United Alloy’s Post

Building blocks… Our recent posts have been about new and pre-loved machinery, components, sheet metal, component patterns, robots and even cheesecake. Now we think it's time to highlight one of the most important functions within TENON Engineering and the industry at large. These guys often miss out on the glamorous accolades, but they are the backbone of our operations. We’re talking about our Flow Department, encompassing Planning, Purchasing, Stores and Facilities. Without Flow providing the essential ‘building blocks’ for Tenon Engineering, then failure and chaos would reign. Whether it's sourcing materials, component parts for assembly or organising the myriad of subcontract services, they play a pivotal role in maintaining the high standard of delivery that Tenon Engineering and our sister company Wallace Instruments are known for. So in the coming weeks, we will celebrate and highlight this department’s function and its vital role within Tenon Engineering and Wallace Instruments. ⚙️ enquiry@tenon-eng.com ⚙️ www.tenonengineering.co.uk #PrecisionEngineering #PrecisionManufacturing #ManufacturingAndEngineering #UKmfg #UKManufacturing #Engineering Terry Healy Chris Norval Mary Norval RUBBER HEART

For World Engineering Day, Mack's valve engineer Sally shares her career story to inspire a new generation of curious thinkers. "When I was young, I would see engineers working alongside my dad. I remember them always working on massive drawing boards and papers.  They spent time problem-solving in the factory. I loved that they could put their ideas into reality, which inspired me to explore engineering as a career. This has led me to my current role at Mack today, where I work as a mechanical engineer designing industrial valves. Lately, I have been heavily involved with the R&D for the cryogenic ball valves, which has involved design, testing, re-design and cold testing to verify our designs. I love being an engineer. Working at Mack enables me to work across many industries, which has broadened my engineering knowledge and expertise. My other (and most important job) is being a mother to my five-year-old son, Jayden, who is currently in kindergarten. I am fortunate that Mack allows flexible hours so that I can accommodate the kinder pickup and drop-off. Recently, I was asked to talk to Jayden's class about my engineering career. I was proud to share my story with them. I hope I have ignited a spark in a curious little boy or girl to discover a lifelong love of problem-solving. I'd be very proud to see Jayden following in my footsteps!"

Happy Engineers Day! Celebrating engineers who've transformed the world through mechanical seal innovations. From the inception of mechanical seals, and solving leakage issues in pumps, to today's cutting-edge designs enhancing efficiency, engineers have been the driving force in this evolution. This Engineers Day, let's reflect on how far we've come, bridging gaps in sealing technology. Just as early engineers tirelessly refined sealing solutions, modern engineers continue to push boundaries, ensuring reliability and sustainability in critical industries. 🛠️⚙️ Join us in honoring engineering pioneers and share your contributions to sealing advancements. Together, we engineer the future! #engineersday #mechanicalseals #innovation #pumps #efficiency #engineeringevolution #sealingtechnology #reliability #sustainability #criticalindustries #engineeringpioneers #engineeringcontributions #bridginggaps #engineerthefuture #sealingadvancements

I am excited to announce that my article on 'AI an Asset or Liability to Humans', has been published in the annual magazine of Department of Mechanical Engineering (Mechzine) AMU. You can read the full article on- https://lnkd.in/dnn36ssy

"Excited to announce that I've honed my skills in mechanical design with hands-on experience using Dessau LT systems! 💼🔧 It's been an incredible journey of growth and learning, and I'm eager to apply my expertise to future projects. #MechanicalDesign #Engineering #HandsOnExperience"

While I was working at LMW Machine Tool division, one sentence from my first manager, Mr. Thirumalai Kumar, changed my life forever. I was a mechanical design engineer at the beginning of my career, and like many fresh design engineers, I would change the design of machine components based on my manager's comments. Sometimes, I got irritated because my manager frequently changed the designs, and sometimes he would even ask me to revert to a previous design. One day, I argued with him, saying, "I did only what you said. If you're changing the design a lot, it's not my responsibility." He calmly replied, "See, Parthiban, most of the time in design, no one knows what the outcome will be. We try to visualize it in our minds. Sometimes, it matches our expectations, but often it does not. Just because we get unexpected results doesn't mean we're doing something wrong. We're simply experimenting with another design that doesn't outperform our current one." Even though I couldn't fully grasp those golden words at the time, as I gained more experience, I realized that those words apply not only to design but to many areas of life and have greatly benefited my business. Now, I became more like him and started to implement more changes even though sometimes it worked better. Now, my team members ask why I am always making changes and I remember him. 😁 Changes mean we are learning and upgrading something in the right direction. So adapt it! What did you learn from your first manager? #lmw #changes #theparthee #changemanagement #mechanical #design

When you organize a reunion of old mates from Berlin University and your topic was mechanical engineering the question where to go is easily answered. Duisburg in the heart of Germany and biggest steeltown in Europe brings back good memories including the iron-carbon diagram…. #bht, #duisburg, #steelindustry
