Hello, and thanks in advance for reading.
We have parts that are made from thin (0.003" and 0.004") Inconel X-750. This material is heat-treated, but we have no inspection criteria other than time/temp charts due to the difficulty in testing hardness of material this thin. There is a lab we...
Hello,
I'm working on a project where we have a permanent magnet motor/generator...the stator and rotor are components that we integrate into our machine. The rotor is comprised of magnets with a carbon fiber outer sleeve. The vendor has given the following material information to us:
CFRP...
I have what I think should be an easy problem to fix, but I am an ME whose controls experience unfortunately is confined to a former employer's proprietary language, and have only minimal experience with typical commercial PLC's
As part of a system we're developing, there is a purchased control...

In BTH-1-2017, Section 3-1.2, there is this language about lifting magnets:
"The loads used in the design of the structural and mechanical components of a lifting magnet shall be derived based on the maximum breakaway force of the...

A customer of ours asked us to look into something for them. They have a number of large presses. The presses have large bases at either end, tie rods connecting the bases, and a large hydraulic cylinder which creates a rather large separating force.
They infrequently experience failures of...
i've been scouring the internet but have not found info on the exact scenario i am dealing with. I have a drum which rides on a central shaft. The hubs that ride on the shaft move axially along the shaft up to .5" due to expansion of the drum, so there is relative motion between the hubs and...
Hi All,
First, if this question should be somewhere else, please let me know...i am new to this forum.
I'm doing work for a customer on a piping system upgrade. The system supplies chilled water (~60 F) from an open tank to molding machines, and returns the water to a partitioned side of the...
