Speed Hump and Wheel Stopper

Speed Hump and Wheel Stopper

Speed humps are speed breakers. It is used to reduce the speed of vehicles. It can be placed permanently as well as temporarily. In order to improve safety conditions some traffic calming devices are being used. These devices use vertical deflection to slow motor-vehicle traffic.

Speed Hump one of the families of these traffic calming devices. Generally, they are traffic thresholds. It is a global device. Around the globe, everywhere, vertical deflection devices are using to control the speed of vehicles as a safety concern. Mostly it is used to enforce the speed limit under 40 Km per hour or lower.

Not only to reduce the speed of the vehicles, but also speed humps are used to protect the cables passing through the traffic areas. As we know lots of cables are running through the underground, sometimes beneath our roads. But if we need to run a cable through the road after finished road works, the better option is not digging, it is cable protector. It will act as a speed hump.

Wheel Stopper

Wheel Stopper is also one of the members of the above family. It is also used for safety purposes. Wheel stoppers are also known as wheel blockers or wheel chock. But the main difference between a speed hump and wheel stopper is, speed humps are used for running vehicles, while wheel stoppers are used for the parked vehicles only.

Once we parked our vehicle in a slop area, we are required for a wheel stopper to make sure the vehicle will not move without our interruption. Because it is part of safety. Once the vehicle is moved without driver it will make high-level injuries.

Wheel stoppers are used for aircraft also. Once it is parked to avoid unnecessary movements, wheel stoppers are used to block the wheels. If we are loading or unloading a truck, we can understand the importance of wheel stoppers.

Rope Access and Rope

Rope Access and Rope

The rope access system is started in the early 1980s, The technique is originally developed by Cavers. And it is adopted as a rope access system as we know it today. Cavers rope system is using only one rope. But in rope access system we added one more additional rope for working at height.

In the rope access system, this secondary rope is added as safety equipment. One rope is used to hang and hold the person who is using the rope access method, while the other rope is used to protect the person. If something happened unexpectedly, this second rope can secure the person.

Unexpected falls and injuries were common while working at the height. It makes more difficulties to get persons for this job. Even for the employer also, it was difficult. But the rope access system made it is an easy and safe job. Employees were get attracted to this system because the risk of the job becomes less.

Specially designed rope access equipment is used for rope access technique to perform each job very well without any damages and losses. For example, ropes are available as static rope, semi-static rope, and dynamic rope. Each job characteristics are different. Before choosing it, we have to consider our application.

If it is a static rope, there will be no changes in the length or width of the rope after each work. And, by hanging weights, it will not expand, therefore the chances to break the rope are high. If it is a dynamic rope, it is highly elastic. It can expand its length more by hanging the weight.

Therefore we are using semi-static rope for rope access system normally. Because it has a medium level expansion capability. While hanging the weight, it will expand and after removing the weight it will contrast. Therefore semi-static ropes are the most suitable rope for rope access systems. 

Ferrule Printer and Tubes

Ferrule Printer and Tubes

As we know there are different brands of cable marking ferrule tube or ferrule printers are available in the market. We have to make a study before choosing one for our use. Consider a few essential features of the various tube printers available in the market to make a comparison. Because it will help you to choose the exact one for your application.

All ferrule printers are used to print on the cable or wires as an identification method, however, we have to check the quality of it. Before taking any decision on which the printer is most suitable for you, consider all your requirements.

I hope you know that by using ferrule printers we are not directly printing on the cables or wires. We are using ferrule tubes to print on it. Cable and wires are inserting into the ferrule tube and transferring the tube through the printer to print above the tube.

Our decision should be based on our requirements only to make a proper result. When thinking about ferrule printers, there are two distinct categories: lower-end models and higher-end models. One way to think about this is like deciding whether to purchase a Mac-book Air or Mac-book Pro.

If you simply wish to possess a machine that is able to perform the basic computer functions, go for Mac-book Air. If you are interested to make use of more advanced and computer-intensive software such as photo editing software or code on the computer, you would be well-advised to take up the Mac-book Pro. Similarly, in ferrule printers, there are different products.

Each ferrule printers or ferrule tubes are having their own features and pros and cons. However, for the industrial uses, the most selling ferrule printer are the brands of CANON and LETATWIN. ferrule tubes are available in different colors, sizes, lengths... etc to suit your cables and wires.

silica Gel and Alumina

Silica Gel and Alumina

As we know activated alumina is used in the purification process of water. It can be used in the initial stage as well as in the final stage. We have to make sure to remove all the contaminated particles from activated alumina before using it as a filter medium for the water purification process.

Let's see the initialization and regeneration procedures. Once a filter has been loaded with virgin activated alumina, the medium is back-washed to remove the fine particles generated by the handling of the material and subsequently chemically treated to activate the adsorption sites and to remove the impurities. The modalities of this treatment are similar to those for regeneration.

The regeneration of activated alumina filters is done in three stages: Treatment with sodium hydroxide to remove fluoride ions and replace them with hydroxide ions; Treatment with an acid to remove residual sodium hydroxide and activate the medium; Rinsing with drinking or demineralized water and conditioning with the natural mineral water so that the filter has no impact on the overall mineral content of the treated water.

Silica Gel

Silica gel is the most used desiccant all over the world. It is used for absorbing moisture from the atmosphere or surroundings of an enclosed area. It can be used to protect packaged food items for a long time by removing moisture presence. There is a lot of industrial uses for silica gel.

In industries, some of the machines required moisture absence to work properly. Such companies or organizations will use silica gel breathers to avoid moisture from it. In these breathers, they are using either orange silica gel or blue silica gel as the desiccant.

There's no expiration date for the silica gel. The gel packets can be dehydrated again once it reached to maximum absorption level. If a silica gel packet left out in the open area will immediately start taking up water vapor from the surroundings because it can absorb moisture from any environment condition.

Each and every product from Band-IT is providing the best quality. They are always keeping their standards and Boeing and Airbus are satisfied in it.

Cable Ties

Cable ties are used to hold the cables or similar products together by avoiding movements. We all may be familiar with cable ties, because it is a common component available on all the markets, even in the supermarkets also. Actually, in some supermarkets, they are used plastic cable ties to tie the mouth of the covers for safety.

Cable ties are available in different colors and in different sizes. Different materials also used to manufacture cable ties. Colored cable ties are mostly plastic ties or nylon ties. They are very cheap and used for general purposes. For different purposes, different types of cable ties are available now.

But for some complicated issues or for big level applications, mainly stainless steel cable ties are used. Aluminum, stainless steel, metals... etc are used as the base material to make cable ties. To hold small wires of computers, land phones or wifi routers nylon cable ties are enough. But to hold big ducts or giant pipes, nylon ties can't be used. We need specific stainless steel or metallic cable ties.

Band-IT provided solutions to most of all the areas of the world. One of the main things is, once they used Band-IT products, then they will not go behind any other substitutes. because Band-IT is offering the best quality. They will keep their standards on every point of each product.

Band-IT Fasteners

Band-IT fasteners are using by two major aircraft manufactures, Boeing and Airbus. Their specialty is, they will take every precaution steps to make sure the aircraft and its components are safe and protected. They will not compromise the quality of each component that they are supplying to military and commercial applications.

Boeing and Airbus are ensuring that electromagnetic interference will not interfere with the operations and performance of the airplane and other components. To do that, they included Band-IT tie-dex bands. Because it can terminate the connections and protect the cables from electromagnetic interference. Through this, they can assure the safety of the person and components. So it will not affect the performance of the airplane.

Band-IT tie-dex provided the best solution for the aircraft industry. In the new technology, the traditional hydro-mechanical controls are replaced by Fly-by-wire systems. Therefore, Passengers can be entertained by TV screens and there are power ports to charge your mobile phones and also, you can use the onboard WiFi system continuously.

Pilot or control tower communications can be disrupted by the electromagnetic interference generated by all these or other electronic devices. Also, these have been suspected of erratic flight deck indications. Band-IT fasteners were using already in the aircraft industries.

Today’s digital control systems need to be designed in anticipation of EMI sources from the outside as well. Solar flares, radar, and lightning – don’t be alarmed, but an airplane is struck by lightning once each year, on average – threaten system performance and jeopardize safety. Maybe Band-IT fasteners can solve it. If not, they can provide a better solution definitely. And, they did it! But how?

Lanyards and rope access

Lanyards and Rope Access

Generally, a lanyard is a strap to carry something such as keys, identity cards... etc. Lanyards are being used from the earlier time. It has many advantages. It can be any type of cord or strap. Any material can be used as a lanyard such as metals, cotton, thread, paper wire or anything.

In the French military, lanyards were used to connect small equipment that is important for their activities. They used lanyards to connect it because of the easiness to use it. They connected their pistols, swords, etc. Because those weapons were important in their work. At any time they need to use it. Therefore it is not possible to put it in a cover or fold it in a box.

By using lanyards it was easy to take out and to use. And another important use of lanyards was to carry their whistle or to connect the whistle to their uniform semi-permanently. It helped secure against fall and it can be dropped without being lost. It is easy to protect something by using a lanyard.

Rope Access

Did you hear about rope access? What is the rope access system and why it is mentioned here along with the lanyard section? What is the relation between rope access systems and lanyards? Ok, let's see the answers for these questions and the relation between rope access and lanyards.

The rope access system is a form of work positioning, to access difficult to reach locations. Because some works need extra activities to reach every corner and edges. For example, It is not easy to reach to all the edges and corners of the tall buildings to clean their window by using scaffoldings. Such situations required rope access.

The relation between rope access and lanyards is, it is an important part of rope access. The equipment kit used for rope access contains lanyards. In rope access system lanyards are used to connect to the main attachment points of the harness.

Band IT clamping solution

Band-IT Clamping Solution

Band-IT's products are providing the best quality and standard. They are one of the top branded organization in the world. There is no compromisation for the quality of the products they offered. However, sometimes, some issues are arising from the client-side. Let's see what are these issues.

Band-IT offers highly qualified fasteners and clamping solutions. However, the price is high for some of the clients.  But that is the one and the only issue for them also. They are highly satisfied with the products, but they are worried about the cost. Because sometimes they have to purchase the item inside from their budgets.

Flexibility pays off for every stakeholder

Band-IT is providing the clamping solution to Epsindo Jaya Pratama. It is an Indonesian company. They are producing oil well submersible pumps. They were a regular customer of Band-IT. But after some time, as a part of cost reduction, they stopped business with Band-IT. They started to purchase the same products made in China.

They could reduce the cost, however, they were not satisfied with the quality. They realized that Band-IT is not getting the price for their product, it is for their quality. The project manager Ng of Band-IT explained that the only issue EJP had with BAND-IT was cost. But they were happy and satisfied with the quality.

However, they realized that the product they purchased from China was not much good and they restarted the business with Band-IT. They approached Band-IT as a partnership base. Mr. Ng negotiated the unit price depends on the number of clamps ordered. Now EJP is using precut Band fast clamps made of stainless steel (304).

Band-IT clamping solutions are secured with seals, clips, ear-lokt buckles or centerpunch clips to meet all the requirements. It can provide all types of solutions to your needs. Therefore, price is not the issue some times.

Rope Access and Carabiner

Rope Access and Carabiner

A Carabiner is a metal-enclosed structure or loop, that can be open on one side. This part is called the gate of the carabiner. The other side will be closed forever. The word carabiner comes from the German word "Karabinerhaken". Its meaning is "hook for a carbine". Normally carabiners are very strong.

Carabiners are used as a part of rope access equipment. Generally, climbing carabiners are very strong. Because these carabiners need to lift heavyweight. Sometimes the weight of the person who is doing climbing activities. However, for each application, this device is manufactured in different quality.

Rope access equipment consists of different equipment used for climbing or other adventurous activities. The carabiner is one of the main parts of it. It is actually a hook or connector which is used to connect two or more other devices. It can be locked or unlocked easily.

To use by a rope access technician, carabiners made as user-friendly. Because while someone is on the rope access activity it is not easy to operate mechanical devices. Therefore each device of the rope access equipment made easy to use but very strong to stay for a long time. All the equipment related to rope access will be included in a rope access equipment kit.

Carabiners are certified for climbing by CE and/or the UIAA.  It is very strong and it will not break when used as intended. A real climbing fall incident will have a force of 5kN at the maximum. But most of the carabiners on rope access or climbing activities are certified for 20kN minimum. They are mentioning it in their optimal direction of use.

A carabiner is available in different forms and shapes, but it's usually a metal oval, with a spring-loaded clip that stays closed unless it's pushed open. Say the word carabiner with an emphasis on the bin syllable, but pronounce it like a bean.

Embossing Works UAE: FAS Arabia 042343772

Embossing Works UAE: FAS Arabia

Embossing works are a part of the artwork. We can emboss letters and numbers on metals. Carving or stamping a design or pattern on a hard surface or object is known as embossing. It projects or stands out in relief. In an earlier time, machines were not available. But embossing was popular and it was done by the art workers.

To do embossing works, there are different types of machines available on the market. Depends on the type of work behavior we can choose the machines required for our embossing works. It can be used for identification purposes. The metal can be varied as per our interest such as stainless steel, brass, aluminum... etc. 

Industrial people are approaching embossing works to get mostly identification tags. they are choosing stainless steel tags to emboss or deboss. Debossing is the process of creating recessed relief images and designs on a surface such as paper and other materials. If the pattern is raised against the background, then it is embossing. the debossed pattern is sunken into the surface of the material.

Another method is imprinting. Tag imprinter is a popular tool. Imprinting means stamping or marking something on a surface. Imprinting and embossing are not the same. As same as embossing, by using imprinter tools also we can do patterns or designs.

As I mentioned before Tag imprinter is popular between industrial people. But tag imprinter and tag embossing we can see commonly on Airports. Because the airport customer service executives are used to pin their name tag on their dresses to assist the people easily. The customers can get their name without asking.

They are used to print their name and designation on the tags or metal plates by using the Tag imprinter tool. Because it will be last for a long time. The cost is less and the reliability is high. Therefore it can be used for years and years.

Cable ID Printer UAE

Cable ID Printer UAE

Ferrule Printing Machines are a common device to print on the cables. But as you think it will not print directly on the cables or wires. It will be print on some tubes like ferrule tubes. These tubes are necessary parts of the ferrule printing machine. Print on the cables is one of the best methods for identification.

As we said before, ferrule printing machines are used as one of the identification methods of cables and wires. There are two major companies offering the best ferrule printing machines such as CANON and LETATWIN. Both the companies are manufacturing their products in JAPAN.

Ferrules you will get along with the ferrule printing machine. And once it is completely used, you can purchase only the ferrules. But you should use the recommended ferrule tubes along with these machines to get an extended life span to your printers.

Cable ID printers is another name of Ferrule printing machines. Beauce cable id printer is a device used to make an identification system to the cables. There are some other methods to print on cables as an identification system such as marking on the cables by using CD markers or marking pens, inserting small lettered tube pieces to the cables., it can be custom or ready-made.

But however, the result will not be perfect as the result by using a cable ID printer. Therefore, most of the industrial people are using cable ID printers as the best identification system for the cables. Also, the printers are cost-effective. From small scale businesses to large scale organizations can use this system.

Cable ID printers can afford by any business levels and later if you need ferrule tubes, that is also available in cheap price. But you should choose the suitable one. I mean at first, you have to consider the size of the cable to purchase ferrule tubes. Because it should be fit for the cables or wires.

Embossing Machine and Imprinter Tool

Embossing-Machine & Imprinter Tool

Here we can discuss some of the best embossing machines. There are a lot of types of embossing machines available on the market. We have to select the ideal one for our applications. Let's see one type of embossing machines. It is the "Circuit cuttle bug embossing machine".

Each and every embossing machines are having different advantages and disadvantages. If we are looking onto the circuit cuttle bug embossing machine, It comes with two metal dies and an A2 embossing folder. If you buy this product you will also get one 6x8 b, 6x8 a plate and a rubber embossing mat. It has a collapsible handle and compact fold-n-store profile.

Cutting and embossing through materials such as acetate ribbon, tissue paper, thin leather, and foils has never been easier thanks to the versatile Cricut Cuttlebug Die Cutting and Embossing Machine. It is working with embossing folders and other leading cutting dies. But it has its downfalls just like any other model.

Imprinter Tool

Tag Imprinter is different from tag embossing. Maybe you are familiar with the credit card imprinter. A credit card imprinter is a non-electronic device. It can operate manually, which makes an imprint (hence the name) of the face of your credit card and transfers it onto a double receipt.

A credit card imprinter, sometimes affectionately called a “knuckle buster” because of its difficulty to physically manipulate, is a device that makes a carbon copy imprint of a customer's credit card.

However, Tag imprinter is different from this one. It is a type of art on stainless steel tags. You can make designs or letters to make them different. As a part of the identification system, tag imprinters are using commonly. Because once we did it, it will be last for a long time. Therefore it can be used as a low-cost identification system.

Embossing and Engraving

Embossing and Engraving

Embossing another type of printing on materials. Actually, it is entirely different from printing. Because for printing we are using ink or some other objects to mark on the materials. But for embossing the material should be harder and also the method is different.

Embossing machines are available as two types like manual and digital embossing machines. For various themes, they are providing creative embossing folders, serving extra-special occasions or keeping it plain with geometric designs. Once you selected your folders, you will required materials to emboss. Embossing allows you to make creative DIY projects, therefore it is popular in paper crafting.

There are different types of embossing machines on the market. Embossing machines will give you a comfort solution for your requirements. However, choosing the best one is not that easy. Because as per your requirements, based on the performance inside your budget, only you can purchase the item.

Another method is metal engraving. Metal engraving also can be used for either industrial works or for artworks. Metal engraving tools are available in different types. Big machines to small hand tools are available in this section.

Sometimes you have seen small metal name tags on the chest of some executives, especially at the airport, we can see this regularly. The advantage of these name tags is it will not be get damaged easily. It will last for a long time. To print this, we can use either tag embossing machines or metal engraving tools. This is just one of the examples of these machines.

One of the best industry for engraving tool is Jewelry. The technicians who are doing designing on the ornaments are using small hand metal engraving tools. It is not much easy to use. Sometimes the fingers of the technicians will be got injuries from this work. However, to design on Silver and Gold, nowadays hand metal engraving tools are using commonly.
