Paste helps to stop leaks caused by caustic chemicals in water treatment plants

for expensive emergency repairs that coincide with finding and fixing a preventable leak, and they experience extended facility life, lower operational costs and reduced potential for water damage, contamination and waste, all of which contribute to operational efficiency in water treatment plants. Fluoramics Inc manufactures engineered PTFE solutions for industrial, commercial and consumer use. The sealants, greases, lubricants and rust inhibitors are marketed under brands such as Tufoil ® , HinderRust ® , LOX-8 ® and Formula 8 ® .

Already used throughout industries including aerospace, medical, cryogenic, nuclear and other high-tech fields, LOX-8 has been found to provide water treatment facilities with a reliable, long-lasting seal for each threaded connection. Oxygen-compatible and impervious to hypochlorite and chlorine used in water treatment, the high- density thread sealant remains in place. It is specifically formulated for wet conditions and does not harden, so it will retain its resiliency and eliminate the risk of cold flow. LOX-8 is recommended by Chlorine Institute members (Pamphlet 164). Without risk of leakage, water treatment plants are able to eliminate the need

Water treatment plants face many pip- ing system issues, including leakage and creep. Caustic chemical exposure leaves a facility susceptible to vulner- abilities in each threaded connection. Inadequate sealants can increase main- tenance demands, as well as create a potential for contamination, property damage and water shortage. LOX-8 Paste from Fluoramics is used in water treatment plants as a proactive measure to ensure lasting seals in hypochlorite pipes and threaded joints to stop leaks. The PCTFE/PTFE paste is able to withstand hypochlorites, providing better performance as a thread sealant where safety and extended service life are required.

Economy and precision in one machine Wolf Maschinenbau AG is a specialist with more than 28 years of experience in designing and manufacturing rotary table transfer machines. With the Wolf TSM280, the implementation of a wide range of individual manufacturing processes is offered in one machine. the field of post-processing or finishing of extruded parts and turned parts, as well as the complete production of parts made of tube or full material. The Wolf TSM280 can produce tube parts with a diameter from 2 to 45mm, and different lengths.

Adaptable units include drill and lathe spindles, threading units, plunge- cutting units, milling units, cross-drilling units, embossing and pressing units, measuring and test equipment, and special-purpose units. TheWolfCMD, a digital centremeasuring device, combines optimal measuring with high-precision alignment, for an alternative to error-prone analogue measuring with a dial gauge. It enables process-reliable, high-precision measurement without parallax error and with maximum speed. All measured

The all-in-one machine is characterised by its efficiency and process reliability. A further advantage is the compact design of the machine. With the modular machines, high quantities can be produced precisely within short cycle times. The Wolf TSM280 is based on the rotary transfer concept and was developed for medium and large series as well as for different products and parts families. Maximum flexibility enables part production with low set-up effort. The focus is on efficiency and precision in

values are graphically prepared and documented. The latest development is the Wolf TSM280R, where loading and unloading takes place using an integrated handling robot with six axes. This offers more flexibility and ensures reliable loading and unloading of difficult-to-feed and individual parts. Turned parts, pressed parts and extruded parts can be reworked flexibly and precisely without feeding difficulty. Wolf Maschinenbau AG – Germany
