Thanks that worked. Without an IT guy in-house, this site and the internet are our best solutions. Thanks again, Ray Every once in a while the voices in my head have good ideas.

NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 Driver version 8.1.6.4 Thanks Every once in a while the voices in my head have good ideas.

Whether 1 or several drawings, both part, assembly and idw are open, the last "file" that I close from my session stays on the screen. Kind of like a "wallpaper". I can go to the icons and open other drawings and move forward. Just not sure whty the last drawing stays on the screen? IV 2009...

You can also drive certain functions, such as length, from a spreadsheet. Thus, the model would update to the new length. Every once in a while the voices in my head have good ideas.

You may want to consider if the "load" is going over center, a system that will not allow the dumper to speed up. I'd prefer hydraulics over anything that has a chain. I can put a fuselink in the system to eliminate a run-away synerio. Just my opinion. Ray Every once in a while the voices...

I would look at the screw conveyor with a coated auger and sides. I beleive that anytime you have to lift something "overhead" there are always chances for accidents. Of minimal value, but wouldn't the heat and humidity be higher at the "top" of the hopper. Storing 3 days supply on the...

Thanks to all for the help. Our vendor was able to balance the pulley. I believe the "dificulty" was in the DOM tubing to begin with, as I tried a method of checking how true the material was, as posted by MFGENGGEAR, and I was pleased/unpleased to find out that it was out about .010" And at...

The "hubs" / journal ends are seperate from the main body of the pulley and the "initial" balancing of the pulley. The assembly will be balanced as a unit after the body is balanced, as the body consists of ~95% of the mass. The journals are a bolt on part, with the (4) bolt holes being equally...

I have an application where we are using 3-1/2" DOM steel tube to create rollers for a web handling machine. THe issue is we are "attempting" to have the roller dynamically balanced and are having issues. The RPMs are up to 3100 RPM, and in our clculations we go through 2 critical speeds. The...

I have a similar problem. Does the method mcgvr present allow the "components" to be more than just individual lines in the AutoCad drawing? We manufacture web handling equipment and when the customer wants a Autocad drawing it gets messy. Our machines have 4,000 to 7,000 parts. Thanks Ray...

I'm looking for a site to get a 215 C-face motor 3d drawing. Anyone know of such a place? Thanks Ray Every once in a while the voices in my head have good ideas.

I have an application for a unwinder for the web industry. The conveyor belt (20") wide engages the mill/parent roll of material (40" od) to unwind the product. I need to unwind at 2000 feet per minute and I have hesitations about the "proper" crown for the pulley for tracking. The conveyor...

The duty cycle is up to 8 times per minute to go from 500 FPM to 2000 FPM. We run at the high speed (2000 FPM) from anywhere between 1/2 second up to 22 seconds, depending on finish roll length. Also, to answer DVD, I was scheduled to go to Oklahoma for the seminar, but this project trumped my...

I work for a web converting company and we need to unwind "mill rolls" at 2000 feet per minute. There are 2 primary methods to "drive" the roll (55" wide x 40" dia x 2800 #s) either core/chuck driving and belt driving. The core/check is equating to about 100 HP as we need to go from 500 fpm to...

We've just loaded a new computer with Inventor 10 and the text does not appear in drawing files. Same as in older threads. Tried the Microsoft update removal that the old thread refernced. Can NOT remove that update. Tried the fix through AUTODESK, could not run them. Went back to AUTODESK's...

I have placed the files in the requested area. We use Inventor 10 if that would cause any issues? Thanks for your assistance. The area of issue is "deriving" the part. If you have any information on that subject it would be appreciated. Raymond Every once in a while the voices in my head...

Can you derive a sheet metal part? I have (2) formed "C" sheet metal components with bias cuts on the mating ends. I need to make the (2) into (1) part to enfold and cut on our waterjet. Thanks Raymond Every once in a while the voices in my head have good ideas.

The text after a dimension,ie. 2.559 (2X), the (2X) does not show up. It used to up until last week, not sure what happened? It is manually put in by me with the text command after selecting a dimension. Help please. Thanks Raymond Every once in a while the voices in my head have a good idea.

Scope, schedule, budget, select any two. Or, fast, cheap or good, select any two. Every once in a while the voices in my head have a good idea.

Is there a way to have a component be present based on a spreadsheet? Example a gearbox being either a left-handed model or if the spreadsheet dictates, a right-handed model. Note that the 2 models are different and not just a mirror of each other. Thanks in advance. Raymond Every once in a...
