Hamilton Caster was the company who designed and built our trailers.

Are you looking for trailers that can transport multiple pallets or a single unit? We had two trailers custom built to transport eight pallets per trailer. They were pintle hitch and capable of 20K pounds or so. They're not four wheel steer, but the front wheels are articulated and they can...

akat, We're using a very basic panametrics unit, Model 26, with a 5MHz dual element transducer. This model has a digital display. I think that the proper transducer may help, but I'm not even sure a transducer will overcome the limitations of our base unit. Any thoughts on what transducer...

We are using a part that consists of polyurethane molded into a channel in a metal ring. The channel is .375W x .438DP. The molding company is having problems removing the air from the base of the channel and it's causing us problems. Is there a way to perform NDT on these parts for QC...

I've worked a rotating 12 hr shift that gave a seven day stretch of off time once a month. That was the only benefit. Switching from days to nights and back was murder. Our full time coverage here utilizes four 12 hour shifts, but they are fixed on nights or days. This schedule ensures they...

All, Thank you for the responses. We have recently ordered a Line Vac from Exair. It appears to be very similar to the units that brauer manufactures. It's good to hear that it has been successfully used elsewhere. Stanier, other than solid grounding, did you use any static elimination...

We've got an application where polystyrene beads are added to a mixing vessel that is charged with other dry ingredients. The current method involves measuring the beads by volume and pouring them into the top of the mixer. Quite messy since the mixer is under a positive pressure. Ideally, I...

Jheidt, Griffy, Thank you for your input. J, I've got the same opinions as you regarding the fastener problems as well as the standing seam retrofit being the best option. We are enlisting the services of a roofing consultant to help with preparing the design and bidding documents and to...

We are searching for repair options to our 28 yr old R-panel metal roof. My preference is to remove and replace with a standing seam system. However, the folks who write the checks want less expensive alternatives. We're doing a structural analysis to determine if the frame will support a...

Thank you for your response/feedback. I'm kinda between a rock and a hard place. My facility has been identified as the most advanced in the company (good), so they think that I can spend a little time at the other facilities with vastly different processes and equipment, tell them to start...

I'm in charge of engineering and maintenance at a midsize facility. I believe that we've got a fairly effective maintenance organization that is primarily PM based. However. . . I also feel that we are somewhat stagnant and need to take the next step and I'm in search of that step. Would...

I have been asked to train plant personnel at several other facilities within my organization on maintenance best practices, especially preventive maintenance. These facilities are about 90% reactive and need to change their focus. My thoughts are to bring in a professional trainer who can...
