Extension springs are stainless steel springs that have two ends to them and attach to another component. The extension spring performs the task of maintaining additional energy and adjustable tension by adding resistance to a heavier force. This resistance controls constant energy in the spring, forcing the spring to pull back after being forced apart. […]

PET, or polyethylene terephthalate accounts for around 70% of the total number of soft drink bottles manufactured around the world, comfortably making it the most popular material choice, ahead of aluminum and glass. In an industry where there’s an abundance of compressor variations in use, from standard models to customized or bespoke systems, there are […]

Compressors are great tools which can be used for a variety of tasks around the home or at work. But making sure a compressor valve is in perfect working order can be a challenge. Through regular maintenance, compressors can work for years without any frustrating breakdowns. Knowing how to look after a compressor valve and […]

Evaluating the functionality of compressor valves is an important task which needs to be undertaken to ensure all of the components are both fit for purpose and operationally sound. But what factors need to be gauged, and when should this process be performed?   When to Evaluate Compressor Valves There are three main periods in a mechanical systems […]

With a huge recent investment in natural gas reclamation, America has seen a recent upsurge in the amount of natural gas being produced. In 2009 America became the largest producer of dry natural gas in the world. As of the end of 2016, figures show that almost 25% of the world’s gas is being produced […]

What is a Damper Plate? A damper plate is a critical part of any machine. They are designed to absorb noise and vibration keeping your unit working perfectly, while also reducing nuisance and pollution. However, the noise-cancelling ability of a damper plate can be decreased over time, as they wear down and become less effective. […]

Whilst they’re easy to manufacture and also relatively cheap to produce, tension springs can generally be found to possess a high level of reliability. Within industrial systems, these small components take on a more critical function, as the failure of any part of the system will result in a disruption to productivity. Often required to […]

When fluids move through a system, they will flow naturally when unimpeded. The fluid will run through any piping or attached components at a rate based on the amount of internal pressure and the natural inclination to achieve balance. However, allowing materials to flow at that rate isn’t always ideal for certain operations, and that’s […]

Springs provide a mechanism for storing energy. Most springs are based on a wound coil, which takes the form of a spiral. When force is applied to the spring, its shape can either be extended or compressed. Once released, the spring generally returns to its original shape unless the amount of force exerted exceeds the […]
