TIP OF THE MONTH:
 The Vortex Tube

The Vortex Tube, is a mechanical device that separates a compressed gas into hot and cold streams. The hot gas can reach temperatures of 200 �C (392 degrees F) while the cold air can go down to -50 �C. (-58 degrees F)

The votex tube is also referred to as the Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube.  Why you may ask? 

The vortex tube was invented In 1931 by a French physicist named Georges J. Ranque. The patent and idea was abandoned for several years until 1947, when a German engineer Rudolf Hilsch modifed the design of the tube.

 

It seems that until today, there is no single theory that explains the radial temperature separation.

 

Who needs the Vortex tube?

 

They are commonly used for inexpensive spot cooling, when compressed air is available.

Applications:

  • Milling, drilling, turning and other metalworking operations
  • Machining of plastics, composites, wood & other materials
  • Bearing replacement
  • Surface grinding, drill & tool sharpening
  • Cooling of molds & molded pieces
  • Cooling of hot metal parts
  • CNC Routers, blades & band saws
  • Spot cooling of parts & assemblies
  • Industrial sewing & textiles
  • Setting hot melts & adhesives
  • Thermal testing of sensors
  • Cooling welds & solders

How Do You Measure the Diameter of an Eight Foot Cylinder In A Low Light Environment or In A Corrosive Environment?
 

You would use a Pi Tape designed for special applications.

You use Precision Vernier Periphery Tapes for Direct Diameter Readings
Special Diameter Tapes
FOR LOW LIGHT ENVIRONMENTS, WE OFFER TWO EZ-READ STYLES:
  • White EZ-read: dark lines with white background (Best for small diameters. Not for use with chemicals)
  • Blue EZ-read: white lines with dark blue background (Best for large diameters. More fragile than standard tapes. Not for use with chemicals)
STAINLESS STEEL TAPES:
  • Manufactured using 4210 ground stainless steel strip.
  • The manufacturing process is the same as for standard tapes.
  • Stainless steel tapes are recommended for use in any corrosive atmosphere where rusting could be a problem
  • They are not recommended for diameters above 108 inch / 2700 mm due to the camber which is inherent in long stainless steel strip.
Specialty Items
SPECIAL DESIGN TAPES CAN BE MADE TO SUIT YOUR REQUIREMENTS.*
  • Tension Scales available for use with Pi Tape� gages
  • Extra Graduations
  • Longer tapes (Reels available for many sizes)
  • Wider or Narrower tapes

 Joke of the Month   

 

What Not To Name Your Dog

 

Everybody who has a dog calls him "Rover" or "Spot".

 

I called mine "Sex". Now Sex has become very embarrassing to me. When I went to the Licence Office to renew his dog license, I told the clerk I would like to have a license for Sex. He told me "I would like to have one too!"

 

When I got married and went on my honeymoon, I took the dog with us. I told the hotel clerk I wanted a room for my wife and me, along with a special room for Sex. He said that every room in the place was for Sex. I said "You don't understand, Sex keeps me awake at night." The clerk said lucky you!"

 

One day I entered Sex in a contest, but before the competition, he ran away. Another contestant asked me why I was just standing there. I told him that I planned to have Sex in the contest. He told me that I should have sold tickets on my own. "No, No, you do not understand, I had hoped to have Sex on TV." He called me an exhibitionist.

 

When my wife and I separated, we went to court to fight for custody of the dog. I said, "I had Sex before I was married." The judge said "big deal - me too."

 

Last night Sex ran off again. I spent hours looking around for him. A policeman came to me and asked me, "What are you doing in this alley at 4 o'clock in the morning?" I told him I was looking for Sex." My case comes up on Friday!
