The U.S. military announced Monday that, by the end of the week, it will send 5,200 active duty troops to the southwest border, as well as helicopters and heavy equipment to build new barriers, to meet a request from the Department of Homeland Security to augment resources in anticipation of the arrival of two caravans of migrants currently in Mexico
The deployment of active duty service members was triggered by President Trump's remarks last week that he wanted the military to get involved in dealing with the caravan of migrants from Central America
On Monday, Trump, who has made the caravan and immigration a top issue ahead of the midterm elections, tweeted that the caravan of migrants included "Many Gang Members and some very bad people" and that they would not be allowed to enter the United States unless they went through "the legal process"
"This is the invasion of our country and our Military is waiting for you!" he added
In announcing the deployment, the head of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) cited concerns over the migrant caravans as reasons why his agency was adding 1,000 personnel along the border and requesting assistance from the Department of Defense
McAleenan said the caravan in Mexico now numbers 3,500 people and cited a second group of 3,000 that has become a concern because it has had violent interactions with security personnel as it attempted to enter Mexico Sunday
"We want to be ready for that," he said. "We think this opportunity to harden our ports of entry, to be ready for mobile deployment between ports is a better way to prepare for the potential arrival of a large group like this
" Gen. Terrence O'Shaughnessy, the commander of U.S. Northern Command, told a Washington news conference that 800 soldiers from Fort Campbell and Fort Knox in Kentucky were already en route to Texas as the first wave of Operation Faithful Patriot
"I think the president has made it clear that border security is national security," said O'Shaughnessy
"That's the direction we are given. That's the direction we are marching to. Our orders are very clear
We are engaged and here to support CBP. We are going to secure the border." He described the 5,200 troops to be deployed as just "the start of this operation" that could be adjusted as needed
According to O'Shaughnessy, the active duty troops will help "harden" the border using the Army Corps of Engineers and construction units that will build vehicle barriers and fencing
Like the 2,100 National Guardsmen already deployed in a similar mission, the active duty troops will not carry out law enforcement duties, since that is prohibited by the federal law kn9own as Posse Comitatus
"Everything that we are doing is in line with and adherence to Posse Comitatus," said O'Shaughnessy
As part of a 45-day mission, the active duty forces will begin arriving in ports of entry in a support role and then move onto other support projects like construction of temporary housing for Customs and Border Protection personnel, medical support and use helicopters to transport CBP officers to hard to reach areas along the border
The helicopter units will also use their sophisticated equipment "to spot, identify groups and rapidly deploy CBP personnel where they are needed
" Northhcom has already begun pre-positioning gear to the border area. "We have enough concertina wire to cover up to 22 miles, already deployed already to the border," said O'Shaughnessy
"We have additional concertina wire that we can string, with over 150 miles available
" About 1,800 active duty forces are planned to be sent to Texas; 1,700 to Arizona and 1,500 to California said multiple U
S. officials. The specific states were selected to match the support requirements made by Customs and Border Protection
Last week, in an exclusive interview with ABC News, Vice President Mike Pence would not rule out the option of closing down the border ahead of the midterm elections
Asked if the president is mulling an executive order to stop all immigration at the border, Pence said: "What we need to do is secure our border
The president will take steps to do that. But we also need to reform our laws." McAleenan denied that the deployment of additional CBP and U
S. military personnel was triggered by American political concerns. "This is a law enforcement operation from CBP 's perspective," he said
"And we partner with DOD all the time to help secure our border." Last Friday when news of the deployment of active duty troops was first reported, officials had said that as many as 800 to 1,000 forces might be sent to the border
A U.S. official said that number was an initial estimate and that as planning developed the numbers increased

OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness Solution) | ICP DAS - Duration: 4:16.
Hi everyone, my name is John Pan, and I'm from International Sales Marketing
Division of ICP DAS. Today, I'd like to introduce our new OEE solution.
As you know the 3 main factors to achieve OEE
which are Availability, Performance and Quality, this is also why we called A.P.Q.
It could be applied to the production line in the factory or independent
division which helps the factory not only reduce production capacity losses
due to production down time equipment maintenance costs and product quality
issues, but also enhance production capacity and performance.
Here comes the calculation formula of OEE, which is Availability X Performance X Quality,
and we shall explain more with more detail in the video later.
Architecture of OEE: Through sensors to collect the data of front-end devices
and transmit the data via I/O modules and have the data display on the touchpad.
Single stack light: feedback the status on the equipment by Stack light.
Green light stands for running normally, yellow light stands for pause or something goes wrong,
and the red light stands for stop or emergency situation is happening.
tSL-P4R1: this module is for collecting and transmitting the status of stack light.
WISE-7160: in this demo kit, WISE-7160 is responsible for
simulating the actual production line status.
DL-10: it's a sensor for you to measure temperature or humidity during
the production process.
M-7084: it's a module for you to connect with your on-site counter or encoder in
equipment and gather data.
TPD-703: this 7" touchpad helps you to display all the data and figures
collected by the sensors and margining still in your equipment as well as the
instant OEE figure calculation.
So how are these figures from A.P. Q. being collected by using ICP DAS products?
Well, we actually collect these figures based on different modules. Which are..
A (Availability): Actual working now is estimated by working hours times
100%, which is to collect various status of on-site equipments
via stack light, such as the length of time during normal and shut down operation.
P (Performance): which is, the ratio of the default
manufacturing speed of the production equipment and the actual manufacturing
speed. It only indicates the speed of manufacturing, regardless of the quality.
In this scenario, the figures generated by the counter represents the number of
products produced in the production line. Each round represents one product is
being produced. M-7084 module is mainly for collecting the figures from
the counter installed on the equipment.
Q (quality): is the radius number of good
products in our products as each production line has different definition
of good products, here we use the measurement of temperature and humidity
taken by DL-10 as an indicator of good products.

Four Pass Loop in Maroon Bells Wildernes: Featuring Enlightened Equipment Revelation Quilt - Duration: 1:01.
Hey good morning just waking up here.
It was kind of a chilly night.
I'm testing out the Enlightened Revelation quilt
It's kind of my favorite piece of new gear right now
It's so adjustable!
So we have the bottom here and you can cinch it all the way up.
You can stick your legs through this bottom hole and walk around camp.
Let in some air if you need to or zip this up and keep it all warm and cozy all night
With a regular sleeping bag it's kind of stuck into one thing.
It's really cool and I love the color combinations on this one.
It was so fun to go online and customize the whole thing.
Alright we're gonna head out now after we pack this guy up!
