Lorin Highlights Anodized Aluminum for Architectural Applications
Muskegon, MI- Lorin Industries, Inc., the global industry leader in the innovation and production of coil anodized aluminum, highlights its anodized aluminum for architectural applications.
Lorin's coil anodizing process builds an anodic layer from the aluminum, bonding it to the surface at the molecular level, thus protecting the aluminum from the elements. The anodized aluminum will not chip, flake, peel, or corrode and also resists scratching. With a Mohs Hardness score comparable to sapphire, and corrosion resistance that leaves the metal unaffected by salt and air, coil anodized aluminum provides durable beauty that cuts maintenance costs while providing added environmental benefits. All of these benefits make the material ideal for your architectural needs.
Coil anodized aluminum can be made in numerous colors. For example, for exterior use, Lorin can match most any natural metal look, including shades of zinc, steel, titanium, copper, gold, brass, bronze, and natural aluminum by using inorganic dyes or metal fines added into the pores of the protective anodic outer layer.
Continuous coil anodized aluminum from Lorin has been featured in award winning architecture all around the world. The Ito tower in Amsterdam won the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize and features Lorin coil anodized aluminum done with Hunter Douglas panels. Additionally, the 100 Above The Park tower in St. Louis, featuring panels made from Lorin anodized aluminum, was awarded the 2nd best building of the year in the Single Skin Panels design category in 2022.
Other examples of Lorin Anodized Aluminum in architecture include: the Louisiana Caesar's Superdome in New Orleans, the US Olympic Paralympic Museum in Colorado Springs, the Las Vegas City Center in Nevada, the Youth Olympics Games towers in Nanjing, China, and the Gyeongju World Expo Tower in South Korea.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
