Flame Arrestor
A flame arrester (also spelled arrestor), deflagration arrester, or flame trap are safety devices fitted to openings of enclosures or to pipe work, and are intended to allow flow but prevent flame transmission fuel combustion by extinguishing the flame. Usage and applications The uses of a flame arrester include: *Stopping the spread of an open fire *Limiting the spread of an already occurred explosion *Preventing potentially explosive mixtures from igniting *Confining fire within a controlled location *Stopping the propagation of a flame traveling at subsonic velocities Some common objects that have flame arresters are: * Fuel storage tank vents * Fuel gas pipelines * Safety storage cabinets for paint, aerosol cans, and other flammable mixtures * The exhaust system of internal combustion engines * The air intake of marine inboard engines * Davy lamps in coal mining * Overproof rum and other flammable liquors. * Portable plastic gasoline containers Principles Flame a ...

Detonation Flame Arrester
Detonation () is a type of combustion involving a supersonic exothermic front accelerating through a medium that eventually drives a shock front propagating directly in front of it. Detonations propagate supersonically through shock waves with speeds in the range of 1 km/sec and differ from deflagrations which have subsonic flame speeds in the range of 1 m/sec. Detonations occur in both conventional solid and liquid explosives, as well as in reactive gases. The velocity of detonation in solid and liquid explosives is much higher than that in gaseous ones, which allows the wave system to be observed with greater detail (higher resolution). A very wide variety of fuels may occur as gases (e.g. hydrogen), droplet fogs, or dust suspensions. In addition to dioxygen, oxidants can include halogen compounds, ozone, hydrogen peroxide and oxides of nitrogen. Gaseous detonations are often associated with a mixture of fuel and oxidant in a composition somewhat below conventional flammabil ...

Punch Press
A punch press is a type of machine press used to cut holes in material. It can be small and manually operated and hold one simple die set, or be very large, CNC operated, with a multi-station turret and hold a much larger and complex die set. Description Punch presses are large machines with either a 'C' type frame, or a 'portal' (bridge) type frame. The ''C'' type has the hydraulic ram at the top foremost part, whereas the portal frame is much akin to a complete circle with the ram being centered within the frame to stop frame deflection or distortion. C type presses have a bed plate which is used to lock the die bottom bolster. For locking the die, T-bolts are used and so this plate contains T-slots into which T-bolts are slid in. These slots are placed diagonally and with a slot horizontal to the longer side of the plate, is the general practice. These slots run up to a central hole made in the plate, the hole being large enough to accommodate another bush with a hole, the ho ...
