To eliminate galvanic corrosion, a housing includes a clad material. The clad material includes an interior metal disposed within an exterior metal. The exterior metal is different from the interior metal. The housing further includes a clad interface and a melt interface. The melt interface includes a layer of hardened flux disposed on a portion of the interior metal.

A spoolable device including a first communication interface, a second communication interface, a power management module, a functional electrical module, and a junction joining each of the above elements together and creating a shared pressure chamber. A method for making a spoolable device comprising welding a functional electrical module to a first portion of a junction box, welding a first communication interface to the first portion of a junction box, welding a power management module to a second portion of a junction box, welding a second communication interface to the second portion of a junction box, and welding the first portion of a junction box to the second portion of the junction box to form a pressure chamber inside the first and second portions of the junction box.

A wheel holding device holding a wheel including an annular-shaped core body and a plurality of free rollers rotatably supported by the core body includes a central member including an outer peripheral part capable of expanding and contracting in a radial direction. The central member holds the wheel with the outer peripheral part of the central member urging an inner peripheral part of the wheel radially outward. The central member may include a chuck, a plurality of bases which are radially movably supported by the chuck and form the outer peripheral part of the central member, and a plurality of urging members which urge the respective bases radially outward with respect to the chuck.

A method for joining first and second axle components is provided. In one example, the method includes forming an aperture in a first axle component that is mounted to a second axle component, where the aperture has a chamfer at one end thereof, inserting an object into the aperture, and resistance welding the aperture while applying pressure to the object so that the object fills the chamfer.

An apparatus and a method for producing strip wound tube products are disclosed. The apparatus includes a winding machine for winding a strip to a strip wound tube and a finishing machine for cutting off pieces of desired length from the strip wound tube and for connecting strip layers in the end sections of the strip wound tube product by way of an joining operation, the finishing machine having a mobile operating head and/or a force decoupling unit.

A manufacturing method for a joint part in which a first metal piece and a second metal piece are joined to each other by performing welding by irradiating a high-energy beam to a joint surface on which the first metal piece and the second metal piece face each other, the first metal piece including a first flow path for passage of a fluid provided at a specific depth from a surface on a side exposed to the high-energy beam, the second metal piece including a second flow path for passage of the fluid provided at a specific depth from the surface on the side exposed to the high-energy beam, and the first flow path and the second flow path being coupled to each other on the joint surface.

A method is provided for fabricating a coolant channel closeout jacket on a structure having coolant channels formed in an outer surface thereof. A line of tangency relative to the outer surface is defined for each point on the outer surface. Linear rows of a metal feedstock are directed towards and deposited on the outer surface of the structure as a beam of weld energy is directed to the metal feedstock so-deposited. A first angle between the metal feedstock so-directed and the line of tangency is maintained in a range of 20-90°. The beam is directed towards a portion of the linear rows such that less than 30% of the cross-sectional area of the beam impinges on a currently-deposited one of the linear rows. A second angle between the beam and the line of tangency is maintained in a range of 5-65°.
