Hi I have a small UK Based Sub-contract Engineering Business that carries out Design, Machining & Fabrication to various industries including Nuclear. We currently have 50 employees and our current ERP system is now not suitable for our needs. So we are looking for a new system that can carry...

Thanks again for the replies all What i would say is from our position the drawings were clear to us that they were Fabrication drawings and the holes were to be to the Fabrication tolerances and only where they had stipulated machining symbols were we too machine these as this is just what...

Thanks for the replies all. I suppose the root cause of this issue is what's the correct answer to this question :- Q. If a fabrication drawing on a structure with PFC ,plates etc has dimensioned holes on it i.e 4 x 18Dia holes , and then a tolerancing table like the attached then would you...

Hi Many thanks for the replies. CheckerHater I tend to agree it wasn't clearly specified so what they are now asking for is unreasonable, I'm not familiar with ISO 8015 to be honest can you clarify what this Standard is called ? Jeff

Apologies i meant BS8888

Hi We are manufacturing a fabricated frame to a customers supplied drawing and they are now highlighting that the holes should be put in to machined tolerances rather fabrication tolerances as we had assumed and priced. The holes themselves don't have specific machining symbols associated to...

Hi Kingnero Thanks for the reply I'm not really sure what the Synergic part does on a Welder , but i thought it has the capability to adjust Parameters like Arc length as you weld to assist you rather than it presets them but i may be wrong. I think my client just wants to know exactly what...

Hi I am wondering if anyone has an example of a Synergic WPQR & WPS that they don't mind sharing? A problem has arisen where we have submitted Mig/Mag WPQR & WPS for a job and the client has now seen that they were done by a synergic welding machine and because they don't like automated...

Hi Thanks for the reply I must admit i haven't heard of this method before and although i really like it i can maybe see a couple of issues with our construction namely 1) Our Joins could be as much as 700mm down into a sheet so would need a bespoke machine setup to be able to perform this...

I'm looking for some help with selecting the correct riveting procedure for a project I'm working on. We are making some Stillages from 2.5mm Galvanised Steel to hold Scaffold Metal pipes. The stillages are approximately 3m long by 0.8m x 0.8m in size and i have attached a picture of an end of...

Ok now that I've got your attention I'm looking for some help with selecting the correct riveting procedure for a project I'm working on. We are making some Stillages from 2.5mm Galvanised Steel to hold Scaffold Metal pipes. The stillages are approximately 3m long by 0.8m x 0.8m in size and i...

Hi Bimr Many thanks for the answer , that makes perfect sense from what you have said.

Hi We are having trouble with a couple of Effluent Tanks where holes are appearing in the Large Mild steel Tanks as per picture below. These tanks are 5m high and are 4 panels high and its only the top panel that seems to be a problem and only in certain areas around the tank. We are trying to...

Forgot to say i'm using Project 2016 on 365

Hi Quite new to project so this might be an easy answer We have 5 separate Projects on the go , i want to now create a Weekly summary of these to show our client progress but on the summary I might not want to show him all the tasks on that project only specific ones . I have tried creating a...

Hi Thanks for the numerous replies , apologies i didn't make it clear but we Do actually need the conical Holes. Sounds like we just need to find a perforater who can help us maybe although all the ones i've talked to thus far say its not something they can do :( chris

We have been asked to manufacture a Filter for the Waste Water Industry , something we do quite often. The Filter is made from perforated sheet & conical in shape. Basket perforation dims are roughly 200 i.d small end 250mm I.d big end 590 mm high Sheet is 4mm 316 st/st Pitch of...

Hi I'll start off by saying i don't think there is an easy answer to this but thought i would throw it out to the community just in case anyone has a solution i hadn't considered yet. We have a large Pipework Assembly that we have modelled ( see attached file) Each Colour of pipe is itself an...

We have a project where we need to manufacture some Pipework brackets from Mild Steel. We therefore need to calculate the load that the pipework will apply to the brackets and this is where we need some help if possible. I have attached the loads the Pipework Designer has specified to enable me...

Thanks For all your replies
