If we extrude a .125" diameter rod of HDPE and one from UHMWPE, which one is stiffer, or which one will have the larger bend radius? Kevin.

Hello, we are assembling 1.5" OD brass tubing, one end is threaded, into a female threaded brass fitting. (Plumbing application). We want to automate it, by holding the tubing with an air actuated collet check, then spining the collet chuck until the fitting is tightened onto the tubing. We...

Hello MintJulep, In direct contact with an electrically live surface? I don't understand, then why can you touch an oven heating element without getting shocked? Never mind the scorching burn. Kevin.

More information: I am trying to heat water in a coffee pot, with electricity, however we want to have as low a temperature as possible at the heating element and still get the water to 180F or so. We thought that running the cold water through the inside of a hollow heating element would work...

Hello MortenA, How do you heat water with induction? Or can you direct me to a source to learn more? Thank you. Kevin.

Ok, I will try to restate the question. Is it possible to heat water that has a constant flow rate through a metal tube that is an electrical heating element?

What is the best way to heat water fast, like in an instantaneous hot water heater, or a coffee pot? Is it possible to run the water inside of copper tubing that has been heated like the heating element in a dishwasher or oven?

SW2005 SP0.1 Do you think it has anything to do with the "type" of variable in the custom property table? It only accepts "text", "number" gives an error: "invalid value entered for type "number". Watco

Well, I didn't use the DT. I just made a custom property using a global variable: "Total Length". Then linked the note on the drawing to the custom property "Total Length". And after looking at it closer, this does not seem to be working. The value on the note is -3, and the evaluated value...

Hello CorBlimeyLimey, Thank you for the help. One problem has come up though, when the "Total Length" property is displayed in the linked note on the drawing, it displays as a rounded up integer: 4. I would like it to display as the entire evaluated value: 3.755. Do you know how to do this?

How can I display the result of a global variable, which sums the length of a chain made of 3 lines and an arc, on a drawing?

When constructing a Pivot Table, I get the following error "Microsoft Excel cannot make this change because there are too many row or column items. Drag at least one row or column field off the PifotTable report, or to the page position.... What is the meaning of this? I need all of the...

Does anyone know how to not show a data point on a chart (lines) when the data point is zero? The lines connecting data points are going all the way back to zero which is undesireabe. I would rather just not chart the zeroes. Kevin.

We are Solidworks modeling different configurations of a plumbing fitting and would like to calculate the material savings for each different configurations. In order to do so, we need the density of Schedule 40 PVC and Schedule 40 ABS used for plastic injection molding plumbing fittings. Can...

Hello. We just installed a variable speed drive to our 1150 RPM motor. The drive has a digital readout that reads Hz. We can vary this between 0 and 60. How do I know what my resulting RPMs are for the motor? Kevin.

Yes, Mr. Brown. I would like to see a model. Please send it to KHogan@WatcoMfg.com Thank you, Kevin.

Ok, then how do you calculate the minumum minor diameter? So that I may apply it to your formula. The minumum minor diameter is not listed in the handbook.

How do you calculate the minimum pitch diameter of external screw threads as listed in the machinery's handbook, threading section, table 3.
