I am looking for the American equivalent or something close to 56NiCrMoV7. Any help would be appreciated.

Machine acceleration/deceleration is minimal and not even a factor to bother with for my purposes. I don't see how I can just add up the numbers. The problem is calculating the distance every time you peck, you retract all the way out of the hole and then back in. That distance will increase...

I am looking for a formula to calculate the time of a peck drilling cycle. I have several deep holes to drill in a job I am quoting. I am looking for a formula that I can enter in these variables: hole depth, peck size, drilling feed rate, Rapid feed rate, clearance amount. This cycle retracts...

Also the spline is useless because it gives me 2d geometry when I need it to be 3d (along the cylinders surface).

Thanks for the help so far. Ive attached the type of part/file I am dealing with.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=b0332aee-475c-4f48-96dc-bd11751759ac&file=7_LA_innenring.stp

I have been sent a .step file from a customer originally exported from Catia. The part is fairly simple. It is a cylindical object, similar to a heavy walled pipe. It has slots machined radially around the circumference of the part. These slots appear to have 3 dimensional geometry in that they...

I have two simple parts that are tapered (male/female). I am trying to mate them in an assembly. Once I get them mated concentric, what is the next step to get them to mate - think machine arbor in spindle. Thanks for your help!

Electrical is not my speciality, so please help me out on this one. I am looking to purchase this LED (http://tinyurl.com/3v48f9p). I have a 12 volt DC power source. What size and type of resistor do I need for this LED? Thanks.

Tried copying and pasting from word, quality is still poor.

I am trying to insert a picture into SoildWorks while drafting for use in the title block. I have my company logo in .jpg, .psd and .png. Regardless of which format I insert, the image quality is very poor, the colours are off (faded) and it appears pixelated. Any suggestions or settings you...
