consumable electrode
41Submerged arc welding — (SAW) is a common arc welding process. Originally devolved by the Linde Union Carbide Company. It requires a continuously fed consumable solid or tubular (flux cored) electrode. The molten weld and the arc zone are protected from atmospheric… …
42Air-arc cutting — is also known as air carbon cutting and employs a consumable carbon or graphite electrode to melt the material, which is then blown away by an air jet. This process is useful for cutting a variety of materials, but it is most often used for… …
43Plasma arc welding — (PAW) is an arc welding process similar to gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW). The electric arc is formed between an electrode (which is usually but not always made of sintered tungsten) and the workpiece. The key difference from GTAW is that in PAW …
44Glucose meter — A glucose meter (or glucometer) is a medical device for determining the approximate concentration of glucose in the blood. It is a key element of home blood glucose monitoring (HBGM) by people with diabetes mellitus or with proneness to… …
45Electroslag welding — (ESW) is a highly productive, single pass welding process for thick (greater than 25mm up to about 300mm) materials in a vertical or close to vertical position. (ESW) is similar to electrogas welding, but the main difference is the arc starts in… …
46Inkjet printer — Inkjet printers operate by propelling variably sized droplets of liquid or molten material (ink) onto almost any sized page. They are the most common type of computer printer for the general consumerFact|date=November 2007 due to their low cost,… …
47ship construction — Introduction complex of activities concerned with the design and fabrication of all marine vehicles (ship). Ship construction today is a complicated compound of art and science. In the great days of sail, vessels were designed and… …
48Cupronickel — or copper nickel or cupernickel is an alloy of copper that contains nickel and strengthening elements, such as iron and manganese. Cupronickel is highly resistant to corrosion in seawater, because its electrode potential is adjusted to be neutral …
49Electro Slag Remelting — ESR or electro slag remelting (also known as electro flux remelting) is a process used for remelting and refining of steels and special alloys which are used for critical applications in aircraft, thermal and nuclear power plants, defence… …
