Solutions to the problems of working with stainless steel “The thermal conductivity of aluminum is about four and a half times that of stainless steel, and it is also cheaper. However, stainless steel tends to be the preferred material for heat exchangers because it is robust, durable, corrosion resistant and, finally, has a better long-term...

The world is constantly changing, don’t get left behind! The latest in mass metrology products is going through what we would call “a new approach” and new technologies are being introduced that far surpass anything you can get locally. Not just because they are imported products or because they are from the USA, but because...

For ordinary users, it is difficult to imagine what is an industrial scale? In fact, when talking about industrial scales, the first thing that may come to mind are large scales, when this is not necessarily true. When it comes to industrial scales, there are many styles and sizes to consider, each one of them...

Welcome to our new edition of First Technology on Cordless Tools, where we share with you information on Cordless tools we have for you. In this edition,  we will mention everything about the Chicago Pneumatic CP8345 series. We will tell you a little about our experience in air angle grinders combined with the convenience and...

Industrial balances, also known as scales, in technical terms are called weighing instruments, which are characterized by measuring in metric units and by their precision at the time of doing so with minimal effort. Currently, in the industry, this instrument is used quite widely, to measure the reception of inputs and raw materials, in the...

One of the biggest problems before acquiring a scale is to know the real value of each unit. So there is a lot of uncertainty when buying a balance or scale. The task of comparing between the great variety of scales and existing measuring tools on the market is quite complex. However, the best products...

As for all tools and equipment, there are multiple options that can be chosen from the wide range offered by the market. In the case of scales, there are many ways to use them and incorporate them into production processes (especially with platform scales used in industry and in the world of production). Therefore, the...

Pneumatic tools are known for being resistant, strong, powerful, robust instruments and work by the action of compressed air which is provided by a pneumatic compressor, which in turn works thanks to a motor that provides the necessary air to be compressed. But the peculiarity of pneumatic tools, in addition to their operating methods, is...

Every time measurements are made with scales, there is fear that something is wrong. For this reason, repetition tasks are carried out to mahe sure the readings are accurate. However it is difficult to define which factor is influencing the scale, apart from the human errors that are always implicit in each task. There are...

For what reason is a digital scale reset or you might want to reset it? We know that scales are the oldest weighing instruments known to man, where their initial appearance had to do with weight comparison, where the first models were analog and currently came to change with the birth of digital technology, improving...

The best tool the market offers, it is neither electric nor pneumatic. One of the most frequent debates is the comparison of the different technologies, since they think that a specific tool can be used for all types of work. But the truth is that the tools that are required for a certain job are...

Through the passage of time, the industrial and productive process has evolved, adapting to the needs of human beings and production requirements, requiring each time to improve processes, in order to increase production and together with it, profitability in the productive processes. At this point, is where the needs in combination with weighing systems (or...

There are many types of scales, this is well known and at First Technology we know it well.  However it is important to differentiate commercial scales from industrial scales, because each one is used in different areas, this because each one of them has different specifications. Commercial scales are used in a generic way in...

When talking about scales, the first image that comes to people’s minds is that instrument held by the blindfolded woman in representation of justice, which holds that iconic weighing instrument that consists of an arm and two plates suspended at the ends which are in perfect balance. However, that is the image of the technology...

“…we are on the brink of a technological revolution that will fundamentally change the way we live, work and interact. In its scale, scope and complexity, the transformation will be unlike anything mankind has experienced before” Schwab 2016 Companies and the industry in general, are continually undergoing accelerated changes, many of them based on the...

Impact wrenches are known by multiple names such as pneumatic wrenches, air wrench, and impact guns. These can be electric or pneumatic and were created mainly for tasks that require torque (such as in drills) or impact force (as in riveting machines) delivered on an output shaft varying its functions depending on the tool and...

What is a scale? In the industrial field, it refers to an instrument or tool (high precision equipment) that is used to weigh or counterbalance and in turn measure the weight or mass of any surface in decimal metric units. And if your company is dedicated to the food, mining, pharmaceutical or manufacturing industries, it...

Mining and humans One of the oldest activities in human history is mining, and to speak of the development that mining has been causing is to immerse yourself in history itself. However, talking about mining is much more than that, it is talking about the history of humanity. Mining is among the oldest and most...

What is ATEX certification? And why do our balances have ATEX certification?   ATEX certification is a requirement for all companies that manufacture electrical equipment that is used in hazardous environments and is intended to be marketed in the European Union. There are many environments that can be considered dangerous or explosive, depending on the...

Pneumatic tools are also known as air tools, they offer many advantages for manufacturing, automotive and aerospace facilities. Why? Well, pneumatic tools are safer to operate and maintain than their power tool equivalents, and they have a higher power-to-weight ratio, allowing a smaller, lighter tool to do the same job. At present there is a...
