Metal Rainwater Systems Comparison Matrix SlidesAnthony Hitchman
We're often asked 'what's the difference?' between each of the metal rainwater systems we sell. As if it was a question we could answer in a few sentences.
Or we’re asked to say 'which is the best?' when that depends entirely on YOUR project/property, YOUR budget and YOUR preferences.
So, to try to answer those questions as simply and clearly as possible we’ve created a Matrix (or table!) and assigning a score from 1 to 4 for each 'feature' we think you should consider in making YOUR choice.
Bearings support moving parts, such as shafts and spindles, of a machine or mechanism.
Bearings may be classed as
(i) Rolling contact (Ball and roller) bearings.
(ii) Plain bearings.
Comprehensive and up to date presentation on the importance of ferrous scrap in the world steel market. Includes the role that Turkey plays in this market and the future of scrap in derivatives.

Umění najít si vášeň v dělání nepříjemných věcí je pro osobní rozvoj jednou z nejpodstatnějších dovedností. Mnozí však zůstáváme uvězněni v naší komfortní zóně. Táhne nás dav a my nedokážeme projevit své názory. Selháváme při oslovení cizího člověka. Vyhýbáme se sportu, dietě, rozchodu či úklidu. Vymlouváme se sami před sebou. Nejvíce odvahy ztrácíme, pokud víme, že se nikdo nedívá. Jak z toho ven?
Driving Results Across the Funnel with ABMDemandbase
Featuring Rachel Balik, Zineb Harvey and Leah Allen
Account-Based Marketing Strategist, Demandbase
Unlike the traditional approach of mass marketing, ABM enables B2B marketers to focus their efforts on high-value accounts, leading to more, higher quality leads and a more measurable impact on pipeline opportunities. If you’re ready to rethink digital marketing with an ABM focus, this full-funnel workshop will cover the specific ways that ABM can be applied in order to optimize the value of your website and analytics. In this session, you’ll learn how to:
- Measure the success of your current programs with an ABM focus
- Tailor your content to address the pain points of target accounts
- Capture metrics for key segments
- Optimize and focus marketing activities across the funnel with ABM
Satellites play a significant role in communication, early warning systems, global broadcasting, meteorology, navigation, reconnaissance, remote sensing, and surveillance.Satellite services cover practically every sector, from mobile cellular communication to telemedicine, so any interference with them could have a serious effect. Satellites are a strategic asset for any country and are considered as “critical infrastructure,” therefore they are considerable as privileged targets for a possible cyber attack.
Piping components, materials, codes and standards part 1- pipeAlireza Niakani
The course is focused on four areas: piping components, pipe materials and manufacture, sizes, codes and standards. Applicable piping codes for oil and gas facilities (ISO, B31.3, B31.4, B31.8, etc.), pipe sizing calculations, pipe installation, and materials selection are an integral part of the course. The emphasis is on proper material selection and specification of piping systems.

Rautomead Newsletter issue 01
continuouscasting.com
For over 30 years Rautomead Limited has specialised in the design and manufacture of continuous casting equipment for non-ferrous metals and alloys. There are now more than 300 Rautomead machines in operation in over 45 different countries worldwide.
Rautomead plants are being successfully applied to production of oxygen-free copper, a wide range of copper-based alloys, precious metals and zinc. Forms include wire rod, straight length bars, flats and hollow sections. According to material and section, the casting process selected may be vertical upwards, vertical downwards or horizontal. The machines may be used either as integrated melting, holding and casting machines, or may be arranged to be fed with pre-alloyed molten metal.
The Rautomead Continuous Casting System is based on electric resistance heating of its furnaces, with graphite containment crucibles, graphite heating elements and casting dies. This technology is particularly suited for production of high purity, high quality oxygen-free copper and copper alloy wire rods (copper silver, copper magnesium, copper tin).
The upward casting equipment may be used to manufacture rods of all diameters between 8.0mm and 30mm diameter and is suitable feedstock for wire drawing and continuous rotary extrusion processes. End use applications include: superfine wire, automotive wires, contact wire and trolley wires for high speed trains, data communication cables, CTC and transformer strips as well as enamelled wires.
Rautomead’s R&D facility at the factory in Dundee (casting equipment, technicians, design and operational experience) is available to companies who wish to commission experimental and research work to develop technology and tooling for the manufacture and processing of new alloys and materials. Rautomead’s partnership with the University of Dundee provides access to sophisticated laboratory equipment as well as support with analytical evaluation and academic contributions to the R&D effort

High purity, excellent
surface and micro-
alloyed compositions
The main consumers of cop-
per are in the electrical and
electronics industry due to the
excellent electrical and thermal
conductivity of copper.
Copper is an ideal material for
heavy gauge printed circuit
boards (PCBs), switches, differ-
ent components, transformers,
heat sinks and base plates, bus
bars, commutators and many
other demanding applications
such as direct copper bonding
(DCB).
The combination of chemical
composition and excellent sur-
face quality of higher thickness-
es or dimensions covers different
applications.
The properties of pure copper
can still be improved by micro-
alloyed amounts of silver that
enable use under high, de-
manding temperatures.
Quality Assurance
The high quality level is
constantly monitored and
documented in our Quality
Management System. All strip
production sites are certified
against TS 16949 and/or
DIN EN ISO 9001:2008.

Three main processes are used
for coating: hot-dip tinning, elec-
troplating and electroplating with
a subsequent reflow treatment.
The high demands placed by the
automotive, electrical and elec-
tronics industries on connectors
and stamped grids, such as low
insertion forces, good corrosion
protection and good solderabil-
ity, often require the materials
used to have a surface treat-
ment. Accordingly, copper and
copper alloys are coated with a
variety of metals, of which pure
tin is of particular importance.
With its proven technology,
Aurubis offers further kinds of
coatings, such as Ag, Cu-Ni, etc.,
including selective procedures
with service partners.
