CRC-Evans supplies energy infrastructure technology and services to the oil and gas industry and owns approximately 129 patents. Since its founding as Crutcher Rolfs Cummings Inc by AS Crutcher, EL Rolfs and James Dell Cummings in 1933 and its eventual merger with Evans Pipeline Equipment in 1985, CRC-Evans has been a leading oil and gas ...
Pipe Cutting. Pipe cutting or pipe profiling is a mechanized industrial process that removes material from pipe or tubing to create a desired profile. Typical profiles include straight cuts, mitres, saddles and midsection holes. These complex cuts are usually required to allow a tight fit between two parts that are to be joined via arc welding .
Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material [ 1 ] by advancing a cutter into a workpiece. This may be done by varying directions [ 2 ] on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure. [ 3 ] Milling covers a wide variety of different operations and machines, on scales from small individual parts to large ...
Electrochemical machining (ECM) diagram. Electrochemical machining (ECM) is a method of removing metal by an electrochemical process. It is normally used for mass production and for working extremely hard materials, or materials that are difficult to machine using conventional methods. [1] Its use is limited to electrically conductive materials.
An electrical discharge machine. Electrical discharge machining (EDM), also known as spark machining, spark eroding, die sinking, wire burning or wire erosion, is a metal fabrication process whereby a desired shape is obtained by using electrical discharges (sparks). [1] Material is removed from the work piece by a series of rapidly recurring ...
Grinding is a subset of cutting, as grinding is a true metal-cutting process. Each grain of abrasive functions as a microscopic single-point cutting edge (although of high negative rake angle), and shears a tiny chip that is analogous to what would conventionally be called a "cut" chip (turning, milling, drilling, tapping, etc.) [citation needed].
Machining. CNC machine pouring coolant to keep the tool and parts from getting hot. Lathe machine. Machining is a manufacturing process where a desired shape or part is created using the controlled removal of material, most often metal, from a larger piece of raw material by cutting. Machining is a form of subtractive manufacturing, [1] which ...
Though inflation is slowing, Americans continue to struggle with sharply higher prices for such necessities as gas, food and housing compared with their pre-pandemic levels. For the third quarter ...
