  2. Weld purging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weld_purging

    Most weld purging is carried out on joints made by the TIG or GTAW arc welding process. [6] When the laser welding process is chosen, joints or welds being made on reactive materials will need to be carried out and in the case of electron beam welding, this is carried out in a vacuum, in which case purging takes place by complete evacuation of all gas.

  3. Liger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liger

    This is in accordance with Haldane's rule: in hybrids of animals whose sex is determined by sex chromosomes, if one of the two sexes is absent, rare or sterile, it will be the heterogametic sex. Male ligers are consequently sterile, while female ligers are not. Ligers and tigons were long thought to be totally sterile.

  4. Liliger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liliger

    The liliger is the hybrid offspring of a male lion (Panthera leo) and a female liger (Panthera leo♂ × Panthera tigris♀). Thus, it is a second generation hybrid. In accordance with Haldane's rule, male tigons and ligers are sterile, but female ligers and tigons can produce cubs.

  5. Tube cleaning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_cleaning

    A mechanical tube cleaning system is a cleaning body that is moved through the tube in order to remove deposits from the tube wall. In the most simple case it is a matter of a brush that is moved in the tube by means of a rod or a flexible spring (device). In large-scale technology and industrial sector, however, several processes have ...

  6. Oxy-fuel welding and cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

    Welding in the vertical or overhead positions is typically slower than welding in the flat or horizontal positions. The welder must add the filler rod to the molten puddle. The welder must also keep the filler metal in the hot outer flame zone when not adding it to the puddle to protect filler metal from oxidation.

  7. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

    In contrast to a coupling requiring solvent welding, soldering, or rotation (for threaded couplings), a union allows easy connection and disconnection multiple times if needed. It consists of three parts: a nut, a female, and a male end. When the female and male ends are joined, the nut seals the joint by pressing the two ends tightly together.

  8. Hyperbaric welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbaric_welding

    Underwater welding Underwater welding habitat for dry hyperbaric welding. Hyperbaric welding is the process of extreme welding at elevated pressures, normally underwater. [1] [2] Hyperbaric welding can either take place wet in the water itself or dry inside a specially constructed positive pressure enclosure and hence a dry environment.

  9. Pipefitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipefitter

    Pipe fitters plan and test piping and tubing layouts; cut, bend or fabricate pipe or tubing segments; and join those segments by threading them, using lead joints, welding, brazing, cementing, or soldering them together. They install manual, pneumatic, hydraulic and electric valves in pipes to control the flow through the pipes or tubes.
