industry. December 17, 2018 was a very special day for MTU Brazil. We organised the annual Solidarity Campaign, collecting and donating objects for children charities in need. Heartfelt thanks to all those who contributed to the donation. The objects collected were delivered to the Casa di Gesù Maria José Orphanage and the Casa della Madre Maria nursery. A Cultural Association was founded in 2017 among the employees of MTU to enhance the free time of all those who interact with our company with recreational, sports and cultural activities. Below are the pictures of the visit to the Royal Palace of Caserta on 11 May 2019. On 21 March 2019 we were pleased to host Francesca Pasinelli, Telethon’s General Manager. She discussed the crucial role played by this Foundation in the field of medical scientific research. We invest in our future and in Educational change and Development projects. A unique teaching experience, combining the English language with a theatre workshop, to enhance skills to be strengthened and made expendable. A collaboration with Primo Circolo Didattico Spoleto, which we are proud of, that took place directly at the Campello Sul Clitunno Nursery School. Thanks to the Principal, to the teachers, to the professionalism of Artelingua and its teacher, and of course thanks to all those who believed in our project and in a certainly innovative teaching proposal. And thanks to the children who have welcomed this teaching project with great effort and enthusiasm. On 22 December 2018, during the usual end-of-year party, we celebrated the 90th birthday of our vice president and Meccanotecnica Umbra founder, Fulvio Ginobri. A party in which the whole company participated with emotion, to exchange greetings and pay tribute to our beloved Mr Ginobri.

As media reactor, the Multi-Filter can hold various types of filtration media: - Fauna Marin Carb L activated carbon - Fauna Marin NPO Redu pellets - Fauna Marin Phos 0,04 - Fauna Marin Power Phos - Fauna Marin Ultra Phos - You can also comfortably mix Carb L and PO4 media together in one chamber without any issues. The Multi-Filter's space saving design allows for users to find a spot for it in even the smallest of spaces! Multi-Filter 1.5 Liter Dimensions: 9.4" x 5.5" x 13.8" (L x W x H) Capacity: Approximately 1.5 L Includes: Multi-Filter 1.5 L and controllable pump Multi-Filter 3.0 Liter Dimensions: 9.4" x 5.5" x 19.7" (L x W x H) Capacity: Approximately 3.0 L Includes: Multi-Filter 3.0 L and controllable pump Tank Assembly and Installation Step 1 Assemble the Multi-Filter by connecting the included pump to the body of the filter. Make sure the pump is fully open, see operating instructions enclosed with the pump. Step 2 Find a suitable area in your sump and place the Multi-Filter in that area. If possible, position the filter in front of a skimmer. This will allow the reactor media to more efficiently reduce nutrients. The reactor should not sit in a water level above 9.8" - 11.8". Make sure the reactor is standing straight at all times. Otherwise, performance will be compromised. Step 3 Remove the upper middle screw and screen, then add your filter media of choice. Re-position the screen and slightly tighten screw. Step 4 Adjust the pump outflow rate by turning the dial on the pump itself. Make sure the filter media is tumbling gently and not getting tossed around the reactor. Ensure that the filter media is always tumbling and getting sufficient water flow. In order for the reactor to maintain performance, we recommend you perform regular maintenance on the reactor. - Clean the upper screen with a soft brush - Clean the drain openings with a soft straw brush or pad - Clean the outer side-walls of the reactor with a pad 2 week maintenance - Clean pump body 3 - 4 week maintenance - Remove and clean lower screen by disassembling the reactor body. - Open center screw of the PVC pipe, remove upper screen. - Turn the lower screen on the center PVC pipe (threaded at the base) It is very important to make sure that the water is overflowing evenly throughout the reactor's outer walls. This allows for the drain water to be re-enriched with Oxygen which was previously consumed during the nutrient decomposition phase. Use the flow-adjustment knob to fine-tune the reactor flow rate and ensure that the reactor runs quietly.

Welcome to Old Style Listers Question: Do you sell Lister engines? Answer: No! We sell Listeroid engines from India. Listeroids are copies or clones of the original 1930's Lister with two Large flywheels and come with one or two cylinders. Average rpm's on these engines is between 400 and 900. Question: I heard the EPA band these engines in the U.S.A.? Answer: That's not entirely true. Currently only Listeroid engines coming into the U.S. must be EPA certified to clear customs. U.S. engine builders like WCAEAPS fall under different EPA rules and regulations. As of August 19, 2014 anyone in the U.S. can buy, sell, trade or own a Listeroid engine. When people ask me this question, I always smile and say (How many Listeroid engines would you like?) Question: I see Listeroid engines listed on E-Bay for $2,895.00, will you match there price? Answer: Yes! I will match or in some cases even offer the same Listeroid engine for much less. Example: 6/1 engine parts kit start at $1,495.00 and complete India Green engines start at $ 1,995.00. If you find a lower price send us proof that you can actually purchase the Listeroid engine at that price in the U.S. and I will match it. Old Style Listers has been selling Listeroid engines since 2000 and we are still selling Listeroids today. Why buy an incomplete Listeroid (Compressor) when you can buy a real working Listeroid from Old Style Listers instead! - Yes we have complete Listeroid engines - Yes we have Listeroid parts - Yes we sell Listeroid engine kits - Yes we offer heavy duty tools that will help you remove those stubborn flywheel keys - Yes we stand behind every Listeroid engine we sell with a warehouse full of parts - Yes we also customize parts for any Listeroid engine. See WCAEAPS for more information - Yes we can be reached anytime with one simple phone call or text message - Yes we have the answers to 97% of your Listeroid engine questions so go-ahead and ask - Yes we are the only true LISTEROID ENGINE DEALER IN THE U.S.A. - Yes all other Listeroid engine dealers have stopped selling Listeroid engines in the U.S.A.. Some may offer you a so called COMPRESSOR! Buyer Beware!!! A Listeroid engine is only as good as the parts you put into it. Soft cast-iron and out of round parts are always used in the lowest (Cheap) priced engines along with casting sand, thin casted cylinder blocks and so on. If you are serous about longevity then you must use parts like: steel idler gears, steel camshaft gears, induction hardened crankshafts, induction hardened camshaft lobes, custom camshafts, CNC machined pistons, CNC machined connecting rods, copper shell bearings, American grade 8 bolts, hardened, steel valve seats, steel valve guides, extra large roller bearings and so on. This is only a very small list of over 100 custom add-ons and features we can add to any Listeroid engine that will increase the life from 10,000 hours all the way to 120,000 + hours. No two customers will order the exact same engine with all the same upgrades from us so it is very important that you have a reasonable goal in mind and the budget to get it all done correctly the first time. Let us know what your budget is so we can build a custom engine to fit into your budget. Always include you full name, address and phone number when contacting us. No other engine comes close to one of these, plus if you install all our recommended upgrades your investment will also increase over time, just like your home. In the next few photos you will see how our customer has installed the engine for his home. Before you receive your engine from us you will need to build a proper cement foundation as shown. The engine should be high enough off the ground so you can hand start it easily. Build the enclosure (building) so it looks just like the rest of your home or office. Here you see that the exhaust has been run down into the cement and out side. On other installations the heat from the exhaust is used to make fresh hot water for showers, laundry and kitchen use. In this installation they decided to go with a radiator to keep the engine running at it's designed operating temperature. The alternative method is to use insulated storage tanks that keep the engine at it's designed operating temperature while storing the engines heat for other more important uses like heating your home, shop and excreta. After completion of your Listeroid power system and building as shown above the Listeroid system will actually increase the valve of your home so if you ever decide to sell your home you will receive back every penny spent and then some. Think smart and do it right!

The last day for Cummins Power Generation distributors to order Tier 4i-certified generator sets will be September 1. After that date, we will only be accepting orders for Tier 4 Final-certified generator sets. Orders for the Tier 4i models must be placed in August, through your local Cummins distributor. Because the Tier 4 Final generator sets are required to have additional emissions reductions features, they will be more expensive than the Tier 4i generators. Customers who are close to making a decision about purchasing generators should contact their distributor soon, while the lower cost generator sets are still available.

Food Manufacturer Finds Customized Solution for Infestation and Particle Reduction HANOVER, MA – An international manufacturer of flour and dried, mixed food ingredients initially began their search for a solution to reduce the particle size of and mix their product only to discover, during the research phase, that another machine existed capable of 100% infestation kill rate which could fit into a larger system. Given some of the manufacturer’s ingredients were heat sensitive, an out-of-the-box solution would not meet all their requirements so customization was critical. The manufacturer worked closely with Sturtevant, creators of particle size reduction and air classification equipment, to find suitable machines for their purposes. Initially, Sturtevant recommended the Simpactor, a centrifugal, pin-type impact mill but boasts a versatility in its functions including high-impact grinding and slower, RPM mixing and blending. The food manufacturer used the smallest version of the Simpactor for research and development purposes for particle reduction and high-intensity mixing but another recommendation was made when it came to light they also needed a solution for infestation control. The Infestroyer is a centrigual, pin-type impact mill that has shown a 100% kill rate on red flour beetles and their larvae. This machine could kill infestations before feeding the ingredients to the Simpactor that could then offer the particle reduction and mixing but the Simpactor needed to be customized to protect the food manufacturer’s ingredients,and avoid contamination, during the grinding process. In conjunction with Sturtevant’s engineering department, the dedicated Product Manager for the Simpactor presented customizations to the food manufacturer including being fabricated with stainless steel contact parts and a patent pending cooling technology. “Every application, even for the same material, has to be assessed individually and customizations suggested,” explains Steve Puleo, Product Manager for Sturtevant. Understanding specific needs of each inquiry allows for changes to machines that benefit the customer. Sturtevant Inc. is the leading family-owned manufacturer of material processing equipment including its patented Micronizer jet mill which produces sub-micron sized particles, Powderizer an air-swept impact mill with integral classifier, Simpactor and Infestroyer, centrifugal, pin-type mills and three types of high performance air classifiers that separate fine and coarse particles with precision and accuracy. For more information, check out the Simpactor product page, Infestroyer product page, or please contact the company at 1-800-992-0209 or email sales[at]sturtevantinc.com or visit https://sturtevantinc.com.

In high-temperature applications for piezoelectric pressure sensors, the electronics for charge amplification cannot be integrated into the sensors. This applies to measurements taken, for example, in the combustion chambers of reciprocating engines or in gas turbines. In these cases, external charge amplifiers are used, which convert the charge signal to a voltage signal outside the high-temperature zone. With the Ifta ChargeAmp, IfTA has introduced a new Ex nA (ATEX zone 2) certified differential in-line charge amplifier to the market; one specifically tailored to the requirements of high-temperature applications. - Selectable gain from 5 to 250 mV/pC - Output signal: 10 Vpp - Integrated band-pass filter (low-pass at 3 Hz – high-pass 20 kHz) - IEPE supply: 8-12mA recommended (functional with 4mA) compatible with ICP®, CCLD, Isotron®, Deltatron®, Piezotron® etc. - Very good 116 dB SNR - Excellent EMC properties - Differential input (single-ended version available) - Compensation for the pyroelectric "popcorn effect" with piezoelectric sensors - Ex nA (ATEX zone 2) certified (in conjunction with IfTA OMDS / DynaMaster) - Proven under harsh conditions (up to IP65) The IfTA ChargeAmp can be integrated between sensors and measuring devices without the need for an external power supply because it receives its power from an IEPE (compatible with ICP®, Piezotron® etc.) This simplifies the measurement chain and makes the charge amplifier universally compatible and inherently short-circuit-proof. Ex nA certification A version with Ex nA (ATEX) certification is available for use in hazardous environments. With this option, the charge amp can be located in zone 2, and the evaluation/plotting unit can be located outside of that zone. The IfTA Charge Amp is a differential charge amplifier that ensures optimal protection against common-mode noise such as mains hum, thus optimizing signal quality. A version with optimized CMRR is available for single-ended sensors. In order to obtain the optimal gain for all measuring chains, sensitivities from 5 to 250 mV / pC can be selected. 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 and 250 mV / pC are standardly available. With the modular amplifier concept, even individual customizations can be realized at low cost. Excellent EMC properties In industrial environments, it is important to pay attention to the electromagnetic compatibility of measuring equipment. This aspect has been given special consideration in the development of IfTA Charge Amp, the development phase of which was the subject of numerous tests, both in the EMC laboratory and in the field. In high-end A/D converters, such as those used in the IfTA AD4 line, for example, 24-bit precision is now available. To make the most of this precision, IfTA charge amplifier offers particularly low-noise amplification. At 1 kHz, the SNR is 116 dB. Sensor cracker during the charge amplification of high-temperature sensors presents a particular challenge. They arise when a sensor is heated so quickly that thermal stresses build up in the piezoelectric element. If a sudden expansion of the material occurs, large amounts of electric charge can be abruptly released. In simple charge amplifiers, this so-called pyroelectric effect("popcorn- effect") can overload the electronics for seconds and effectively blind a sensor. To meet this challenge, special measures have been taken to minimize the impact of this effect with the IfTA Charge Amp. In addition, the software detects the typical pattern of a sensor "shot" and can take this information into consideration during the analysis. The result is a charge amplifier with highest availability. Application in gas turbines A typical application for such a measurement chain is the measurement of pressure in the combustion chambers of stationary gas turbines in order to identify thermoacoustic combustion instabilities. For this purpose, the voltage signal that the charge amplifier generates is sampled by an analog input card (e.g. AD4 IEPE). The IfTA OMDS System performs special analyses of the frequency and time domains and, via a communication interface with the gas turbine controller, protects the machine against damage caused by combustion oscillations. Effective compensation for sensor "shots" is particularly important with such applications, so that costly spurious shutdown of the machine can be avoided. The alternative: IfTA AD4Pro with integrated charge amplifier In situations where the distance to the measuring system to be bridged is just a few meters, IfTA AD4Pro can be used. Each input of the measuring board has its own integrated full-fledged optionally-switchable IfTA ChargeAmp. Due to the charge signal's short transmission paths, this design enables optimal signal quality and flexibility. This option is also suitable for mobile applications, as additional electronics are eliminated. The amplification is configured via software and stored along with all of the measuring system's other configuration data. Especially with larger test setups, this has the decisive advantage that changes logged for past configurations can be easily restored. Thus, sources of error will be avoided and set-up is more flexible.

Fire vents are essential components in building safety systems designed to provide smoke control and natural ventilation in case of a fire emergency. These vents, installed in the roof, serve the crucial function of allowing the release of smoke, heat, and toxic gases, helping to prevent the buildup of dangerous conditions inside a structure during a fire. Fire vents can be either fixed or equipped with electronic or manual operation mechanisms, allowing for flexibility in their usage. By quickly venting smoke and heat, these systems aid in facilitating the safe evacuation of occupants and provide access for firefighting operations. Additionally, fire vents can also serve as natural ventilation systems, promoting airflow and improving indoor air quality in non-emergency situations. Their combination of functionality and versatility makes fire vents an important element in building safety and comfort.

China, Japan and Korea (CJK) have been competing and cooperating in many fields in the material, parts and equipment industries due to their geographical proximity and similarity in industrial structure. However, non-economic factors such as COVID-19 and sanctions against Korea by Japan and China pose obstacles to economic cooperation among CJK. Therefore, this study derives policy implications for the efficient management of global value chains (GVCs) in the materials, parts and equipment industries by comparing the supply chain structure of Korea’s materials, parts and equipment industries with Japan and China. The main contents of this study consist of four parts. First, this study analyzes changes in the trade structure and mutual connections between Korea, China and Japan in the materials, parts and equipment industries, from 2000 to 2018. Over the past 20 years, Korea’s materials, parts and equipment industries have grown significantly. During this period, the top industries for Korean exports/imports in the materials, parts and equipment sectors have been electronic components (1st), chemicals and chemical products (2nd), and primary metal products (3rd) ‒ areas of high competition with Japan and China in the global market. The biggest change in Korea’s materials, parts and equipment industries came in 2018, when the import and export rankings of textile products and non-metallic mineral products sharply declined, and the transportation machinery parts and semiconductor display equipment industries rose in their ranking. These changes reflect the fall in production of general-purpose technology industries in Korea, accompanied by an increase in the proportion of industries requiring advanced technology and specialization in related industries. General purpose technology products have changed to a trend of importing from China or third countries. Trade in China’s materials, parts and equipment industries also grew rapidly during the same period, and imports and exports of general-purpose technology products increased significantly. The top trade items of China’s materials, parts and equipment industries are electronic products, electrical equipment parts, chemicals and chemical products. China shows very high competitiveness in textile products, but when compared to other industries in terms of export and import data for 2018, these were found to have declined significantly in terms of size and competitiveness against 2001 levels. Japan’s materials, parts and equipment industries are still highly competitive. However, the share of industries related to general-purpose technology has been reduced, and only industries specializing in advanced technology fields remain visibly competitive. The remarkable changes in the Japanese materials, parts and equipment industries over the past 20 years have led to a decline in the stature of the textile industry, and the status of the semiconductor display equipment industry has risen far higher than in the past. Meanwhile, the characteristics of imports and exports between Korea and China, Korea and Japan, and Japan and China were identified by classifying the materials, parts, and equipment industries into 231 fields. Trade between Korea and China in the materials, parts and equipment industries is concentrated in 20 items, each accounting for more than 1% of the import and export items. As for Japan’s exports in materials, parts and equipment industries to China, there was no detectable phenomenon of specific items dominating exports. The characteristics of Japanese imports from China are similar to those of Korea, but differed in that no items account for more than 1% of imports from China in the equipment industries. Second, the study examined the competitiveness of materials, parts and equipment industries of CJK by comparing the share of imports and exports of materials, parts, and equipment industries, and calculating Revealed Symmetric Comparative Advantage Index (RSCA), Export Similarity Index (ESI), and Trade Specialization Index (TSI) for each country. When looking at the share of imports and exports of the materials, parts and equipment industries by CJK in the global market, the rise of China (3.2% in 2001 → 14.4% in 2018) is prominent. On the other hand, Japan’s share of exports declined, while Korea’s increased. A field in which Japan occupies an overwhelming position in the export market of the global materials, parts and equipment industries is the semiconductor display equipment industry. The Korean semiconductor display equipment industry relies on overseas sources for over 90% of its procurement, indicating the need for caution of dependence on Japan in the field. When analyzing RSCA, Japan had the highest competitiveness, but the gap with Korea has been narrowing since 2016 after peaking in 2011. China continues to show a large gap with Korea and Japan. Korea-China, Korea-Japan, and Japan-China ESI has steadily increased over the past 20 years. During the same period, ESI between Korea and China (56.4 → 66.9) increased the most. ESI between Korea and Japan (57.5 → 61.3) and ESI between Japan and China (55.0 → 60.2) also increased. When examining TSI data, Korea’s competitiveness in textile products, rubber and plastic products, and semiconductor display equipment has weakened compared to the beginning of 2000. All other 13 fields show improved competitiveness. China has improved its competitiveness in all 16 fields. On the other hand, Japan’s competitiveness in the primary metal products, semiconductor display equipment, and measurement equipment industries has improved, while its competitiveness in the other 13 fields has weakened. Third, the study analyzed the changes and characteristics of GVCs in the materials, parts and equipment industries of CJK using the World Input-Output Table. Taking into account the structural characteristics of production and trade taking place from 2010 to 2018 in the materials, parts and equipment industries of China, Japan and Korea, the production-induced effects (feedback effects, spillover effects, domestic induced effects, etc.) generated under global value chains in the three nations were calculated. It was also analyzed how each country’s production and trade induce other countries’ production and trade. The analysis results are as follows. 1) The backward linkage effect of materials, parts and equipment industries in CJK was significantly different in 2018 compared to the year 2000, leading to a significant change in GVC from the perspective of production technology. 2) It was observed that the level of production-induced effects to partner countries in the materials, parts and equipment industries of CJK has also changed significantly. 3) The globalization of the economy among CJK is having a significant impact on the GVCs change in the materials, parts and equipment industries. In addition, Korea’s import-dependent GVCs linkage with China and Japan is becoming relatively deeper than that of China and Japan. 4) All three nations show deeper GVCs linkage of production technology, focusing on key export products such as electrical equipment and electronic parts, primary metals and metal processing products, textile products, general machinery parts and equipment, and transportation machinery parts. Through this, it was confirmed that a horizontal division of labor and competition systems are being established not only in the global market but in partner markets as well. 5) Measuring the inducement structure of production and trade in the materials, parts and equipment industries of CJK shows that the spillover effects of all three countries increased in each other, indicating the formation of interdependent GVC linkage. 6) The direction of CJK spillover effect changed from “China → Japan, Japan → China, Korea → Japan” in 2000 to “China → Korea, Japan → China, Korea → China” in 2000, signifying a rise in China’s influence. 7) When examining the results of direct and indirect decomposition of the spillover effects among the three countries, indirect spillover effects were found to be quite small. 8) Overall, Japan’s materials, parts and equipment industries are highly concentrated in domestic production and show a relatively low level of production-induced effects for other countries. Fourth, GVC linkage was verified through a survey of materials, parts and equipment companies. The survey was conducted on 3,260 materials, parts and equipment companies during January 2021, and 502 valid samples were obtained. The importance of China and Japan was once again confirmed as a result of a survey on the need to reorganize the supply chain of the materials, parts and equipment industries in Japan and China caused by COVID-19 and diplomatic issues. The results indicate it will be difficult for a new form of GVCs to replace Japan and China for the time being. The importance of Japan and China as trading partners is still high, and there is low possibility of changing sources of procurement from Japan or China. In the end, despite many restrictions due to non-economic issues, Japan and China remain important partners for Korean’s materials, parts and equipment companies. Therefore, the government needs to take this situation into account and actively engage in diplomatic efforts for a win-win approach with China and Japan. However, CJK represent one of the most sensitive regions to non-economic shocks such as natural disasters and disputes between the United States and China. Therefore, it is necessary to shift from the existing cost- and efficiency-based global value chains (GVC) management to a rational GVC management based on supply chain stabilization. As the trend of strategic weaponization is expected to continue gaining strength in the core materials, parts and equipment industries, it is necessary to move away from monopolistic supply chains and pursue a strategy for multi-polarization of the supply chain, and reasonable decoupling from countries where potential risks exist. In addition, domestic self-reliance should be promoted in fields with high foreign dependence, such as the semiconductor display equipment industry. Also, most companies in the materials, parts and equipment industries are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) greatly lacking in terms of technology development and market dominance, meaning that measures are urgently needed to address this concern. Finally, considering the pace of development in China’s materials, parts and equipment industries over the past 20 years, the gap in competitiveness of the materials, parts and equipment industries in CJK will be greatly reduced, and the GVCs of China-centered materials, parts and equipment industries are expected to show significant advances. It will be necessary to prepare countermeasures by the government and companies accordingly. The materials, parts and equipment industries in Korea should transition from general-purpose technology to more specialized and advanced technology. Towards this, the policy proposals in this report, based on an analysis of competitiveness and corporate satisfaction with government policies, merit careful consideration.

CCW Completes First 60-Foot Battery Electric Bus Rehabilitation Complete Coach Works (CCW) announced that it has completed the nation’s first conversion of a 60-foot diesel-powered articulated bus to a battery-electric bus for TriMet. CCW has combined the Voith Electric Drive System (VEDS) with CCW’s own Zero Emission Propulsion System (ZEPS) battery technology to solve the challenge of converting to electric in a 60ft articulated transit bus . Since 2012, CCW has converted over 70, 30, 35, and 40 foot fossil fuel-powered transit buses to battery-electric buses. The company offers 403 kWh and 504 kWh NMC lithium-ion batteries. CCW now offers customers a 605kWh NMC lithium-ion battery and powertrain solution to support larger and heavier vehicles that will easily carry their much higher passenger loads. CCW has converted a 2007 New Flyer 60-foot articulated diesel-powered transit bus into a battery-electric bus. The project included a complete restoration of TriMet’s bus, known as the Desert Rose, to like-new condition with the NMC ZEPS 605 kWh lithium-ion battery and VEDS powertrain. “We’ve worked with TriMet in the past to convert three 40-foot low-floor transit buses to battery-electric buses, but this was the first time we faced a 60-foot articulated bus, which requires more storage. energy than any previous conversion,” said CCW Regional Sales Manager Jim Paul. “We have once again proven ourselves in this achievement and thank our project partners. Advanced CCW batteries combined with VEDS provide the bus with a significantly longer operating range while maintaining its lifespan. Keeping low-floor, high-traffic buses running and looking like new Articulated buses not only carry more passengers, but generally offer a lower-floor design that provides greater passenger accessibility. TriMet’s 14-year-old refurbished bus not only features new lightweight passenger seats, flooring, new branding and exterior and interior LED lighting, it also provides a new ramp ADA Compliant Wheelchair Mount for faster passenger boarding. “Our process significantly extends the life of the bus while providing a much quieter, emission-free ride for Portland commuters,” Paul said. “The teamwork between CCW, TriMet and Voith not only raises the bar for TriMet in achieving its green initiatives, but paves the way for more agencies to adopt retrofitted electric buses as part of their fleets. .” TriMet has begun extensive testing and evaluation of this inaugural 60-foot model on a Portland Metro expressway where the bus is already proving its reliability, according to TriMet. “TriMet is proud to partner with CCW in our quest to be the transit agency leading the renewable energy campaign, and Desert Rose has been a shining star – a giant of a rose. performance of this 60ft articulated bus is incredible and we look forward to a continued partnership with CCW,” said Samuel Rumhizha, Bus Maintenance Manager, TriMet.

Chicken grease and other by-products are automatically pumped from the cavity drain into nearby mobile grease collection containers, which can hold enough volume for multiple batches of chicken during the workday. The mobile grease collection containers can then be easily rolled to a disposal site as needed. Created specifically for use with Alto-Shaam’s gas and electric Combitherm ovens, this automatic grease collection system is the most recommended way to keep your employees and your kitchen protected from messy spills and slippery floors. Employees will only have to handle grease that is stored safely in a container that simply needs to be capped when full. The National Restaurant Association recently announced that Alto-Shaam’s Automatic Grease Collection System was a recipient of a 2012 Kitchen Innovations (KI) Award, which recognizes cutting-edge kitchen equipment in the foodservice market. An independent, expert panel of judges comprised of internationally recognized food facilities consultants, multi-unit executives and design experts selected the grease collection system for its significant innovation that improves quality, productivity, service, and most importantly, employee safety. The Automatic Grease Collection System will be showcased in Alto-Shaam’s exhibit and the interactive Kitchen Innovations Pavilion at the 2012 National Restaurant Association Show, May 5-8 at Chicago’s McCormick Place. Founded in 1956, Alto-Shaam is the inventor of the original Cook & Hold oven that revolutionized low-heat cooking and the commercial cooking industry. Today, Alto-Shaam features a full line of Cook & Hold ovens, smokers, Heated Holding Cabinets and Drawer Warmers, Combitherm combi ovens, convection ovens, thermal shelves and carving stations, Hot Wells, merchandisers and display cases, Quickchiller blast chillers, fryers, and rotisseries.

Is the Moto X Force the worlds first unbreakable smartphone? Motorola announced their latest flagship handset the Moto X Force in an interesting manner - by pitting it against the best devices from Apple and Samsung. While it isn't unusual for manufacturers to compete with one another for the accolade of 'smartphone of the year' stacking their camera capabilities, device speeds, usability and functionality against competitors device's. What is unusual is for a manufacturer to purposefully drop their device in the announcement video. In the video below you can see Rick Osterloh the President of Motorola Mobility dropping the popular iPhone 6(s?) and Samsung Galaxy S6 onto a hard floor (from a considerable height). Osterloh looks unsatisfied with the thin spidery cracks that now adorn the face of his competitor's devices only to then drop the new Moto X Force - upon retrieval of which is unharmed. The Moto X Force is being touted by Motorola as the world's first shatterproof display ever on a smartphone thanks to Moto Shattershield thanks to its clever multi-layer construction. Thanks to five individual flexible plastic layers that are stacked on top of the OLED panel instead of the usual glass, the display flexes when stressed. While this all sounds great on paper, does it work in the real world? So far all tests perfomed by reviewers on various tech sites as well as YouTubers would indicate that yes, the display is virtually impossible to break. This is where the UnlockRiver team come in, unsatisfied with the relatively pleasant methods used so far to test the strength of the Shattershield display they've decided to test Motorola's claims at some serious height - 275 meters to be exact. As you can see in the video the Moto X Force survives its encounter with gravity and in turn the ground spectacularly still working flawlessly after what would have been a catastrophic drop for any other device.

What is the principle of thermal insulation bag? There is a thermal insulation material in the thermal insulation bag. The thermal conductivity of this material is relatively low, which blocks the contact with the air, so that the temperature inside the bag can gather in the bag and can not be directly dispersed. In this way, the time of temperature loss in the bag is prolonged, and the purpose of thermal insulation is achieved. Generally speaking, the thermal insulation bag material has poor thermal conductivity and slow heat dissipation. Insulation package features: 1. Heat and cold insulation Heat and cold insulation is the basic function of thermal insulation bag. It is a special bag with short-term thermal insulation effect. It can keep cold / heat. The product insulation layer is pearl cotton + aluminum foil tin paper, which can provide good thermal insulation effect. To have superior impact resistance, it is not easy to break and leave scratches when pressed or impacted. This is the first consideration in choosing insulation package. Although different products have different sealing methods, sealing is a necessary condition for the lasting preservation of stored food. The international sealing measurement standard is evaluated by moisture permeability test. The moisture permeability of high-quality insulation package is 200 times lower than that of similar products, which can keep things fresh for a longer time. Precautions for insulation tape: 1. Open flame contact or sharp tool cutting is disabled. 2. Avoid long-term exposure to rain, humidity and sunlight, which will affect the thermal insulation effect.

Drill/radio: Charge your drill's batteries with rhythm By JAMES CUMMINGS Cox News Service DAYTON, Ohio -- People who work on big building and remodeling projects will tell you that it's important to arrive first on the work site in the morning so you can plug in your radio and crank it up before any of the other crews arrive. If you get to the work site after the first crew has arrived, you might be doomed to spending the day listening to operatic arias or polkas or whatever other musical genre sets your teeth on edge. Now you can feel like a professional contractor while hanging curtain rods around the house. Ryobi has introduced a variable-speed drill kit with an AMFM radio that doubles as a battery charger -- the way some professional work-site radios do. The Ryobi 9.6-volt drill/radio kit comes with two rechargeable batteries. You can use one battery while plugging the extra one into the radio to charge. If the first battery starts to give out, you can swap it for the charged battery and keep working. The drill is a basic do-it-yourselfer model that spins from zero to 550 revolutions per minute, depending on the pressure the user applies to the trigger. It has a 24-position clutch that can be set for driving screws into various materials without stripping the screws. The drill has a keyless chuck, a built-in level for drilling straight holes and nonslip texturing over the whole drill body to provide a firm grip. The charger in the radio can recharge one of the batteries in three to six hours. When it's not in use, the radio has a storage compartment for the drill and the extra battery. You can sit the radio on a workbench or other flat surface, or you can attach it to the wall using hardware that comes with the kit. According to Ryobi, the drill/radio kit is sold exclusively at Home Depot stores for $49.97. Back to top

Reliable data on construction volumes and development phenomena allow providing many types of additional services for clients. This blog presents a case example of the use of construction data in forecasting developments in the construction equipment rental market. Many studies have been conducted in Finland on the use and rental markets of construction equipment in the 2010’s. Methods and systematics for predicting the demand for them have been developed. The work began with extensive research. All important parties involved in equipment rental took part: construction equipment renters, sellers and importers as well as large construction companies. This was necessary since it was essential to get data on the kinds of equipment used on different types of sites, their number and hours of use, and timing of use during a building project, and operating costs. It is often also necessary to know the client’s other markets besides construction. For instance, rental equipment are well suited for industrial maintenance, which is why industry rents a lot of construction equipment. Purchasing own equipment would not be sensible since the utilisation rate is often low. Renters provide modern equipment just right for the purpose that meet the ever-increasing legal requirements. The Nordic equipment rental business has been in a very interesting situation recently. Corporate acquisitions tell about the attractiveness of the industry. French Loxam acquired Finnish international rental company Ramirent and Belgian Boels Rental has launched a bid to acquire the other big Finnish rental company Cramo. Both Ramirent and Cramo are operating in the Nordic market and other foreign countries. High volume, strong growth and positive prospects of the rental services have also interested investors. Accurate knowledge of market developments creates confidence for investors. Construction equipment rental market is more than EUR 3.6 bn in the Nordic countries Renting of construction equipment is one step on the way towards a circular, sharing economy. Renting of equipment improves resource efficiency, construction work safety, and productivity. The environmental impacts of construction can also be ameliorated with constantly renewed equipment that is used effectively and efficiently. The rental market has been growing strongly for many years. Growth has focused primarily on new building construction in recent years. Rental market looks favorable in coming years, even though the construction market is already turning into a slight downward trend next years. The strong growth of rental volume in construction machinery and equipment will level off. Rental will grow a bit in 2020 in Nordic countries mainly due renovation and civil engineering. Rental business will grow, although construction is expected to decrease slightly. The sharp decline in construction of block of flats will not turn the whole rental business growth negative. The share of equipment that has been used in the block of flats construction is only 15 per cent in the current rental market. Non-residential construction is the most important sector for machinery, and it is becoming the engine of construction equipment rental market. Rental is growing strongly in commercial, office and healthcare building construction. Non-residential construction uses much more construction machinery and equipment than residential construction. The penetration rate for construction equipment rental in Sweden is high and probably the highest across Europe. Penetration shows the share of usage of rental equipment of the total equipment use in building construction. Rental penetration is expected to continue to grow. High utilization of construction capacity and the shortage of labor is increasing demand for construction equipment. Even if the majority (2/3) of machinery and equipment rental serves construction business, the use of other industries is large. The remainder is rented to other branches such as industry, service producers, public administration and private persons for maintenance, installation etc. Service industries have increased the use of rental equipment. Especially in Sweden the other use is very important, namely due to specialized industries, such as mining. Construction equipment rental growth will continue in renovation sector. Growth is accelerated due to replacement of human labor with construction machinery, higher quality requirements and challenging working conditions. Renovation focuses on professional renovation sector, which contributes to equipment rental growth. Construction equipment rental has the potential to grow in the future, not only in the Nordic countries, where penetration is already high, but also elsewhere in Europe. The European construction equipment rental market is currently highly fragmented and there are lot of construction equipment rental companies. The trend where large companies acquire small ones is likely to continue and the industry will attract interest of capital investors.

Lubricant analysis has been proven to be a highly effective way to see inside of engines and transmissions without taking them apart. When purchasing a new or used recreational vehicle consider having fluid samples analyzed from all fluids. Fluid analysis helps you see any concerns or problems and gives you a baseline for future testing. Oil and coolant analysis provides you with a detailed, yet easy to understand, report. This report covers all test results along with probable causes and solutions. RV P. I. recommends that samples be taken from the engine oil, transmission oil, engine coolant, generator oil and generator coolant to provide an overall picture of the health of the RV. When hiring RV P. I. to complete a Pre-Purchase Inspection make sure to visit with us about adding fluid analysis. Once we obtain fluid samples they are mailed to an independent laboratory for testing. Results should be received within five to seven days after the samples are received at the laboratory. If you need the results sooner, please discuss this with us so we can add a rush service, which incurs an additional charge. Further, we would be happy to assist with obtaining periodic fluid samples to help maintain your recreational vehicle. Contact us today to learn more about the benefits of fluid analysis and to add them to your inspection report or as a standalone service.

This is cool technology! ~Declan Pretty in Pink: 3D-Printing 'Jimmy Choos' for Horses By Marc Lallanilla, Assistant Editor | November 22, 2013 03:13pm As posted on Live Science These custom-made horseshoes were created in minutes with a 3D printer that uses titanium as a design material.| Designed by researchers at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), the Australian science agency, the hot-pink horseshoes are custom-made for each of a horse's four hooves, using lightweight titanium and 3D-printing technology. Each new shoe weighs about 3.5 ounces (100 grams) less than a regular aluminum horseshoe — and every ounce counts in the high-stakes world of horse racing. "Any extra weight in the horseshoe will slow the horse down," trainer John Moloney said in a statement. "These titanium shoes could take up to half of the weight off a traditional aluminum shoe, which means a horse could travel at new speeds." [The 10 Weirdest Things Created By 3D Printing]

The Zonda Revolucion was a special, "final version" of the Zonda that was released in 2013 only to special clients and family members, during “Vanishing Point 2013”, the international Pagani gathering. Mercedes-AMG developed the engine, a 6. 0 L (366 cu in) V12 that produced 800 PS (590 kW; 790 hp) and 729 N⋅m (538 lb⋅ft) of torque, connected to an Xtrac 672 6-speed transversal and sequential gearbox that could change gears in 20 milliseconds. The whole car weighs less than a Mini Cooper, thanks to a carbotanium tub at its core, resulting in a 1,070 kg (2,359 lb) kerb weight. The Revolucion also features DRS (Drag Reduction System), and two different operating modes: one that's available with a minimum speed of 100 km/h (62 mph), and another that changes the rear wing, switching the maximum and minimum down-force settings. Pagani's chief test driver Davide Testi claimed that the Revolucion could be a full 15 seconds quicker than the Zonda R around the Nürburgring. Only five of these cars were built, and they were priced at €2. 2 million before taxes.

Ten years ago, Eichi was released, and in 2014, the Eichi II gained high praises worldwide for its simplicity of design, the exquisite finishing of the movements, the innovative torque return system, and most of all, for the hand-polished pure white porcelain dial. On this tenth anniversary, a new version of Eichi II is released, this time in an 18k rose gold version. Eichi is the Japanese word for “widsom” and reflects the fusion of traditional Japanese watchmaking skills with the highest and most advanced Spring Drive technology. Eichi II is made by the elite watchmakers at the Micro Artist Studio in Shiojiri in central Japan. This studio, founded in the year 2000, garnered a worldwide reputation for creating masterpieces like the Credor Spring Drive Sonnerie in 2006, the Credor Spring Drive Minute Repeater in 2011, the Credor Spring Drive Eichi II in 2014, and the Grand Seiko Spring Drive 8 Day Power Reserve in 2016. The Spring Drive technology is a remarkable piece of work. It offers a precision of one second a day. The Torque Return System is a propriety mechanism that maximizes the advantages of the Spring Drive movement’s high torque. On regular watches, after the mainspring has been fully wound, the torque that is stored is, of course, at its highest. Releasing that torque to the mechanism may be too much for the movement to handle. So a good percentage of that power is “let go”. That much power is “thrown away” to make sure that the movement is not damaged. Seiko’s patented Torque Return System is ingeniously built in such a way that the “excess energy” is used to rewind the mainspring. This results in a 25% increase in the power reserve. Because of this system, the watch now has a 60-hour power reserve, enough stored power to last through an entire weekend. The rose gold case of the Credor Spring Drive Eichi II went through a cold forging process. Hot forging involves heating metal to such high temperatures then pressing it into shape to form the watch case. Cold forging is done at room temperature, and pressed with much greater force. This process is repeated several times to create the case. And because of this, the case has a greater density, and is more resilient against scratches. The surfaces are then Zaratsu polished, which creates a mirror-like finish with practically no distortions. The mechanism driving The Credor Spring Drive Eichi II 18k Rose Gold watch is the Calibre 7R14, a manual winding movement that has an accuracy of +/- 1 second per day (+/- 15 seconds per month), and a power reserve indicator. This watch is a well-crafted timepiece, bearing the qualities that the Japanese are well known for: simple, beautiful, and technologically advanced.

American Motorcyclist July 2018 One Ticket To Motorcycling Paradise By Joe Boyce Ever have a few days open and have a “use it or lose it” airline ticket burning a hole in your pocket? I found a great way to take advantage of that situation with a recent blitz trip from my home in Albuquerque, N.M., to the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in Pickerington, Ohio, and, then, the Barber Motorsports Museum in Birmingham, Ala. It’s a pilgrimage I have always wanted to take and one I would recommend to anyone who loves motorcycles and their history. The two museums are quite different and complement each other nicely, and I was able to find flights that let me see both in two days. It’s just a little too far for a quick ride, and I enjoy dirt riding much more than highway slogging—no offense to those who can punch out the miles. AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Since I was solo, I had time to linger and study bikes in the design and engineering section, followed by dirt track bikes, motocross and specialty bikes, and that was just a quarter of the place. It took about three laps and five hours for me to get my fill. The dirt trackers section brought back memories of seeing Kenny Roberts win the amateur race at Oklahoma City in 1971 and his kindness to this wide-eyed kid in the pits. Each display has a brief history and key info, which, combined with the info from the website, makes for an in-depth picture of the people and bikes that make up American motorcycle history. My favorite bike was the 1968 Penton 125 Six-Day in the International Six Days Enduro display. The Penton is on loan to the museum by John Born. It was fun to track how early water cooling, mono shocks, shaft drives, telescoping forks and other technical achievements came into being. Those guys in the early 1900s were amazing. The International Six Days Enduro-winning team’s bikes were a great special exhibit. But every bike, brand and rider had a unique tale. For history and stories, aka tradition, this is the place. Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum A quick flight to Alabama and Barber Motorsports Museum was next up. This museum is huge, the biggest in the United States, with more than 1,400 bikes. There’s a race track outside, and part of the museum is dedicated to Lotus cars, which is also part of Barber’s heritage. I challenge any true motorcyclist to walk in and not drop their jaw. They have some of the rarest, weirdest bikes, along with samples of every era and genre. The museum leans towards street and race bikes, but it has an incredible number of bikes from the turn of the 20th century to recent models. Every bike is restored and displayed expertly. If you want to feel inadequate about your garage, this is the place. I didn’t see a drop of oil during the whole tour, even under the three-story bike tower. Ever heard of a 1950s Zimmer? Emil Zimmerman cast the metal himself, with a rotary valve engine. How about 1920s A.B.C.—front and rear suspension, drum brakes, multi-plate clutch? Or a 1920s Scott with water cooling, oil injection and more than 50 patents? Of course, there are also the usual plethora of Harleys, Indians and BMWs and a sampling of many brands I never knew existed. There are so many pristine examples, it’s obvious Mr. Barber loves bikes very much and a lot of time, talent and money has been invested here. If you like motorcycles at all and appreciate history, technology or stories of people who made a difference in our sport, you need to see both these museums. It’s a great way to induce smiles and try to get a motorcycle hangover. Joe Boyce is an AMA Life Member from Albuquerque, N.M.

From Rusty Postlewate, Assistant Vice President for Facilities Management We apologize for the inconvenience, but a significant leak in the high temperature hot water line from the Central Utility Plant requires work to be performed that will impact the availability of hot water service on campus. WHAT: A scheduled hot water outage WHERE: For the academic core of the main campus (True Grits and Residential Life buildings will not be affected, except Erickson Hall) WHEN: 4 PM Monday, August 15 until 6 AM Thursday morning WHY: A significant leak has developed in the main high temperature (340 degrees) hot water line that provides heat and hot water to the core buildings on main campus. The repair time is quite long due to the size of the line (20” diameter) that has to be drained and allowed to cool, prior to repair EFFECT: This repair will result in a hot water outage in the academic core of the main campus Additional information from Chartwells: – The Skylight Room, Au Bon Pain and Famous Famiglia in the Commons will not be operating on Tuesday, 8/16/11, and Wednesday, 8/17/11. – Outtakes in the Commons will be in operation and will offer pre-made sandwiches, salads, wraps and other assorted Outtakes items along with baked goods, packaged chips and beverages. Au Bon Pain coffee will be offered at this location. – Administration Coffee Shop: The Coffee Shop will only be able to offer coffee, pre-packaged Outtakes items as noted above, packaged chips and beverages only. – True Grit’s will be open (as hot water is provided to this facility from a different source). On Tuesday and Wednesday, Chartwells is offering a special $7.50 rate for an “all you care to eat” lunch each day. THANK YOU for tolerance during this inconvenient outage, which is needed to provide campus utility services. Your patience and cooperation to accommodate this interruption is truly appreciated.

Battery powered chainsaws are ideal for use some distance from a power source. There’s no cord to limit movement and they’re lighter than petrol models, making them easier to carry around. They generally match the power of corded types, though are less powerful than petrol and so suit smaller jobs. They’re quiet so good if using in a busy residential area, and require little maintenance – ideal if using once or twice a year. Working from a battery, they only have a certain period of charge and so it can be worth investing in a spare battery to prevent unwelcome breaks. Using an electric saw is also practical and comfortable, since the vibrations are smaller and it is less noisy. And you don’t have to worry about fumes and emissions. For electric saws, consider amperages. An electric motor’s amp rating describes how much power it can handle before internals may start to break down. Saws with a 14-amp rating are more than suitable for most home uses. The battery’s ampere hour (Ah) or amp rating goes hand-in-hand with its voltage. This measures the electric charge and dictates the capacity of the battery supplied. The higher the capacity, the longer the battery will run for. A 14- to 18-inch-long bar saw is an excellent meet-in-the-middle size that can handle most DIY-type jobs. They can fell small trees, buck large branches, and cut firewood without much issue. These bars also are easy to find if they need to be replaced. Corded electric saws and battery-powered saws are often the lightest chainsaws on the market. They don’t require a full tank of fuel mix, and their motors are smaller, so they are lighter weight and easier to use in a variety of scenarios.

Electric furnaces come in a variety of configurations and are similar to the more common gas-forced air furnaces. Most electric furnaces are multi-flow units (meaning that the same unit can be positioned in a variety of ways: up flow, down flow, or horizontal). Compared to electric baseboard heating systems, forced-air electric furnaces provide the advantage of a centralized air handling system with air filtration, humidification, and control of air distribution. The additional installed cost of a central electric furnace system over a zonal heating system is probably justified in only two instances, if you will be: Filtering the Air, or Installing a Central Cooling System.

Several large Recreational Vehicle (RV) OEM’s were looking to address one of their major field service issues related to detecting the level of drinking water and waste water in large polyethylene/polypropylene holding tanks. Traditional probe technology was inaccurate and prone to failure. The LevelGuard team provided our patented “field effect” sensors that were easily applied to the outside of the holding tank and could “read” the liquid level through the plastic tank wall. Suitable for tank wall thicknesses from 3MM-10MM this solution provided RV OEM’s with a reliable liquid level monitoring solution. The robust sensor is completely potted and designed for many years of robust service. LevelGuard tank monitor sensors made RV holding tank sensing issues a thing of the past.

WARNING: Hand Cranking can cause serious injury or death! Hate to start this with a warning but very important to understand how dangerous it can be to hand crank an engine. Please take this warning seriously. Hand cranking a Model A can be fairly simple to do if you know how. It was there for more reasons than timing the engine. Keep in mind that if the engine is prone to backfire you might not want to hand crank. - Make sure the emergency brake is engaged. The Transmission must be in neutral. The ignition should be turned OFF. - Fully retard the spark by moving the spark advance lever to the top position. - The throttle should be set to just above a normal idle. - Set the fuel mixture as normal for starting. - Place the hand crank in position. It should be facing at about the 9 o’clock position. Hold the hand crank from standing from the driver’s side of the car with an overhand (fingers on top, thumb under) grasp. - Pull the hand crank towards you quickly. Do not push the crank down or try to keep cranking continuously. It should be a yank from about 9 o’clock to about 1 o’clock. You may need to repeat 2-3 times before starting. - Turn the ignition on. Do not set the choke closed when starting or you may experience a dangerous kickback. - Again set the hand crank in position at 9 o’clock. Pull the crank towards you quickly.

Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery Dr. Alexander Slocum joined Atlantic Plastic Surgery after having completed the Integrated Plastic Surgery Residency Program at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) in Milwaukee. As a New Hampshire native, he has been very happy starting his practice in Portsmouth and becoming a part of the Seacoast community. Dr. Slocum and his family Dr. Slocum earned a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he created several new medical devices before moving to West Virginia to attend medical school at Marshall University (with his wife, who is also a physician). After earning his Medical Doctorate (MD), he returned to Boston to begin his surgical training at Harvard Medical School, completing an internship in General Surgery at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Dr. Slocum was then offered a position in the Integrated Plastic Surgery Residency at MCW. While in training, Dr. Slocum completed over 1,700 distinct cases; during his time in Milwaukee he says, “The faculty at MCW hold the residents to a very high standard”. In his final year, he served as Chief Resident and regularly saw patients in the Chief Resident’s Aesthetic Clinic. Dr. Slocum’s surgical expertise is the result of rigorous training covering the depth and breadth of Plastic Surgery, including Aesthetics, Breast Reconstruction, Facial Trauma, Hand Surgery, and reconstruction of various soft tissue defects.

Concrete Floor Sealing: What is Concrete? Concrete consists of water, Portland cement, sand, fly ash, slag cement, and aggregates such as gravel, limestone, granite, or agate. When combined with water and aggregate, powdered Portland cement hardens by hydration. The concrete is poured semi-liquid, laid, and then compacted to solidify. Concrete floor sealing is important to maintain the floor. Concrete is the most-used man-made substance. Concrete Floor Sealing: The Curing Process After 28 days, you will need to seal the concrete. New concrete is alkaline and will harm the sealant. Concrete cures via hydration and shouldn’t be sealed with more than 4 to 5% moisture. Wet concrete sealer fails. Concrete Floor Sealing: Why Seal Concrete? Natural concrete floors need sealing to prevent: - Sealing minimises concrete porosity and discoloration from, for example, engine oil - Sealing protects against acids and alkalis. - Sealing increases the concrete’s appearance. - Sealing avoids surface wear and dusting. - Sealing increases abrasion resistance and surface protection. Recommended Concrete Floor Sealing Products Pre-sealer Floor Cleaning Surface filth, contamination, red soil stains, and laitance may all be removed from concrete with acid-based cleaners such as Stoneshield Brick and Masonry Cleaner. Acid-based cleansers may remove surface filth, pollution, red soil stains, and laitance from concrete. Surface etching is crucial for adherence. Sealer failure results from improper etching. Etch concrete using an inhibited acid that prevents metal rust such as Stoneshield Brick and Masonry Cleaner™ Concrete must be fully dry, with 4-5 percent moisture and a 80-grit sandpaper-like finish before proceeding with sealing. Stoneshield Premium Plus™ The Stoneshield Premium Plus™ is a twin pack, premium non-yellowing solvent-based urethane sealer that delivers high gloss, superior stain resistance, anti-dusting, and maximum stain and surface protection. Penetrating sealer that intensifies colour with a ‘wet look’ finish. Limited to indoor use. - Natural and oxided cement screeds and floors - Impression paving - Industrial and oxided concrete - Oxided cement screeds - Best for high-traffic industrial and commercial concrete flooring, including garages and warehouses - Commercial and household concrete floors that require high surface protection and stain resistance Stoneshield Cement-Sealer™ is a non-yellowing solvent-based resin sealant with a satin finish, improved stain resistance, and surface protection. Penetrating sealer that intensifies colour with a ‘wet look’ finish. Suitable for indoor and outdoor purposes. - Natural and oxided cement flooring - Impression paving - Cement tiles - Pavers and cobbles - Low-traffic and domestic concrete floors The Stoneshield Wall-Cladding-Sealer™ is a premium grade, natural appearance, solvent-based penetrating water repellent that protects against rain, moisture, airborne filth, pollution, mould, and mildew. Transmits water vapour. The sealer is suitable for both Interior and exterior usage. - Cement bricks and blocks - Fibre cement - Artificial stone Limitations: To ensure that the best results are achieved when using this sealant, take note of the following limitations and precautions: - Do not apply to wet floors or surfaces. - Wash the floor surface, and wait 24 hours before sealing. - Consult the product label for drying timeframes. - Do not moisten sealed flooring for 24 hours. - Depending on the sealer, allow 4-8 hours before foot traffic.

| ||Knowledge Nuggets | Fact Sheets - As pastures become more intensively managed, producers are piping water directly to paddocks. These pipelines are typically small diameter polyethylene pipes that are either buried about 12 inches below ground or placed above ground along fencelines. - Pasture pipelines are only used in the summer and ought to be drained or blown out with an air compressor in the fall. When using above ground lines, strategic breaks in the lines connected with quick couplers, allow the operator to use gravity when draining the lines in the fall. - Pasture pipelines have the distinct advantage of being able to deliver water to strategic sites on the pasture ensuring that little manure is transferred from the place that the plants were grazed. - Pipelines are a cost effective alternative when pressure systems already exist. Typically a pipeline is hooked into an existing stock waterer and the water is transferred to the outer reaches of a pasture. - When providing water in paddocks of 20 acres or less, animals tend not to herd to water. Rather, animals come to drink individually, as they are thirsty. This reduces congestion around the water tank, eliminates trailing and allows for a smaller watering system as compared to where animals need to travel to water. - By using lightweight tanks, operators can move the tanks to fresh paddocks with the animals. By changing the location of the tanks, the pasture around the tanks can grow back without permanent damage to the stand. - Aluminum quick couplers and ball valves work well in connecting sections of pipeline within a pasture layout. Always make connections so that the male ends flow water into the female ends to help keep the lines organized. Always use the same manufacturer's fittings to make maintenance and modifications easier. - Consider the number of livestock and the expected peak water consumption per animal when designing your pipeline system. - To fulfill water requirements the system must either be able to store water for peak use times in a large enough water tank or provide enough flow into the tank when the animals are drinking. - Pump and well capacity, distance to the farthest watering point, vertical lift from the pressure tank to the watering point, operating pressure at the pressure tank, and friction loss in the pipeline and float valve will all affect the capacity to deliver water during the peak times. - Be sure to consider future expansion of the water system for more cattle or longer pipelines when planning the initial layout. - Surface pipelines are prone to damage by livestock, rodents and equipment crossing.

How Fast Can Drones Fly Drones have the capacity to fly at very high speeds and maneuver with incredible precision. Depending on the type of drone, their speed can vary drastically. So how fast can drones fly? Read more as we’ll get into the specifics of this matter in today’s article. What Is The Average Speed Of UAVs Professional racing drones are capable of reaching top speeds near 100 mph, while more commercial or industrial drones often hover around 25-35 mph. On the other hand, the average speed of a consumer drone is dependent on its model and design, but typically they can fly anywhere between 40 and 60 kilometers per hour (kph). Generally speaking, high-performance drones – such as those designed for use in racing or aerial photography – tend to be faster than the average drone. The maximum speed limit for many commercial drones is 40-70kph, but most long-range drones are capable of flying far faster than this. For example, the Barrage Drone from Skydio can reach speeds of up to 98kph. For reference, a helicopter typically has a top speed of around 150kph. However, consumer drones are not designed for high-speed flight and will usually have shorter battery lives when travelling at higher speeds. However, the speed of UAVs depend on many factors. The main factor that affects a drone’s flight speed is the type of motor used. Racing drones typically use brushless electric motors, while commercial and industrial drones typically use slower brushed motors. The speed of a drone also depends on external factors such as wind speed and the drone’s payload. A higher payload makes the drone heavier, resulting in lower average speeds, while wind resistance can also reduce the flight speed of a drone. In addition, some drones have features that allow them to fly at different speeds based on user preference. Additionally, certain environmental factors like wind speed can affect a drone’s flight speed. High winds can greatly reduce the speed of a drone, making them much less maneuverable and potentially dangerous to fly in those conditions. It is also important to note that some countries have laws in place to restrict the speed of drones. This is generally done for safety reasons, so it’s important to be aware of the applicable regulations before flying a drone. Understanding the speed limitations of a drone is key to ensuring that you are operating within safe parameters. Ultimately, the maximum speed of a drone depends largely on its design and purpose. Racing drones can fly incredibly fast and maneuver quickly, while more commercial or industrial drones are designed for slower speeds and greater stability. Operating a drone outside of its designed parameters can result in injury or property damage, so it is important to understand the speed limitations of the particular drone you are using. With proper understanding and consideration of these factors, you can safely enjoy your flying experience. Can You Customize Your Drone So It Can Fly Faster When it comes to customization of drones, there is a wide range of modifications that can be made to make them fly faster. The most impactful changes typically come in the form of increasing the power and capacity of propulsion systems, reducing weight, and adjusting the design of the drone body. First off, you can increase the power and capacity of the propulsion system. By increasing the power, you can make your drone fly faster and more efficiently. You can do this by adding a larger motor or using a better quality motor with higher torque output and efficiency. Additionally, optimizing propellers for speed will help increase the top speed of your drone. The second way to make your drone fly faster is to reduce its weight. Reducing the overall weight of your drone can help make it more responsive and agile in the air, allowing it to reach higher speeds. Things like reducing the size of motors, using lighter materials for structure, and limiting extra components are good ways to start reducing your drone’s weight. Can Drones Fly Faster Than Commercial Airplanes The answer is yes, with some limitations. A traditional commercial airplane is limited by its weight and size, while drones are much smaller and lighter. This gives them a distinct advantage in speed as they do not have to carry the same amount of cargo or passengers that an airplane would. Additionally, modern drone technology offers superior capabilities when it comes to maneuverability and lift-off due to their small size, allowing them to reach speeds much faster than traditional aircraft. In conclusion, drones come in a variety of types and sizes and each one has its own speed capabilities. Racing drones are designed for extreme speeds, while commercial and industrial drones typically fly at slower speeds for greater stability. Understanding the speed limitations of a particular drone is key to ensuring a safe and enjoyable flying experience. With proper consideration of these factors, you can enjoy your flight experience without any risk of injury or property damage.
