In accordance with OSHA's National Emphasis Program on Amputations, Streamline recently got a surprise visit from an OSHA inspector. We're proud to report Streamline Industries passed the inspection with no violations or warnings.
As a key component of a material handling system, rotary airlock valves are used to control the amount of dry, free-flowing granules, pellets or powders that can enter the system at one time.
Our cutting-edge, Louisiana machine shop has a full range of state-of-the-art CNC manufacturing equipment, manual machining equipment, dynamic balancing equipment and a specialized welding department. That said, we also understand that sometimes the only way to get the job done right--on time and on budget--is to bring the machine shop to our customers.
Streamline Industries, following the guidelines outlined in the ISO 9001/2000 standard, has been providing the highest quality machining services and custom manufacturing of specialized equipment for more than three decades.
Oil and gas faces the the lack of skilled professionals who can respond to this need. Technology and manpower can help boost both production and quality. That's why the machining projects of the oil and gas industry revolve around the following considerations.
From aeronautics to medicine and science, metal fabrication is a vital component of achieving an improved quality of life. By building metal structures and components specifically designed for high-precision tasks, we are able to facilitate, automate, and complete tasks faster and more accurately.
Given how massive the impact is of the domestic petrochemical companies to the national economy, it is only wise to ensure that companies in Louisiana also use only high-precision, top-notch machining equipment and employ the expertise of highly qualified equipment manufacturing professionals who can provide top-caliber welding, tuning, drilling, and other machining services.
Industries that improve the quality of life depend greatly on machining services to get their work done. From medical tools to aviation to businesses that deal with petrochemicals and oil pipelines, machining, assembly and related services like the ones described below are a key part of modern industry.
Let's take a closer look at 4140 annealed, hot or cold-rolled steel and see why it's such a valuable material for oil and gas applications from wellhead to downhole.
Rotary airlock valves are also called rotary feeders, rotary valves, or just rotary airlocks. Used in both pressure style and vacuum style pneumatic conveying systems, these valves serve as a "lock" to prevent air loss while simultaneously performing vital material handling functions. Though simple, the rotary airlock valve is a critical component to the efficiency of a conveying system. It's important to remember that not all rotary valves are necessarily rotary airlock valves - but virtually all rotary airlocks are rotary valves.
