pure guess Explanation: abnadeln could perhaps mean removal of asbestos (or other) needles (e.g. "Asbestnadeln) if it's a building with asbestos contamination. Again, I'm only guessing. I've never heard the term. |

peer agreement (net): +1stripping Explanation: also another total guess based on induction stripping with a wire brush? IN the first link it talks about loosening the paint so that it can be (abgenadelt). lets see if I can find another -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-26 21:09:55 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- considering Tom\'s idea - perhaps it is high pressure water blasting -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-26 21:12:31 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- or airblasting? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-26 21:26:36 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hey guys! I posted a message on bau.de and this is the response I got (so far): hier dürfte die Nadelpistole gemeint sein 26.08.02 23:22:14 MET diese kann für Kleinflächen als Alternative zum Sandstrahlen dienen. Ich hab mal eine Abbildung auf den Scanner gelegt. Tja, und wie heisst sie im Englischen? Needlecolt???

grinding/sanding/sharpening/cutting Explanation: Could it be schleifen = sanding/grinding/cutting/sharpening. Maybe the reference site below with pictures will help you along. For example: "...Der Rahmen wird nun durch Abnadeln bzw. Schleifen vom Altanstrich befreit..." and "...Auch die Radsterne werden abgenadelt, eine sehr langwierige Angelegenheit... Good luck!

wire brushing? Explanation: Hi Beth, I found this term hard to pin down in several Google searches. I did find a picture of someone doing it though. Perhaps this may help you limit your search somewhat: Searched the web for verfahren abnadeln OR abgenadelt OR abnadelung OR abgenadelt OR abnadel. Results 1 - 4 of about 5. Search took 0.07 seconds. [PHOTO of the process!] >>Auch die Radsterne werden abgenadelt, eine sehr langwierige Angelegenheit...<< Apparently a power-driven process, and the "hose" looks like a compressed-air hose -- but I can’t tell from the picture or text whether air-blasting or an airtool is involved, such as a steel brush. The lack of a mask on the operator would tend to rule our sandblasting etc. http://www.uef-dampf.de/fahrzeuge/triebfahrzeuge/58311kessel... Also cf: blasting: http://www.jmcnm.co.jp/english/blast/prologue-blast.htm Also cf: Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 25- [Translate this page ] So wurde untersucht, mit welchen Techniken sich der Schutzanstrich wieder entfernen läßt, der im Lauf der Jahre auf eine Dicke von 1,5 Millimeter gewachsen ist.

needle gunning Explanation: Power Tool Cleaning Definition: A mechanical method of surface preparation widely used in industry and involving the use of power sanders or wire brushes, power chipping hammers, abrasive grinding wheels, needle guns etc. Although usually more effective than hand tool cleaning, it is not considered adequate for use under severe exposure conditions or for immersion applications. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-27 08:20:03 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The coltgun wasn\'t too far off ;-) Reference: http://www.blastal.com/blasting.html |
