    Traceability software for sub contract suppliers

    Hi All, Thank you for your replies. We do not need serialisation for individual items only down to box level. There is no risk of companies not doing any work and sending parts on as the process after requires the one before so the supplier would be quickly identified as non-conforming and...

    Traceability software for sub contract suppliers

    Hello, Thank you for your reply. I should have mentioned I'm looking for a scalable solution as we will be producing around 250,000 parts. There are roughly 50 parts per box and for each box I need to know when it was processed at each vendor. I was hoping someone might already work for an...

    Traceability software for sub contract suppliers

    Hello all, I am about to start a project to create a shaft with 8 process steps (5 conducted by external suppliers). Each box of parts need to be traceable back to the certificate of each process step. We cannot guarantee first in / first out and each supplier would like to keep a safety stock...

    5w30 Engine Oil

    Thank you for your reply - I have in fact just found the values and was soon to be on my way back to post here. If anyone else is wondering... Density will vary manufacturer to manufacturer but a safe guideline that can be found in the Bosch automotive handbook for 5W-30 engine oil is 860kg/m3...

    5w30 Engine Oil

    Dear All, I am trying to find the density of 5w30 engine oil at 40 deg c and 100 deg c. Manufactures only give the density at 15 degc for the winter oils. I have been searching around for a couple of hours, and thought about calculating the density from the viscosity, but of course I can only...

    Modelling fluid flow of jet as a force in FEA (static structural)

    Please mark this as solved - here's what I did: I created a plane on the back of one bucket and drew a circle to match the area of influence that the jet would have on it. I then extruded just the lines through the surface so that on the front of the bucket there was a surface showing where the...

    Modelling fluid flow of jet as a force in FEA (static structural)

    Dear Eng-tips, I have imported the geometry of a small pelton wheel into ANSYS. I have been tasked with performing FEA, however I am not sure how to model the force effect of the jet? I have the dimensions of the flow (velocity, density, area) and know the force it will be producing, but how...

    Work in Dynamic Sectioning

    I have attached another image to this post highlighting the plane I wish to rotate. http://postimage.org/image/9nvjfkgrv/

    Work in Dynamic Sectioning

    Thank you for your replies. Also please accept my apologies in being so late getting back to you. I decided to go with mtmadalin's answer, however I had trouble creating a new plane. I was able to rotate a verticle plane but not a horizontal plane. In the attached image you can see that I have...

    Work in Dynamic Sectioning

    Dear Members, Been a long time reader, and usually search for what I need, but tonight I can't seem to work it out: I am looking at a part in 'Dynamic Sectioning' view using one of my planes. However I need to create some new internal geometry whilst in this view - you can see this crudely...
