I am quite familiar with industrial and manufacturing terms since I used to have courses in high school about industrial stuff. Further, when I was in college I had a subject on Carpentry (being a civil engineering student) and, to tell you honestly, it was one of the most interesting subjects I had. Our group produced one of the best house miniatures of the batch.

Of course I did all the wood sawing and smoothing! I even have a souvenir for that - a scar on my index finger. LOL.

Ok enough of that story.

Let's have a little lesson about industrial and manufacturing terms. Identify the following products or items. If you manage to identify all, I will send you a brand new valve. Or maybe a saw.

Ready?

1. Consist of a rod or piston that compresses into a cylinder filled with compressed gas, usually nitrogen.

2. A process in which a metal alloy sheet is used as the stock which is stamped on a press using dies & punches or drawn into shapes on hydraulic deep drawing machines.

3. Used to transfer wet or dry materials such as water, chemicals, acids, or grains from one place to another.

4. Electrical devices that convert a high voltage into a smaller voltage, or vice-versa.

5. Available in hundreds of stock sizes with custom inserts to protect sensitive instruments. Available with wheels, extendable handles, special RFI/EMI shielding, air tight and water tight construction, etc.

6. Referring to an object, either rubber, metal, or plastic, that prevents leakage.

7. Used in the process industry. Compressor based; air-cooled and water-cooled are available.

8. AKA gear heads or gear boxes, used to decrease rotating speed in printing presses, automation equipment, compressors, conveyors, pumps, generators and robotic applications.

9. Controls the volume of flow & pressure of fluids or gases by closing, opening, or partially opening a passage through which the material passes regulates this flow.

10. One-way directional valves.

11. Power-actuated devices operating in a process system as a critical component of a control loop, to alter the fluid flow rate.

12. Has a round closure element & round seat that permits a tight shut off because of the uniform seal between the element and the seat.

Answers:
1. Gas springs
2. Metal stamping
3. Pumps
4. Transformers
5. Cases
6. Seals
7. Chillers
8. Speed reducers/gear reducers
9. Valves
10. Check valves
11. Control valves
12. Ball valves

Visit the online industrial directory of industrial, manufacturing, and distributing businesses, products, and services, for more terms.
