Let me know if this type of product would be helpful to specify on new construction project Or on service refurbishments. I like its simplicity and reminds of the GFCI tool I use when conducting field observiations.

Ever thought why we need regular maintenance to our tools. This is why....... In Japan, there is a process of "point and call" to prevent this. The train engineers are expected to tighten every nut, bolt and check the gauges and call it out loudly before the train starts another journey. The idea is that whenever you confirm something, you not only look at it, but also point at it and call out your observation. That is one of the reason for efficient train schedules and precision equipment from the country. This is a practise we can bring into our daily rituals as well to prevent accidents.

Vibrations are the stealthy saboteurs of machinery, gradually loosening bolts and nuts, which can lead to catastrophic failures. This phenomenon underscores the critical need for precise torque application and regular maintenance checks. Using thread-locking compounds or locknuts can mitigate this issue. These provide additional security by creating friction or mechanical locks, preventing the bolts from loosening under vibration. One surprising insight: NASA employs torque-tightening strategies meticulously because even minor loosening in the vacuum of space can jeopardize entire missions. On Earth, industries adopting similar rigor see significant safety and efficiency improvements. #PrecisionEngineering #VibrationControl #IndustrialSafety

A useful reminder of why the little details and processes matter, otherwise physics can catch you out!

Another great post Pascal! A simple demonstration with a big message. If you are using nuts and bolts, expect that they will loosen. What other methods of attachment can you use? STARC Systems engineered containment walls with this in mind; let me show you how our panels fasten.
