Language of the English . Material: Abstract: Vulcan Iron Works was a producer of mine and industrial locomotives, mine hoists, and other colliery machinery. Vulcan's locomotives were designed for mine, logging, plantation and factory work, including steam, electric and battery models for underground haulage. A large number were sold to strip mine and earth moving contractors. The majority of the collection consists of original negatives (glass plate and film) dating from about the 1880s to 1943. These are builder's photographs, recording the construction of locomotives and machinery, although there are some photographs of the plants themselves (interiors and exteriors), employees at work, the town of Wilkes-Barre, and equipment installed and in service, particularly at collieries in the anthracite fields. About half the pictures are of locomotives and the rest are of mining equipment. There are also 1,340 negatives of drawings and plans, chiefly of mining equipment hoists. The collection also contains about 2,400 copy photographs made to preserve the images on original nitrate negatives which had extensively deteriorated. The collection is organized into five series: Railroad; Mining and manufacturing equipment; Factory, mill, and shop views; Drawings; and People. ^ Return to Table of Contents - Page 3- Vulcan Iron Works negatives 1971.210 Historical Note Vulcan Iron Works was a producer of mine and industrial locomotives, mine hoists, and other colliery machinery. Vulcan's locomotives were designed for mine, logging, plantation and factory work, including steam, electric and battery models for underground haulage. A large number were sold to strip mine and earth moving contractors. Richard Jones (1816-1847) founded the Vulcan Iron Works in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, in 1849 to produce specialty iron products for the local anthracite coal industry. The company incorporated in 1867. By 1881 its facilities included a machine shop, a foundry, a blacksmith-boiler shop, and a pattern store and office, all located near the Lehigh Valley Railroad, the Lehigh and Susquehanna Railroad, and the Pennsylvania Canal. In addition to general machine work, the company made mining machinery, castings, and forgings. Branch shops were built in West Pittston and Tamaqua, Pennsylvania, and in 1888 Vulcan acquired the Wyoming Valley Manufacturing Company, makers of locomotives. This soon became a major part of Vulcan's activities, with the company making all types and sizes of locomotives for domestic and foreign industries. The company did a modest export business to Canada, Latin America, Russia and East Asia. Vulcan's other product lines consisted primarily of material movement and processing machinery: hoisting engines, shaft cages, bucket elevators, crushers, picking tables and jigs for separating slate from coal, as well as mine fans. Most were sold to coal mining firms in the Appalachian coal fields and to remote operations of firms like Bethlehem Steel that were headquartered in Pennsylvania. It also sold grinding mills and rotary kilns to the portland cement industry that grew up on the southeastern border of the anthracite fields as well as some sugarcane processing machinery in Louisiana and Cuba. World War I led to further expansion, and in 1919 Vulcan built a steel plant with open-hearth furnaces to supply their needs. By 1929 the company employed about 1,600 persons, manufacturing locomotives (both gasoline and diesel-electric) and electric hoists for mines. The collapse of the anthracite industry in the 1930s destroyed a large part of the company's market, and heavy trucks gradually replaced locomotives in stripping and construction haulage. Locomotive production ended with builder's number 4877 in May 1949. Machinery production continued into the mid-1950s. ^ Return to Table of Contents Scope and Content The majority of the collection consists of original negatives (glass plate and film) dating from about the 1880s to 1943.

  • A Novel NDT Method for Measuring Thickness of Brush-Electroplated
    17th World Conference on Nondestructive Testing, 25-28 Oct 2008, Shanghai, China A Novel NDT Method for Measuring Thickness of Brush-Electroplated Nickel Coating on Ferrous Metal Sueface Shiyun DONG 1, * , Binshi XU 1 , Junming LIN 2 1 National Key Laboratory for Remanufacturing, Beijing 100072, China 2 Eddysun (Xiamen) Electronic Co., LTD., Xiamen, Fujian, 361004, China * Tel: +86-10-66718541, Email: [email protected] Abstract Brush-electroplated nickel coating has been widely applied to repair and remanufacture ferrous metal component. Generally, the nickel coating has thickness from 0.05 mm to 0.2 mm, and it is also ferromagnetic like iorn metals. Therefore, the traditional supersonic thickness tester and eddy current thickness tester are not competent to measure the nickel coating thickness on iron or steel metal surface, and the brush-electropalted nickel coatings are still lack of NDT method to measure its thickness. In this paper, a novel NDT method for the brush-electroplated nickel coating thickness measuring was investigated on eddy current mechanism. A series of brush-electroplated nickel coatings with various thickness were prepared on SUS1045 steel, whose thickness was confirmed on cross-section with SEM or optical microscope. Then Eddy signals of the coatings was tested, and a fitted relationship between the eddy signal phase and the thickness was found for the nickel coatings. Based on this results, a novel NDT method to measure the nickel coating thickness was set up, which could give precise resuts and be operated simply. Therefore, the method shows wide application in engineering. Key words ：eddy current, brush-electroplated nickel coating, coating thickness, NDT 1.

  • Design of Special Purpose Hydraulic Press Machine
    Vol-4 Issue-3 2018 IJARIIE-ISSN(O)-2395-4396 DESIGN OF SPECIAL PURPOSE HYDRAULIC PRESS MACHINE Joshi Ameya1, Kamble Sanket2, Parvatikar Darshan3 1Student, Mechanical Engineering, LGNS College Of Engg, Maharashtra, India 2Student, Mechanical Engineering, LGNS College Of Engg, Maharashtra, India 3Student, Mechanical Engineering, LGNS College Of Engg, Maharashtra, India ABSTRACT A hydraulic press is a device using a hydraulic cylinder to generate a compressive force. Hydraulic presses are commonly used for forging, clinching, molding, blanking, punching, deep drawing, and metal forming operations. A special purpose hydraulic press is suggested for press fitting two child parts of muffler used in silencers of automobile and marine industry. After observing the drawbacks in manual process of press fitting, hydraulic press needs to be designed. Thus the project is to design, analysis and fabrication of special purpose hydraulic press machine of required tonnage. Keywords- Hydraulic press, special purpose machine, press fitting, muffler, silencer 1. INTROCUCTION A muffler is a device for decreasing the amount of noise emitted by the exhaust of an internal combustion engine. Mufflers are installed within the exhaust system of most internal combustion engines, although the muffler is not designed to serve any primary exhaust function. The muffler is engineered as an acoustic soundproofing device designed to reduce the loudness of the sound pressure created by the engine by way of acoustic quieting. The majority of the sound pressure produced by the engine is emanated out of the vehicle via the same piping used by the silent exhaust gases. The emitted noise is abated by a series of passages and chambers lined with insulation and/or resonating chambers harmonically tuned to cause destructive interference, wherein opposite sound waves cancel each other out.

  • Steel Characteristics and Their Link to Chip Breaking and Tool Wear in Metal Cutting
    Steel characteristics and their link to chip breaking and tool wear in metal cutting Niclas Ånmark Doctoral Thesis in Materials Science and Engineering Stockholm 2016 i Akademisk avhandling som med tillstånd av Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan i Stockholm, framlägges för offentlig granskning för avläggande av teknologie doktorsexamen, onsdagen den 8 juni 2016, kl. 10.00 i hörsal B3, Brinellvägen 23, Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan, Stockholm KTH Royal Institute of Technology School of Industrial Engineering and Management Department of Materials Science and Engineering Division of Applied Process Metallurgy SE-100 44 Stockholm, Sweden ISBN 978-91-7595-949-8 Cover: Reprinted with permission of Sandvik Coromant Copyright © Niclas Ånmark, 2016 This thesis is available in electronic version at kth.diva-portal.org Printed by US-AB, Stockholm, Sweden ii Abstract The vision of this thesis is to study how it is possible to obtain optimised workpieces during metal cutting processes in industry. Specifically, the work is aimed to increase the understanding between the steel characteristics and their link to the chip breaking and tool wear during metal cutting. The emphasis is on the influence of the cleanliness and the characteristics of non-metallic inclusions in the workpiece on the machinability of carburising steel grades. The machinability of a case hardening steel is improved by a M-treatment (additions of Ca). Also, the improved machinability of the M-steels offers an attractive potential to save money which makes it possible to reduce the tooling costs with up to 50%. The improved machinability of Ca-treated steels is correlated to the formation of lubricating slag layers consisting of Ca-enriched sulfide inclusions and oxy-sulfide inclusions, which are formed on the rake face during the machining operation.
