With the amount of rolling motors on the market, there are a lot of variables to consider. However, one of the most common questions is around torque control, setting torque, and when it’s not needed for a job.
Surface finish plays a critical role in determining the performance and longevity of a part. However, it’s important to understand what materials can be burnished and how material impacts the finish that can be achieved.
While traditional finishing methods are effective, in many cases, these processes require multiple operations and set-ups to achieve the desired finish. Burnishing is an effective and efficient alternative that often eliminates the need for secondary processes entirely.
Tube patterns describe how the tube holes are distributed through a tube sheet. Manipulating tube patterns helps increase flow but these modifications can create challenges for tube expansion.
Dunn Heat Exchanger, Inc., a fabrication company located in Texas City, Texas, offers heat exchanger cleaning, decontamination, repair, and fabrication services in the highly competitive shell and tube market.
Elliott Tool Technologies, a USA based tube tool manufacturer, announced the launch of an all new assisted tube rolling system.
Rotors or shafts used in steam and gas turbines, turbo generators and compressors, or any large motor, have to work within set standards for runout to ensure efficient and safe operation. If excessive runout is not eliminated during the manufacturing process, the motor would have to be disassembled and the shaft reworked. This can be a time consuming and costly process and one the motor manufacturer would want to avoid.
Over the past several decades, Elliott Tool Technologies and Monaghan Tooling Group have partnered together to provide quality precision metal finishing tools. We are pleased to announce that Elliott and Monaghan have made the decision to transition sales and marketing to Elliott Tool Technologies, effective January 1, 2024.
Historically, many railroad companies used steam locomotives for transportation. Today, most steam locomotives are reserved for private rails, museums, and other charity organizations. As these systems age, they present several unique maintenance challenges that can arise due to the design and location of these units. Understanding the composition of locomotive boilers, as well as the maintenance needs, can make restoration jobs a little bit easier.
Elliott Tool Technologies, a USA based tube tool manufacturer, presented its annual Gustav Wiedeke Award to The Dow Chemical Company at Heat Exchanger World Americas 2023. This award highlights the importance of customer participation in Elliott’s new product development process and encourages others to collaborate with Elliott to overcome industry challenges.
