A Safer, More Efficient Way To Get Your Shims Up To The Nacelle!

12/22/2020

What's a Nacelle?
The nacelle of a wind turbine houses the drive train and other tower-top components. It's critical that this drive train is in perfect alignment to insure optimal performance of the wind turbine.

High quality Precision Brand Products slotted shim is the product of choice for this alignment job.

How does the mechanic carry up and then make sure he's picking the correct size 280 feet in the air?
He uses the new Precision Brand Products Up-Tower Shim Assortment!

SpaceX Successfully Launches 2 To ISS!

On Saturday, May 30 at 3:22 p.m. EDT, SpaceX’s Falcon 9 launched Crew Dragon’s second demonstration (Demo-2) mission from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, and the next day Crew Dragon autonomously docked to the International Space Station (ISS). This test flight with NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley on board the Dragon spacecraft returned human spaceflight to the United States.

Demo-2 is the final major test for SpaceX’s human spaceflight system to be certified by NASA for operational crew missions to and from the ISS. SpaceX is returning human spaceflight to the United States, and NASA’s Commercial Crew Program is a turning point for America’s future in space exploration that lays the groundwork for future missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

Upon conclusion of the mission, Crew Dragon will autonomously undock with the two astronauts onboard the spacecraft and depart the Space Station. After jettisoning the trunk and conducting its deorbit burn, which lasts approximately 12 minutes, Dragon will reenter Earth’s atmosphere.
Upon splashdown just off Florida’s Atlantic Coast, Dragon and the astronauts will be quickly recovered by SpaceX’s Go Navigator recovery vessel and returned to Cape Canaveral.
