- Industrial Boilers: used to generate steam for heating or power generation
- Turbines: used to generate electricity in power plants
- Compressors: used to compress gases for industrial processes or to operate pneumatic tools
- Conveyor Belts: used to transport materials and products within factories or processing plants
- Crushers: used to reduce the size of raw materials in mining and quarrying operations
- Separation Equipment: such as centrifuges, filters, and separators, used to separate substances based on size, density, or other physical properties.
