Ultrasonic flow meter

 Ultrasonic flow meter

Working principle

Ultrasonic flowmeter is an instrument that measures flow by detecting the effect of fluid flow on ultrasonic beams (or ultrasonic pulses). According to the principle of signal detection, ultrasonic flowmeters can be divided into propagation velocity difference methods (direct time difference method, time difference method, phase difference method and frequency difference method), beam offset method, Doppler method, cross-correlation method, and spatial filtering method. and noise method, etc.


Ultrasonic flowmeters are the same as electromagnetic flowmeters. Because there are no obstructions in the flow channel of the instrument, they are both unobstructed flowmeters. They are a type of flowmeter suitable for solving difficult problems of flow measurement, especially in large-diameter flow measurement. The advantages.


Advantages:

Non-contact measurement is possible;

Measurement without flow obstruction and no pressure loss;

It can measure non-conductive liquids and is a supplement to the electromagnetic flowmeter for non-obstruction measurement.

Disadvantages:

The travel time method can only be used for clean liquids and gases; while the Doppler method can only be used to measure liquids containing a certain amount of suspended particles and bubbles;

The measurement accuracy of Doppler method is not high.


Application

The transit time method is applied to clean, single-phase liquids and gases. Typical applications include tap water, diesel, etc.

In terms of gas applications, we have good experience in the field of high-pressure natural gas;

The Doppler method is suitable for two-phase fluids with a low heterogeneous content. For example: raw sewage, factory effluents, dirty process fluids; generally not suitable for very clean liquids.

Laser Cutting Machine

Laser cutting     is a fabrication process which employs a focused, high-powered   laser beam   to cut material into custom shapes and designs. This process is suitable for a wide range of materials, including metal, plastic, wood, gemstone, glass, and paper, and can produce precise, intricate, and complex parts without the need for custom-designed tooling. There are several different types of laser cutting available, including fusion cutting, oxidation cutting, and scribing. Each laser cutting process can produce parts with precision, accuracy, and high-quality edge finishes, and with generally less material contamination, physical damage, and waste than with other conventional cutting processes, such as mechanical cutting and waterjet cutting. However, while laser cutting demonstrates certain advantages over more conventional cutting processes, some manufacturing applications can be problematic, such as cutting reflective material or material requiring secondary ma...

 Biomechanical engineering is a field that integrates principles of mechanical engineering with biological systems, particularly focusing on the interaction between mechanical factors and living organisms. Here are some key aspects and applications of biomechanical engineering: Biomechanics : This involves the study of the mechanical aspects of biological systems, such as how forces affect cells, tissues, and organs. Biomechanical engineers apply principles from mechanics (statics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, etc.) to understand and analyze biological structures and functions. Medical Devices : Biomechanical engineers design and develop medical devices such as prosthetics, implants, orthotics, and assistive devices. These devices aim to improve mobility, enhance bodily functions, or replace damaged biological structures. Tissue Engineering : This field combines engineering principles with biology to create biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue function. Bi...

Coordinate Measuring Machine Probes

Image
  A  Coordinate Measuring Machine  is defined by the ability of its probe. As with CMMs, there are several types of probes available. There is the contact probe, which measures the workpieces by making contact with them. The non-contact probe that employs lasers or machine vision probes which scan with optical sensors. Contact probes are a more accurate way of measuring. However, the laser or machine vision probes are far quicker to use, while still holding a high degree of accuracy. There are also multi-sensor probes which combine both touch and optical scanning, giving the benefit of both types in one probe. Coordinate Measuring Machines: Contact Probes The two most common contact probes are Touch Trigger Probes and Analog Scanning Probes. Touch Trigger Probes: A touch trigger probe has a stylus that is attached to a bearing plate. This is then connected to pressure sensors inside the housing of the probe. Each time the probe makes contact with the workpiece, it generat...
