    Hot plate welding has relatively long cycle times, ranging from 10 seconds to minutes, compared to vibration or ultrasonic welding. However, its simplicity and ability to produce strong joints in almost all thermoplastics make it widely used in mass production and for large structures, like large-diameter plastic pipes.

  8. Cold-formed steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold-formed_steel

    The manufacturing process involves forming the material by either press-braking or cold roll forming to achieve the desired shape. When steel is formed by press-braking or cold rolled forming, there is a change in the mechanical properties of the material by virtue of the cold working of the metal.

  9. Rollover protection structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rollover_protection_structure

    Some tractor operators have raised concerns about using ROPS in low-clearance environments, such as in orchards and buildings. In response, NIOSH developed an Automatically Deploying Rollover Protective Structure (AutoROPS) which stays in a lowered position until a rollover condition is determined, at which time it deploys to a fully extended and locked position.
