How many series does Johnson Window Film have?

Johnson Window Film is divided into three series: Johnson Insight Series, Domain Series, and LinkedIn Series. The differences between these films are not significant, except that the LinkedIn Series is a ceramic film, which is the high-end product of Johnson Window Film in the U.S., with higher light transmittance than the other two series. Spectral Selection: U.S. Johnson Window Film uses magnetron sputtering coating technology to deposit rare metals and compounds on the substrate, which has strong control over sunlight. No Signal Interference: Utilizing the global patented technology—TiN magnetron sputtering, an IR ceramic heat-insulating film has been developed that does not cause signal shielding, eliminating the issue of traditional metal films interfering with mobile phone and GPS wireless signals. Fast-Drying Adhesive: U.S. Johnson Window Film has developed DPS fast-drying pressure-sensitive adhesive based on traditional PS adhesive, adding rapid-curing components to reduce drying time to 3 hours, allowing car windows to be rolled down easily after 3 hours of film application. Anti-Reflection: U.S. Johnson Window Film deposits a dense nano-carbon layer on the surface of the metal film coating, creating a composite film that maintains the high heat-insulating performance of metal films while also achieving the low visible light reflectivity of non-metal films.

What Are the Types of Excavators?

Excavator types are as follows: Mini Excavators: Generally refers to excavators with a total weight of 6 tons or less, including 6 tons. Their compact size allows for efficient and safe operation in narrow worksites, making them particularly suitable for confined areas. Medium Excavators: Generally refers to excavators with a total weight of more than 6 tons but less than or equal to 40 tons. These are the most commonly seen excavator types on general roads. Large Excavators: Generally refers to excavators with a total weight exceeding 40 tons, all of which fall under the category of large excavators. They are rarely seen unless during transportation. Users are mostly large mining operations. With their massive size, high-capacity operation, powerful engines, and high-pressure pumps driving advanced hydraulic technology, they feature robust undercarriages and front arms to meet various mining operation requirements. Backhoe Excavators: This type also belongs to the category of large excavators, equipped with powerful engines and high-pressure pumps for advanced hydraulic technology. The bucket is installed in reverse, enabling faster digging speeds in mining operations to enhance efficiency. The characteristic of backhoe excavators is digging downward while moving backward, forcibly cutting through soil.

Is Bosch x6 a fully synthetic engine oil?

Bosch x6 is not a fully synthetic engine oil. Bosch X6 engine oil is a semi-synthetic engine oil. Semi-synthetic engine oil replacement cycle: For driving in most cities in China, semi-synthetic engine oil can be replaced every 7,500 kilometers or once a year. If the city has a lot of dust in the air, very low temperatures (below -20 degrees Celsius), or the car is frequently used for short trips (each drive is less than 8 kilometers), it is recommended to advance the engine oil replacement frequency to every 5,000 kilometers or every 9 months. Introduction to semi-synthetic engine oil: Semi-synthetic engine oil is one type of automotive engine oil. It is made by simply blending mineral engine oil and fully synthetic base oil in a certain proportion, and then adding an appropriate amount of additives. Its purity is close to that of fully synthetic engine oil, but its usage cost is higher than that of mineral oil. It can be said to be a "compromise oil" between mineral oil and synthetic oil.

Why Won't the Car Start Even Though the Battery Has Power?

Reasons why a car won't start: improper fuel quality, lack of antifreeze, or excessive carbon buildup. Aside from improper operation by the driver, it could also be due to a starter motor failure, fuel pump supply issues, injector problems, or sensor malfunctions. These more complex situations require professional attention. However, paying attention to the following aspects during regular use can help avoid these complicated issues. Fuel Quality Issue: During past repairs, some have found water and mud inside the fuel tank after disassembly. Using such contaminated fuel will inevitably damage the car. Therefore, it's essential to refuel only at reputable gas stations. When traveling, you can use a gauze wrap over the fuel nozzle to filter out impurities. Lack of Antifreeze: Some car owners use water or low-quality antifreeze, which can cause the entire cooling system to freeze in extremely cold winter conditions. This can lead to a cracked engine block, rendering the water pump inoperable, preventing the car from starting, and damaging other engine components. Excessive Carbon Buildup Can Also Prevent the Car from Starting: The solution is to frequently drive at high speeds to reduce carbon deposits. Additionally, there's a small trick for starting the car: before turning the key to start, first turn it to the ON position, then back, and then to the START position to ignite. This allows the computer to calculate the water temperature and optimal air intake, making ignition smoother.

Is Engine Oil Seepage Normal?

Minor oil seepage in an engine is generally not a serious issue, but it should be repaired promptly. If there is oil leakage, immediate repair is necessary. Many engines develop seepage over time, which can eventually progress to leakage. Engine seepage occurs due to the aging of rubber gaskets in the engine. Some gaskets in the engine are made of rubber, and prolonged exposure to high temperatures and pressure can cause them to harden and lose elasticity. When rubber gaskets lose their elasticity, their sealing performance deteriorates, leading to engine seepage.
