looslib, We would like to track from initial request through ECR and ECN with approvals in each stage.

We are looking to redesign our manual ECN process. Can anyone recommend any good ECN software packages?

Has anyone heard of any success stories with Active Noise Cancelation? This is basically using the same type of technology as is used in the Bose noise cancelling headphones but in an open shop environment. A microphone picks up the noise of a machine or machines and the noise is then processed...

Did you ever consider a diaphragm valve? They are not a quarter turn to open and close so although it takes a few more cranks on the wheel to operate it won't be quite as hard to operate. Check out www.engvalves.com . Their Dia-Flo valves will probably do the trick. Good luck!

That's what I thought. Thanks a lot!

I am trying to settle a dispute and can find nothing in the machinery's handbook or online to support or deny either side of this issue. In high tolerance machining, temperature changes in your material can make a difference. When a piece of metal is heated it expands. How does this affect the...

Is it possible to export a Bill of Materials to a tab delimited text file for improting into Excel? Thanks, Dblcrona

kenvlach, I have some doubts about our plater as well. If I were to send some samples of our plated parts to another plating vendor, would they be able to tell if it was done incorrectly? Ken

My plater has recommended that we try a yellow Chromate Conversion coating instead of the clear Chromate Conversion coating that we are currently using. Does anyone have any experience with yellow vs. clear and know how much more corrosion resistant the yesslow is?

After doing some research on White Rust, I have come to the conclusion that my parts must be gathering condensation at some point during the process after plating. When they come back from the plater they are in open bins stacked on a skid and shrink wrapped. If they gather any condensation, the...

We have several of our parts Zinc plated. We have been finding that many of them have a powdery coating on them. Screw threads on these parts get packed full of this powder. Is this caused by the Zinc plating process or could this be caused by something else after they are plated. Our plater...

I found the solution to my o-ring installation problem. Our old mandrels were made of aluminum with a 5 degree taper. I had our tool room make up a new mandrel from Teflon with a 10 degree taper. The steeper angle makes it dificult for the o-ring to roll during installation.

I have an application where I need to install a 1.5" diameter o-ring on the OD of a threaded end cap. The end cap is about .38" thick and has a recessed area for the o-ring which lies between an external thread and a lip. We currently use aluminum tapered cones with a recess on the large end to...

CorBlimeyLimey, I tried that but when I select the feature to dimension it, it still shows up as two seperate dimensions. Dblcrona

Is it possible to dimension an angel x distance chamfer with a leader note instead of an angle dimension and a distance dimension? Thanks, Dblcrona

1. That works great. Thanks a lot. 2. I already tried to delete and re-dimension it but it put it back in the same place. What do you mean by changing the selection order in the model? Thanks, Dblcrona

I have two questions about the relocation of dimensions in drawing mode. 1. How can I move a model dimension from one view to another? 2. How can I move a model dimension to a different location within the same view? For example: I have a view which shows 2 fillets which are the same feature...

Thanks a lot. That's just what I needed. Dblcrona

I want to use the revolve command to create a shaft with 2 snap ring grooves. To do this I sketch half of a profile of the shaft and revolve it around a centerline. When I dimension the sketch is there a way to create a diameter dimension rather than just a radius dimension? Can I do this in the...

Is it possible to create custom icon menus that point to macros? Dblcrona
