      Just look for the details - like the old steel ropes holding the steel in the air on the crane.
      That doesn't meet any safety standards and when such a rope tears, it's super dangerous.

Guess we can't have that heavy industry here in the USA. Wait a minute... suppose there is a global war. Guess we ain't getting any necessary products here in the USA.

Bohužel bez úspěchu, až se mi ozval jeden známý, že nabízí čínské korunky a že není problém vyrobit cokoliv. Takže už dva roky vrtám korunkami vyrobenými podle vlastního návrhu v Číně a jsem konečně spokojen. Vše funguje jak má a já na čínské pracovníky nedám dopustit. Jen tak dál a ať se vše daří !

    Ωραίο βίντεο.
    Να προσθέσω:
    Η αλυσίδα αποτελείται από κομμάτια περίπου 27.5m.
    Κάθε 27.5m περίπου, υπάρχει ένας λίγο μεγαλύτερος κρίκος, που ανοίγει, και ενώνει τα τμήματα των 27.5m.
    Ο αριθμός των κρίκων σε κάθε κομμάτι των 27.5m, δεν είναι πολλαπλάσιο του 2, (δεν διαιρείται με το 2), αυτό γιατί οι κρίκοι που ανοίγουν (κάθε 27.5m περίπου), πρέπει να είναι στο βαρούλκο οριζόντιοι, και όχι κάθετοι. Αν ο αριθμός των κρίκων είναι πολαπλάσιο του 2, τότε κάποιοι κρίκοι (που ανοίγουν), θα είναι κάθετοι στο βαρούλκο, και δεν πρέπει να γίνει αυτό.
    Αυτά, συμβαίνουν σε όλες τις αλυσίδες για άγκυρες, μικρές και μεγάλες.
    Σε όλα τα πλοία, σε όλες τις χώρες.
    Σε κάποια πολεμικά πλοία, και σε κάποια πλοία ειδεικά, οι αλυσίδες είναι grade No1, και είναι εξαιρετικά ακριβές.Από εκατοντάδες χιλιάδες, έως εκατομμύρια δολλάρια.
    Στην χώρα μου, τα μεγάλα πλοία που κάνουν καθημερινά δρομολόγια στα νησιά, χρησημοποιούν τις άγκυρες 6-7 φορές κάθε μέρα. 1500-2000 φορές κάθε έτος!!!

      @feynthefallen 9 місяців тому +5

      ​@@mephInc I presume by woven you mean spliced, and that's just not true. Look at the cable laying on the floor right at the mark. The strands are coming out of it above the splice, which is definitely not good. Even if it were part of an eye splice, it would be a darn sloppy one, because you are supposed to clean up any excess of your splicing strands once you are done.

      Since the impact energy on metals if often temperature dependent, a test temperature of 23 °C is specified for Charpy impact tests at ambient temperature. Deviating test temperatures are permitted under standard-compliant conditions. Often Charpy impact tests are performed at low temperatures. These temperatures are usually at minus 20 °C and minus 40 °C.
