    Self-employed contract design

    Hi all, I've recently left a company where I was working as a design engineer. Shortly before I left the company landed a big contract in the department I was working in. My old boss had a meeting with me on my last day and offered me contract work (probably design for the mentioned project)...

    Self-employed contract design

    Hi guys, Thanks for the info. @zdaso4: I'm in Ireland. We parted company on great terms (nothing quite as dramatic as you speculated!! haha) so there's no issue there. Your other point about not having the same freedom because I don't work there was my main concern. Am I still expect to travel...

    Linear guides, cross-roller type

    Thank you both. I am awaiting a quote from PM bearings at the moment, they have said they'll customise the carrier and rail with dowel holes. The RTS-1525 part is similar to what I had been using so pending price and lead time I'll go with them. I was also in touch with NSK. Thanks for that guys

    Cam profile design

    If you're still there Mike...... After modeling that Cam using the method you outlined I realized I left out an important factor, I have to use a flat follower and I think the current method is for a round follower??? You wouldn't happen to know what adjustments I need to make??? Emmet.

    Cam profile design

    Hi, I'm using a Cam to move a sliding mechanism. The Cam will rotate through 90 degrees moving the slide 20mm. The Cam will be rotated by a rotary actuator moving at constant velocity, therefore the Cam will be in control of the slide acceleration and deceleration. I want the slide to move in...

    Finite Element Analysis, Design Modeler

    Hi, Does anyone know any good tutorials for using ANSYS Design Modeler software. I've been using the tutorials on the University of Alberta website (http://www.mece.ualberta.ca/tutorials/ansys/) and found them quite useful. If anyone could recommend any other good tutorials or video tutorials...

    Robot CAD Download

    Hi all, Does anyone know a good site for downloading 3-axis Cartesian Robot CAD assemblies? I found some good data on meau.com but only for SCARA and multi-axis Robots. Cheers, Emmet.
