@EdStainless and @LittleInch - thanks for the responses
Good question on the split orientation, i should have included this in my original question. The split i had in mind would be along the length of the tube. The attached image is close to what i have today. I was thinking of having a water...
Hi Team,
I would like a heat exchanger/water cooled cylindrical section, similar to the attached image, but so that it is split in half i.e can be opened for cleaning/inspection etc...
I would like to understand if you have seen something like this already, before i "reinvent the wheel"...
Hi all,
I have a large HMI control panel that needs to be used at all points along a long conveyor belt. approximately 10 metres. I would like to mount this HMI onto a rail that runs the length of the conveyor, with a linear bearing to slide this HMI up and down the rail (therefore conveyor)...
Good afternoon eng-tip users,
I have a quick question about coatings. Currently we have a steel fixture uswed for holding sheet metal as it gets sprayed with telomer and then baked in the furnance. This fixture becomes heavily coated with Telomer and requires quite abrqasaive cleaning, usually...

Hi kiwitom235
Thanks for your reply, yes the proportionality between the tension and the extension/compression of the cylinder rod was something i was going to take advantage of to feedback to the brake on the coil. As you both say, maybe a load cell is something that would perform better in...
Hi Jboggs,
Thank you for your reply. We have a tug of war in play here, one end of the strand is being pulled through the machine while the other end is wound many times around a core that is feeding the machine. This is a raw wire material we have delivered. So when we have a fresh coil of...
Hi,
This is my first post as eng-tips.com so I hope i have posted in the correct category,
Anyway, I am looking to control the tension in a steel wire that is being unwound from a coil, passes over two pulleys and delivered into a machine. The power for the unwind of the coil is coming from...
