Accommodation: any modification or adjustment to a work environment that enables an operator to perform essential job functions. Administrative controls: procedures and methods, set up by the employer, that significantly
The laser energy necessary for welding can be presented to parts in the form of either a spot or a line. Spot or contour welding refers to the use of a circular spot of laser energy to traverse a preprogrammed contour path and create a weld.
Active alignment: the process of coupling a light source, such as a diode laser, with the input end of an optical fiber to determine the optimal position of the component
Ultrasonic welders are available in several different frequencies, such as 15, 20 and 40 kilohertz, and a variety of power supplies, such as 1,000, 1,500, 2,000, 3,000 and 4,000 watts. It’s important to select the optimal frequency and power for your application.
Amplitude: the peak-to-peak excursion of the face of a horn or booster. Booster: a mechanical transformer used to increase or decrease the amplitude of the horn. Far field weld: refers
Today's power tool batteries owe their basic design and operating characteristics to a pair of 18th century Italian engineers and a trio of 19th century French scientists.
