Actuator

An actuator is a component of a machine that produces force, torque, or displacement, usually in a controlled way, when an electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic input is supplied to it in a system (called an actuating system).

See Metal bellows and Actuator

Aerospace

Aerospace is a term used to collectively refer to the atmosphere and outer space.

See Metal bellows and Aerospace

Altitude

Altitude is a distance measurement, usually in the vertical or "up" direction, between a reference datum and a point or object.

See Metal bellows and Altitude

Bellows

A bellows or pair of bellows is a device constructed to furnish a strong blast of air.

See Metal bellows and Bellows

Brass

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, in proportions which can be varied to achieve different colours and mechanical, electrical, acoustic and chemical properties, but copper typically has the larger proportion, generally 66% copper and 34% zinc.

See Metal bellows and Brass

Cold working

In metallurgy, cold forming or cold working is any metalworking process in which metal is shaped below its recrystallization temperature, usually at the ambient temperature.

See Metal bellows and Cold working

Control panel (engineering)

A control panel is a flat, often vertical, area where control or monitoring instruments are displayed or it is an enclosed unit that is the part of a system that users can access, such as the control panel of a security system (also called control unit).

See Metal bellows and Control panel (engineering)

Copper

Copper is a chemical element; it has symbol Cu and atomic number 29.

See Metal bellows and Copper

Cost

Cost is the value of money that has been used up to produce something or deliver a service, and hence is not available for use anymore.

See Metal bellows and Cost

Deep drawing

Deep drawing is a sheet metal forming process in which a sheet metal blank is radially drawn into a forming die by the mechanical action of a punch.

See Metal bellows and Deep drawing

Deformation (engineering)

In engineering, deformation (the change in size or shape of an object) may be elastic or plastic.

See Metal bellows and Deformation (engineering)

Dielectric gas

A dielectric gas, or insulating gas, is a dielectric material in gaseous state.

See Metal bellows and Dielectric gas

Direct current

Direct current (DC) is one-directional flow of electric charge.

See Metal bellows and Direct current

Electroforming

Electroforming is a metal forming process in which parts are fabricated through electrodeposition on a model, known in the industry as a mandrel.

See Metal bellows and Electroforming

End-face mechanical seal

In mechanical engineering, an end-face mechanical seal (often shortened to mechanical seal) is a type of seal used in rotating equipment, such as pumps, mixers, blowers, and compressors.

See Metal bellows and End-face mechanical seal

Expansion joint

A expansion joint, or movement joint, is an assembly designed to hold parts together while safely absorbing temperature-induced expansion and contraction of building materials.

See Metal bellows and Expansion joint

Fireplace

A fireplace or hearth is a structure made of brick, stone or metal designed to contain a fire.

See Metal bellows and Fireplace

Forge

A forge is a type of hearth used for heating metals, or the workplace (smithy) where such a hearth is located.

See Metal bellows and Forge

Hermetic seal

A hermetic seal is any type of sealing that makes a given object airtight (preventing the passage of air, oxygen, or other gases).

See Metal bellows and Hermetic seal

Hydroforming

Hydroforming is a means of shaping ductile metals such as aluminium, brass, low alloy steel, and stainless steel into lightweight, structurally stiff and strong pieces.

See Metal bellows and Hydroforming

Leak

A leak is a way (usually an opening) for fluid to escape a container or fluid-containing system, such as a tank or a ship's hull, through which the contents of the container can escape or outside matter can enter the container.

See Metal bellows and Leak

Load cell

A load cell converts a force such as tension, compression, pressure, or torque into a signal (electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic pressure, or mechanical displacement indicator) that can be measured and standardized.

See Metal bellows and Load cell

Low voltage

In electrical engineering, low voltage is a relative term, the definition varying by context.

See Metal bellows and Low voltage

A machine tool is a machine for handling or machining metal or other rigid materials, usually by cutting, boring, grinding, shearing, or other forms of deformations.

See Metal bellows and Machine tool

Medicine

Medicine is the science and practice of caring for patients, managing the diagnosis, prognosis, prevention, treatment, palliation of their injury or disease, and promoting their health.

See Metal bellows and Medicine

Nickel

Nickel is a chemical element; it has symbol Ni and atomic number 28.

See Metal bellows and Nickel

Pressure measurement

Pressure measurement is the measurement of an applied force by a fluid (liquid or gas) on a surface.

See Metal bellows and Pressure measurement

Servomotor

A servomotor (or servo motor or simply servo) is a rotary or linear actuator that allows for precise control of angular or linear position, velocity, and acceleration in a mechanical system.

See Metal bellows and Servomotor

Stainless steel

Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), and rustless steel, is an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting and corrosion.

See Metal bellows and Stainless steel

Stepper motor

A stepper motor, also known as step motor or stepping motor,Clarence W. de Silva.

See Metal bellows and Stepper motor

Strain gauge

A strain gauge (also spelled strain gage) is a device used to measure strain on an object.

See Metal bellows and Strain gauge

Sylphon

A sylphon is an old name for a cylindrically symmetrical metal bellows.

See Metal bellows and Sylphon

TA Luft

Germany has an air pollution control regulation titled "Technical Instructions on Air Quality Control" (Technische Anleitung zur Reinhaltung der Luft) and commonly referred to as the TA Luft.

See Metal bellows and TA Luft

Titanium

Titanium is a chemical element; it has symbol Ti and atomic number 22.

See Metal bellows and Titanium

Voltage

Voltage, also known as (electrical) potential difference, electric pressure, or electric tension is the difference in electric potential between two points.

See Metal bellows and Voltage

Welding

Welding is a fabrication process that joins materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, primarily by using high temperature to melt the parts together and allow them to cool, causing fusion.

See Metal bellows and Welding

Yield (engineering)

In materials science and engineering, the yield point is the point on a stress-strain curve that indicates the limit of elastic behavior and the beginning of plastic behavior. Metal bellows and yield (engineering) are mechanics.
