Anti-slipping system improves wire saw performance

System prevents wire saw slippage by providing sufficient friction to turn idler spools even when turns of wire on spools do not provide sufficient friction. Low cost system is easily applied to existing equipment.

Low-noise flow valve for air ducts

Valve assembly controls air flow from feeder into main duct, with minimum of turbulence, friction, pressure differential, and noise. Valve consists of damper, deflector, and spring. Streamlining of damper and deflector merges flow smoothly, while spring keeps damper and deflector in contact and eliminates valve chatter and damping vibrations.
