    Anyone knows how music box drums are made?

    Thanks for your reply IRstuff. Can you give me the link to those sites you mentioned? As for 3D printing, that's indeed an interesting idea. Do you thing the material is strong enough though? (I'm not familiar with the material used) Will the pins withstand the stress of the strokes in the...

    Anyone knows how music box drums are made?

    Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows how music box drums are made. From what I've seen in a video, one type is basically a metal sheet rolled into a hollow cylinder. Small holes are drilled on the cylinder. Then, wire is inserted into each hole and is trimmed. The cylinder is then...

    Level Transmitter Displacer Type

    as i read articles and data sheet of masoneilan level transmitter displacer type i did understand that for interface application the displacer must always immersed in fluid with lower density. i need to know how can i sure that this will happened . and if it doesn't happen what would be wrong...

    Some questions regarding tube skin thermocouples...

    Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone could help me with the following questions regarding pad type tube skin TCs: - If I'm not mistaken, the material of pad and MI cable sheath for tube skin thermocouples must be the same, otherwise the couple might introduce an unwanted voltage in the...

    2in. Blind flange API 6bx of rating 10k

    Thanks for the info. I do believe our customer also meant 2-1/16. My problem is that the table for blind flanges in API 6A (Table 46 in 19th edition) starts from size 5-1/8 for the pressure rating I require. For unlisted sizes, the table refers me to another table (44, which is for blind and...

    2in. Blind flange API 6bx of rating 10k

    Hi everyone. I'm a bit confused about an item our customer has required from us in a project. The item is a blind 2 inch API flange of 10K rating (I assume it should be a 6BX flange, right?). The problem is that the nominal size of blind 6BX flanges in API 6A standard starts from 5...

    Level Measurement Standards

    Hi everyone. I was wondering if there are any standards (preferably ASME) about level measurement and control techniques (switches, gauges, transmitters, etc.) like there are for flow and pressure measurement. I did a quick search on the web but couldn't find anything useful. Thanks a lot.

    Hardness reduction of stellite 6 on Incoloy 800

    Thank you so much for your answer. We too came to the conclusion that it must be a dilution problem. What we can't figure out is why the hardness hasn't been reduced uniformly throughout the part. The only possibility I can think of is that the welders grew careless for some reason as they...

    Hardness reduction of stellite 6 on Incoloy 800

    Hi everyone, We're having a problem with an incoloy 800 part overlaid with stellite 6. The part is a thermowell shaped roughly like a drilled partial cone with large diameter of 28mm, small diameter of 20mm, height of 90mm and drill diameter of 10 mm. The overlay thickness is 2mm and has been...

    Welded 316L part, NACE MR0175 Compliancy

    Thank you so much for your answer SJones. So, if the hardness test of the sample(s) turn out to be OK, there will be NO need for solution annealing the whole part again, right?
