Thank you for pointing out the difference in Condition A and C. Basically all I wanted to find out is if 17/7-PH shim stock in Full Hard Temper (Rockwell C41-C48, ASTM A693) is suitable for a simple spring clip without further heat treatment (not a critical application at all). I did get...
I just wanted reassurance that the part will spring back when slightly bent and not conform. I know that 17-7PH in the annealed condition can be formed and then heat treated to CH900 to achieve spring properties but I have not worked with 17-7PH purchased in the full hard condition before. I...
I am making a very simple flat spring clip to hold in a heater. When installed it is just slightly bent. The material I would like to use is 17-7PH full hard. Can I use this material in the full hard condition without further heat treatment? The temperature of the heater will go up to approx...
Our Z-axis is a cross roller slide with a 50K count encoder. In fact in our standard equipment, the head is attached to a load cell to give feed back of the load...the problem is that we have to travel to a slow crawl at the end of the stroke in order to protect from a crash. The air cylinder...
Barry, thanks for your reply. I can't move the pick point because the camera is at a fixed location to view the part (these are surface mount components and flip chip parts with the solder pads on the bottom of the part. the camera looks up and down simultaneously to align the chip to the...
I would like to use a pnuematic cylinder as an air-spring for pick&place? I need to be able to adjust the pressure from as low as 100 grams, up to 10-20Kg. I am looking at using a double actuated Airpel cylinder which has a graphite piston inside of a quartz tube. These are extremely low...
