TBH, I'd have a discussion with Cathy about her ferrets. Hopefully she has funny pics of them!
Do you know that train tracks are often welded together by induction! Can you imagine the electricity it takes for that? It is a $1M unit that does it.
Some of it is done with explosion welding. Really cheap way of doing it.Do you know that train tracks are often welded together by induction! Can you imagine the electricity it takes for that? It is a $1M unit that does it.
Better induction than outductionDo you know that train tracks are often welded together by induction! Can you imagine the electricity it takes for that? It is a $1M unit that does it.
They also pour a casting directly around the ends. but the inductive method is impressive. After they have to check the track for quite a distance to see if, during cooling it popped any other junctions.Some of it is done with explosion welding. Really cheap way of doing it.
Just checked it out, that’s a lot of work for one weld! I always wonderEd how the tracks expand in the heat? There’s no gap between the rails so……….I love the guys hard hat protecting the jack instead of his head.They also pour a casting directly around the ends. but the inductive method is impressive.

We did this at the power plant on our grounding cable ends.Just checked it out, that’s a lot of work for one weld! I always wonderEd how the tracks expand in the heat? There’s no gap between the rails so……….I love the guys hard hat protecting the jack instead of his head.
