Welding Safety Tips
Why Welding Safety Is So Important As welding presents many potential hazards, it’s crucial for welders to practice safety by taking the following steps: • Analyzing surroundings • Using tools and equipment in the way they are intended • Following all manufacturer guidelines • Ensuring others are not in harm’s way while working Accidents happen, but many injuries […]
Types of Welding and Their Uses
Welding is a fabrication process where two or more parts are fused together by the use of heat, pressure, or both, forming a join as the parts cool. Welding is usually used on metals and thermoplastics but can also be used on wood. Here we will discuss some of the most common welding techniques used in the […]
Standard Welding Tools For Beginners
Welding Gloves Gloves are pretty self-explanatory. Welding gloves consist of layers of robust fabrics and insulation, preventing injuries from heat and stray sparks. Welding gloves are easy to find anywhere you buy gloves, but they are essential to any form of welding you might do. There are usually 2 types you need to be aware […]
Benefits of Microscopic TIG Welding
What is Microscopic TIG Welding? Microscopic TIG welding, also known as GTAW, uses low amperage for precise welds. The reduced heat output and machine control reduce the risk of warping; ensuring a repeatable process. The smallest weld sizes can be completed with exact precision using microscopic TIG welding. Microscopic TIG welding is often a small, […]
Basics of Injection Molding Tools
If you want to understand how an injection mold works, first you have to learn the ins and outs of the tool. This is a quick guide for those who want the basics of injection molding tools. The most common injection mold is a two-plate tool. There are other types of injection molds as well. […]
Injection Molding Troubleshooting Tips
There’s a lot of room for expensive errors when it comes to injection molding. Quality issues in injection-molded products can range from minor surface defects to more serious problems that can affect the safety, performance, and function of the product. Let’s look at the most common quality defects related to injection molding, what causes them, […]
Benefits of Injection Molding
What is Injection Moulding? Injection molding is a method to obtain molded products by injecting plastic materials molten by heat into a mold, and then cooling and solidifying them. The method is suitable for the mass production of products with complicated shapes and takes a large part in the area of plastic processing. With the […]
A Look into the Injection Molding Process:
Nu-Tech’s manufacturing plant is well-equipped to handle custom molding projects with ease. The particular process shown in this video takes around 35 seconds for each batch of parts. The material makes its way into the hot barrel, and the material transforms into a hot liquid. This liquid is then shot into the mold. The particular […]
Benefits of High Ratio Heat Shrink
Heat shrink tubing is classified by the material it is made from the inside diameter of the un-shrunk tube and the shrink ratio. The shrink ratio is the size of the original tubing in relation to its shrunken final form. The more popular ratios are: 2:1 – The tube will become half of its original […]
How Heat Shrink Helps Your Solar Panels
There’s no doubt that solar panels are the key to generating clean, renewable energy. There are zero emissions from the process of creating power with solar panel systems. However, like all-electric systems, solar panels will need wiring to make them work. Exposed to the harsh conditions of the outside world, you’ll need to protect your […]
