Talking About Industrial Machinery

Hello, my name is Marley Johnston. When I was growing up, I spent a lot of my free time exploring industrial machinery. I was fascinated with the way the machinery operated. I also loved to read about all of the different supplies used throughout the process. Over the years, I started researching common machinery fail points and repair practices. I decided to create this site to explore this topic in great detail with you all. I hope to touch on all of these topics and more in my exploration of industrial machinery. Please feel free to visit anytime. Thank you.

Thread Gages: What To Know

Posted on September 25, 2019

Working inside an industrial facility, you come into contact with all types of machines and tools. You may work daily with milling machines, hydraulic cylinders, or laser-cutting machines. However, most, if not all, industrial facilities also use tiny components and tools for daily work, such as screws and gages.
