    Mitutoyo GEOPAK

    Hi All, we recently got a Mitutoyo at work. I have been tasked with developing an output protocol to include company logos etc. I have most of it done, with appropriate tables, and headdata etc. One thing i'm having trouble with is dedicating a page as the last page. The manual has stated that...

    High Pressure Water Blast

    Ok just to clarify, the testing isn't to see if we have pulled a fast one or whether we have met the spec. We have built the machine as per requirement from our client. They have since come to us to request a method of testing the pressure exerted on the part being blasted. But I appreciate that...

    High Pressure Water Blast

    Hi All, We have developed a system for a customer which blasts product at up to 5500PSi. Well atleast that is what the pump can deliver, what we have been asked now is a way of testing the water pressure exerted on the actual part being blasted. Our take on it is that once the water leave the...

    Injection Moulding

    Hi, I have one Arburg injection moulding machine. Currently i have one inadequate chiller tryig to cool the hyraulics. But as our mould become more complex i will need to introduce cooling for the mould. Any tips for what type of cooler i should use for the hydraulics, and what i should use on...

    What Can I Do With An Allen Bradley HMI?

    would pro face and automation direct be fairly easy to use? im new to hmi's. price is not an issue,i would have 4 analogue inputs,possibly 2 analogue outputs for centring of unit.given price is not an issue,would you recommend allen bradley? its an american company and they usually insist on...

    What Can I Do With An Allen Bradley HMI?

    Hi everyone, im just wondering what exactly you can do with an allen bradley hmi? I mean does it have to have a plc connected for inputs,or can the hmi cumpute inputs and conduct calculations? i want to measure a device (repeatedly) for error detection, i need a hmi type interface to allow user...

    Arburg Moulding Machine Supply Spec

    Does anyone know how to spec a supply for an Arburg 270c 400 100?it has a total 29kW load, 55 Amps(Both Stated on Nameplate), im wondering is this spread across three phases? supply 400Volts ac. 16 sq mm cable.on the spec sheet it says electrical connection prefused 63 amps, but that its evenly...

    What size motor do i need?

    30 second cycles continuously, ideally upto speed in a second or so,60 rpm,built in gears will be the preffered option, the load force will be a constant, the part being placed is negligible. yeah its ensuring i have enough torque for start up i need to know. also,what about stopping?

    Festo CPI system

    could anyone help me with information on these festo systems? for example centralized and decentralized systems?it was recommended i use one on for a system invloving a converor belt using a tick tock movement and also to control some cyclinders, pick and place etc, are they good system? whats...

    What size motor do i need?

    yeah, say an rpm of aprrox 60rpm. as it will only have about 30 seconds for the cycle it needs to be up to spped relatively quickly. i'll be using a bevel gearbox as to allow vertical rotation and support to load. imwondering can i figure out the torque required just knowing the load mass(4kg)...

    What size motor do i need?

    Hi, i have to spec a motor, what i need to know is how do i figure out there torque required? it is a vertical shaft, bearing a load of 4kg, load diamter is 100mm. motor run time per cycle is 30 sec, so it needs to start quick, and stop quick. Im limted to a 750W input supply. length of shaft...

    Photovoltaic cells

    Ok ive been doing some research, can I control the maximum peak power solely using labview? Or do I need to create a boost circuit? And dc-dc converter? Dc-ac converter? If I purchased a RIO card for interfacing with labview could I write the algorithm on labview and control from there? I could...

    Photovoltaic cells

    Hey everyone, my boss has recently purchased a PV cell our plant, one day while speaking to him about it i mentioned that these cells could be maximised to ensure that they are working at their peak. he said that sounded like a great idea and he would love me to look into it. the problem is...
