Unlike two-piece cans, three-piece cans cannot be die-necked repeatedly to form a smooth neck because of the non-homogeneity of their welded seam.

Avec la diminution du diamètre du col des boîtes-boisson (col 202), le procédé de formage par «die necking» s'est particulièrement bien développé ces dernières années [...] Il existe principalement deux variantes de ce procédé : La première [...] consiste à former un col à gradins. [...] L'autre variante consiste à former un col lisse.

CONT

A real-time digital video-image-processing system contributes to the automation of weld-seam tracking. The tracking system makes no contact with the seam. A small television camera views the seam just ahead of the point currently being welded. The welding arc provides the illumination. Periodically, a frame grabber digitizes the video image and stores it in a computer memory as gray-scale values. The seam is located by analyzing Hough-transform arrays of derivatives of digitally-filtered image data. The information on the location and orientation of the seam is used as feedback by a welding robot to correct deviations of the electrode from the seam as welding continues.

Subject field(s)
  • Drainage and Irrigation (Agric.)
  • Irrigation (Civil Engineering)
CONT

Emitters usually have close, uniform spacings(e. g. 0. 025-0. 60 m) along a lateral line and emitters are either simple orifices, long path or labyrinth flow paths or a combination. Emitters may be embossed within the welded seam of the tape or they may be separate, pre-molded devices installed during fabrication.... The labyrinth emitter, designed with long intricate passageways, will create turbulent flow at normal operating pressures and is often called a turbulent or turbulent-path emitter. The turbulent flow resists plugging by allowing the flow path to be as large as possible and preventing small particles from settling or becoming lodged in the passageway. Flow rates from turbulent path emitters are also relatively insensitive to temperature fluctuations, thus avoiding a major cause of nonuniform water application under field conditions. Currently, most point source emitters utilize turbulent flow paths to control the application of water on tubing and some tapes, and are highly recommended for wine grape irrigation in the PNW.

L'organe de distribution d'un réseau de micro-irrigation par goutte à goutte est le goutteur. Celui-ci peut être en ligne donc inséré sur la rampe ou en dérivation donc fiché dans la paroi de celle-ci ou relié par l'intermédiaire d'un petit tube appelé conducteur. On distingue des goutteurs à circuit court, des goutteurs à circuit long, des goutteurs à compensation de pression, des goutteurs turbulents à circuit court qui sont des cyclones miniaturisés, des goutteurs turbulents à circuit long, dit à chicanes ou labyrinthes.

Record 8 1989-01-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Resistance Welding
  • Packaging in Metal
CONT

Welded cans are manufactured by one of two methods, wheel or wire welding. Both are variations of a forge-welding process.... Wire welding can accommodate the use of tin plate while wheel welding is best suited for tin-free steel, TFS. When using TFS, both methods require grinders to clean the edges to be welded so that they are free of oxides and chrome surface materials. Prior to side seam welding, the body blanks are formed into cylinders and tack-welded to maintain shape and proper relationship of the edges to each other.... Welded seams are used extensively for three-piece beverage, aerosol and food cans.

OBS

The wire weld system has been developed by Soudronic A.G. Switzerland.
