grouting Explanation: Based on: http://www.scheepsdieselrenaud.com/ => Specialiteit ABC, BOLNES, STORK, WARTSILA, SCANIA & VALMET dieselmotoren. Uitlijnen van installaties met laser. Opgieten van motoren en groepen met kunsthars. and http://www.binnenvaartkrant.nl/2/images/uploadkrant/pdf/2005... => OPGIETEN VAN MOTOR MET CHOCKFAST via http://www.finres-sa.com/index_nl.html =>Gezien onze ervaring van meer dan 30 jaar met systemen van epoxy (CHOKFAST) en polyester (DURCEL) kunnen wij u adviseren in de keuze van oplossingen voor het vastzetten en verankeren (GROUTING) van motoren, rails, compressoren, pompen, steenbrekers enz. and http://www.r-f.com/chockfast_grouting_systems.asp I arrived at http://www.chockfast.com/reference.html (be sure to scroll down for a description of the process!) Imo it refers to stabilising equipment by means of a pourable resin. |

Reference: refs Reference information: I asked Claude.ai the following question: which term would be a correct way of referring to pouring resin into an engine (or a part thereof) to stabilize it? chocking? or grouting? it answered: The correct term for pouring resin into an engine or engine component to stabilize it is "potting." Potting is a process where a liquid compound, such as epoxy or resin, is poured into a cavity or around a component to provide support, insulation, or protection from vibration and shock. "Chocking" refers to the use of wedges or blocks to prevent movement or shifting of heavy objects, such as machinery or vehicles. "Grouting" is a term used in construction and masonry, which involves filling gaps or spaces between tiles, stones, or other building materials with a fine cement or mortar mixture. So, when discussing the process of stabilizing an engine or its parts using resin, the appropriate term to use is "potting." see e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potting_(electronics) From the above I deduce that if your parts are electronics related, perhaps "potting" would be a better term -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5285 days (2024-04-12 18:16:41 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- see also (my own): https://beijerterm.com/opgieten (a work in progress, so far from definitive!) |
