Skid-mounted pumping systems are pre assembled complete pumping stations. Potential configurations are limitless from the simplest to the most sophisticated systems. Electrical components, pumps and piping are all factory assembled, piped and wired.

Metal slat conveyors are conveyors which employ steel slats mounted on roller chain to transport the product.

Sonic welding, also known as ultrasonic welding, is a welding process that applies high-frequency ultrasonic acoustic vibrations to the weld area of two sections held under pressure, in order to create a solid-state weld. Sonic welding is commonly used for joining plastic, particularly to join two dissimilar materials. The ability to join plastic has made this process ideal for applications in various industries, including the computer, electrical, automotive, and aerospace.

Suction hose also called as suction pipes is a hollow tube contrived for suction of fluid from one location so as to be delivered to another. The hose is usually cylindrical in shape and is lighter and more flexible than the multi-layered, reinforced rubber hose. It is abrasion- as well as crush- resistant, and is inert to several agricultural chemicals. EPDM rubber, metal helical wire, or polyethylene helix are used for the fabrication of this hose. Hoses of this type are used in mining, liquid waste handling, construction dewatering, cesspool cleaning, septic handling, agriculture, marine and industrial applications.

Stereolithography (SLA) uses UV energy to cure a liquid resin into plastic, producing prototypes very quickly with an additive process. The SLA machine dissects a design into thin layers (typically 0.004" - 0.006") and scans each layer in a vat of resin. After each layer is complete, the platform lowers into the vat of resin to re-wet the surface and a laser hardens the next layer. Upon build completion, the part is then cleaned and cured. The entire process slowly forms a three-dimensional physical object, bottom to top, from a pool of liquid resin.
