What Kinds Of Research Have You Advised On?* | We take them for granted, but shipping operations would not be the same without the invention of cardboard boxes – how long do you think they have they been around? When Was the Cardboard Box Invented?The cardboard Gift Box was invented all the way back in 1817 in England. The box was simple paperboard and was not corrugated, but it was a box (Kellogg Cereals helped popularize this box in the mid-1800s)! How Has the Cardboard Box Evolved? What Came Before the Cardboard Box?Wooden crates were the predominant means for moving materials prior to the invention of the Round Gift Box. Those wooden crates were (and still are) pretty expensive and hard to replicate on a grand scale though. How Are Cardboard Boxes Made?We could explain how cardboard Lip Balm Tube Boxes are made, but would not you rather watch them get made? Why Do We Need Cardboard Boxes?Cardboard Corrugated Boxes remain one of the simplest ways to move things from one place to another. Paper Bags have been part of trade and commerce for more than centuries. Traditionally cloth and jute bags were used to pack goods in larger quantities during its transfer from manufacturer or farms to retailers and shopkeepers then used the paper bags to distribute smaller quantity goods to end customers. In fact, paper bags are still used by small food retailers like – sweetshop owners, street food vendors, bakers and by small vegetable sellers. With the right apps, a smartphone can do almost anything, but it is also useful to occasionally ditch your phone in favor of a trusty Notebook. Benefits of Using Sticky Notes That e-books have surged in popularity in recent years is not news, but where they are headed – and what effect this will ultimately have on the printed word – is unknown. Are printed Books destined to eventually join the ranks of clay tablets, scrolls and typewritten pages, to be displayed in collectors’ glass cases with other curious items of the distant past? |

Other Information Relevant To Your Expertise As An Adviser* | Marine equipment Every ship or boat needs a comprehensive line up of navigational aid equipment which helps them to travel without losing direction and hope. Marine Mooring Equipment has changed over time. This article briefly looks into various navigational tools that have help men to explore the unknown. From marine radar to autopilot, the oceans have become our safe home. Times have changed, oceans have become another home yet unclear and mysterious. From early explorers who conquered the huge waves in search of mankind, the way humans navigate through oceans and sea has changed. From simple traditional equipment like the Marine Anchor, quadrant, stopwatch, and marine compasses, the navigation system has come a long way. Gone are the days when mariners use to look up the sky and decide the course and destination. Transversing oceans and seas in the most undesirable conditions of the sea has always been a challenge. With the advancement of technology marine navigation has changed its face. Oceans have become highways for international trade operations. Traveling in boats or ships that aren’t well equipped to face the waves are dangerous. Major accidents in the deep waters have occurred due to the lack of reliable Marine Deck Machinery. A nautical chart is one of the main instruments of navigation. A chart is a graphical representation of Marine Pump and coastal areas around it. It can show water depths, seabed features, detailed coastal and other important data. The latest technology data storage cards are capable of showing 3D images of different sections of bed which can be conveniently viewed at any angle. Celestial navigation systems were used to measure the height of any object in the sky. They were also used for calculating the angular distance between two objects. Examples of these units are back staff, the staff of the Cross and quadrants. The timer is also used by sailors to measure the height of the bodies above the horizon. A calendar is considered as an important asset to add to marine navigation systems. They are used in marine chronometer which is used for determining the prime meridian or longitudinal line. Another device that was used in the mid 18th century is the Sextant. Sextant is a popular navigation tool that is still being used. Sextant is integrated into the telescope and the angular extent and determine the latitude and longitude. Sextant allows celestial objects to be measured relative to the horizon, rather than relative to the instrument. This allows for excellent precision. Unlike backstaff, backstaff helps to measure the altitude of a celestial body, particularly the sun or the moon, sextant allows direct observations of stars. This permits the use of the sextant at night when a backstaff is difficult to use. Sextant doesn’t depend upon electricity or GPS, unlike the modern navigation equipment. Therefore, sextants are still used in all boats. For these reasons, it is considered an eminently practical back-up navigation tool for ships.The weather vane was used in olden days on all ships. Weather vanes indicated the direction of the wind for the sailors to help them maneuver better over the waves. Weather vanes are no more in use on any ship or boat these days. Shipping companies and boat owners across the globe are implementing innovative and better ways to transverse the ocean and sea. With various new maritime laws, owners of ships and boats need to follow the law, security, and operational requirement. Many companies like Maritronics provides a comprehensive fleet of Marine Outfitting navigation systems useful for anyone who owns a yacht to a container ship. The global positioning system or GPS is a boon for maritime activities. With a GPS compass, anyone can determine the exact location of the ship thereby assisting the crew to sail safe or help in a distress situation. The age-old method of charts and maps are no more on the deck. The latest Multifunction Chart Displays gives you detailed information about the vessel to the mariner. Displays navigation sensors, weather receivers, radars, GPS, plotters can be effectively integrated into a navigation screen. It can serve as a center panel that can do all sorts of features to provide the best navigation experience in the ocean. This useful tool can provide users with improved Fishermen can now locate fishes using Marine Light equipment for efficient fishing. This helps in the bloom of the fishing industry, allowing them to fish sustainably without hindering the aquatic life. Sailors, mariners, passengers or fishermen, they are all provided with instruments of navigation and marine equipment to increase security and safeguard everyone onboard Today, Maritronics, one of the leading dealers of maritime navigation equipment states that navigation is most electronic and computer-based now. The use of satellite communication to determine ship navigation as well as the geographical orientation helps the ship to sail safely. The Marine Auxiliary Machinery system provides information regarding possible collision thus making every ship journey safe and pleasurable. Navigation instruments have come a long way since the days when sailors relied on celestial bodies and the wind to reach their destination. |
