C-Arms is medical imaging device that is based on X-ray technology and can be used flexibly. The name is derived from the C-shaped arm used to connect the X-ray source and X-ray detector to one another.

The global oil & gas accumulator market is expected to grow significantly in coming years, despite recent plummeting of crude oil market. With an increase in crude oil prices, the drilling activities across the globe are expected to pick up pace, resulting in an increase in the global oil & gas accumulator market.

Biodegradable packaging provides natural and easily degradable protection when used mainly for the presentation and packaging of the products from the moment the production process begins until the product is administered or consumed. Biodegradable packaging significantly differs from the conventional non-biodegradable packaging. Biodegradable packaging degrades easily and quickly and thus, usually does not require the help of an external catalyst for degradation. Biodegradable products are usually land filled than that compared to that of the non-biodegradable conventional products. Depending on the choice of the materials used in the manufacturing of biodegradable packaging the properties, consumer attributes and appearance of the product packaging varies. Biodegradable packaging sector is a small segment which represents a merger percentage of the packaging industry. The global biodegradable packaging has now moved on towards more advanced and efficient packaging. A decade ago, biodegradable packaging was not known to have any real significance. However, recently biodegradable packaging has become an integral part of the global packaging market. The rising consumer awareness towards biodegradable packaging has led to the tremendous growth of the overall market.

Aluminum is one of the most abundant metals found in the earth's crust. Aluminum's properties such as low metal density and its ability to resist corrosion make it the most favorable metal among the end-users. It is silvery white in color and be molded into very thin sheets having high strength and durability. Aluminum finds its application across many industries such as transportation, construction, packaging, consumer durables, electrical, machinery and equipment among others.

Calcium oxide also known as lime is caustic, alkaline and crystalline in nature.It is synthesized by decarbonation of limestone. Most frequently occurring forms of calcium oxide are quicklime and hydraulic lime. It is a key ingredient in cement and biodiesel production. The end user industries of calcium oxide include petroleum, building & construction, steel, soda ash, refractories, bio-fuel, paper & pulp and chemical industries.

Mobile work platforms that can be used by workers and technicians etc to physically or manually reach inaccessible areas are known as aerial work platforms (AWPs). These platforms are supported by lifting mechanisms; usually cranes or vehicle-mounted equipment. AWPs are widely used in construction and mining industries, owing to the nature of work, complexity in structural design and elevation. AWPs are also utilized for maintenance and repair activities of high tension power lines, disaster management operations and in defence sectors. Incorporation of safety features, ease of handling, and manoeuvrability are some of the features driving the growth in the AWPmarket.

Variable frequency drives are extensively used devices meant for controlling electrical energy utilization at optimum cost. These are also called variable speed drives, adjustable speed or frequency drives, AC drives, and inverters. Previously, valves and slats were used to control the flow of fluids in electric motor drives which were energy intensive. Variable frequency drives help to establish an efficient mode of controlling the electrical load. Variable frequency drives (VFD) are the most effective and efficient motor controllers in the industry today. Modern VFDs are affordable, provide smooth motor acceleration, are reliable, reduce power supply problems in the facility, and have flexibility of control. Further, the use of VFD brings the total system cost down because of the elimination of various system components which are required for valve control. Variable frequency drives are also used when three phase motors are needed to be operated from single phase power so that there is minimum wastage of power.

Industrial pumps find application in various industries and play an essential role in moving an assortment of fluids from one location to another. Industrial pumps come in a variety of shapes, sizes and capacities. Industrial pumps are broadly segmented as centrifugal pumps (also called roto-dynamic pumps) and positive displacement pumps. Centrifugal pumps comprise axial, mixed-flow and radial types. Positive displacement pumps include piston, screw, sliding vane and rotary lobe types. Conformance to performance standards and reliability of these pumps is very crucial. For instance, pump failure in a cooling system can result in overheating and substantial damage to equipment.
