In engineering projects, load cells are commonly used to generate electric signals directly linked to the force in which they’re measured. Thus, load cells and pressure sensors are quite resourceful instruments designed to work between -452°F to 450°F.

Essential Drilling Instruments Your Company Absolutely Needs

Oil drilling and extraction involve complex processes and machinery for operations. Process instruments enable rig operators to closely monitor reading to keep their equipment and crew safe. Failure to detect variances can lead to unfortunate events like the BP oil crisis. Here’re essential drilling instruments that your company must have to prevent any accidents.

Everything to Know About Custom Over-Molded Cables

Cables are essential tools to power up equipment and other systems and are prone to extreme weather, harsh environments, and wear and tear. Therefore they need to be built for durability and reliability. Over-molding is a new technology that improves the coating of an existing cable using a mold injecting machine. The blog will explain the over-molding process, its advantages and how you can customize your over-molded cables.

3 Features of a Weight Indicator System

Oil rigging operations require a weight indicator system to monitor the tension on the drill string and the load in the borehole. It allows drillers to ensure that their downhole equipment is safe and mitigate any operational inefficiencies. Here’re three features of a weight indicator system that you should know.

Should You Choose Digital Gauges?

Pressure gauges are significant equipment for a wide range of pump applications. They’re the best indicators of a pump’s health, safety, and functionality when operators struggle to adequately determine whether pumps are doing their job.

A Trash Pump Buying Guide for Beginners

Trash pumps are used to help clean out water bodies that have added debris, dirt, or trash inside of them. Regular water pumps are unable to work with water that has solid items mixed into it and can get clogged.

Why Is Overmoulding Important?

Overmoulding refers to a manufacturing process that involves the moulding of a unique injection seamlessly between objects to transform them into a compact and unified product. It usually injects a rigid, wax-like, plastic-based liquid component and thermoplastic-elastomer to create an adhesive mould between products.

Importance of Torque Measurements

The machine-building industry relies on torque as an essential mechanical measurement instrument. It has a wide range of applications in other sectors too. In fact, many test bench and crane safety equipment manufacturers use these instruments for precise torque measurements.

Different Features of a Deflection Indicator System

Deflection indicators are essential weight-measurement instruments for drilling tasks. They work by measuring the misalignment of main bearings before a drilling job and can be set up near a derrick or on a mast to ensure optimum efficiency. Most drilling rigs have been using multiple deflection indicators because of the effectiveness and ease of use they offer.

All You Need to Know About Overmolded Cable Assemblies

Overmolded cabling assembly is a process that protects the cable composition, allowing it to endure or resist rough and harsh environmental conditions.
