If you have powder-coated items in your yard, such as lawn furniture or fencing, you know that they're almost maintenance-free. However, that doesn't mean that they're completely maintenance-free. In fact, your powder-coated items will need plenty of maintenance, especially during the winter. Here are three steps you need to take to protect your powder-coated finish this winter.
Watch the Water Exposure
Water and sun exposure can wreak havoc on powder-coated finishes.
Industrial Manufacturing
- When hydraulic pumps start having a lot of problems, many people choose to buy new ones to replace them. Having your hydraulic pump rebuilt might be the better choice to make in this situation, though.

- If you work in a fabrication shop at your factory, you may find yourself having to use stainless steel for your next project. However, before you start working with the metal, make sure you avoid the following mistakes that could make working with the steel harder, as well as adversely affecting the finished product. Neglecting to Clean the Surface If you are in a hurry, you may decide to forego the important step of cleaning the surface of the stainless steel.
- One of the challenges of control system design is that there are often situations where there is no right or wrong answer. Often, control systems operate on a logic of "true" and "false." Usually, 0 = false and 1 = true. However, there may be situations where the answer is somewhere between 0 and 1, which is where fuzzy logic comes into play. An Example of a Fuzzy Logic System
- Wire mesh, which can be used for fencing material or for window screens, can also be used for industrial purposes (e.g., sifting fine particulates, shaking dirt loose from vegetables, etc.). Before you buy multiple rolls of mesh, however, you should know that there are three ways in which wire mesh is made. You should also know why this is important. Extruded and "Stamped" Mesh can be poured into a mold and extruded into a flat sheet.
