Heat Treatment is the heating and cooling of metals to change their physical and mechanical properties without letting it change its shape.
Heat Treatment could be said to be a method for strengthening materials but could also be used to alter some mechanic....
In steel industry, the role of fan and blower is very important. These equipment plays vital role in conveying the dust, fluids etc. through pipes. Hence understanding the basic function, types, working principle as well as the operation and maintenance of the same b....
Bearings have played a pivotal role in the nascent Industrial Revolution, allowing the new industrial machinery to operate efficiently. The term “Bearing” is derived from the verb “to bear”, a bearing being a machine element that allows one part to bear (i.....
Water Treatment is used to optimize most water based industrial processes such as heating, cooling, processing, cleaning, and rinsing so that operating costs and risks are reduced. Poor water treatment lets water interact with the surface of pipes and vessels which c....
A Measuring Instrument is a device for measuring a physical quantity. In the physical sciences, quality assurance, and engineering, measurement is the activity of obtaining and comparing physical quantities of real world objects and events. Established standard objec....
The module on Limit Fit & Tolerance will help you understand its importance, concept and impact on mass production and maintenance. In the early days, majority of the components were matted together, their dimensions being adjusted until the required type of fit was ....
Centrifugal Pumps are the most popular and commonly used pump for the transfer of fluids. In simple words, it is a pump that uses a rotating impeller to move water or other fluids by using centrifugal force. These are the undisputed pump choice especially for deliver....
Performance of any moving machines largely depend on accuracy of installation and erection. Levelling and alignment are the basic maintenance practices carried out during the commissioning of any machineries which ensures the reliability. With this e-learning module ....
A valve is a device or natural object that regulates, directs or controls the flow of a fluid (gases, liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries) by opening, closing, or partially obstructing various passageways. Valves are technically fittings, but are usually discussed....
A shaft coupling is a mechanical component that connects the drive shaft and driven shaft of a motor, pump etc., to transmit power. Shaft couplings introduce mechanical flexibility, providing tolerance for shaft misalignment. As a result, this coupling flexibility ca....
