I never thought about vulcanizing directly on to my substrate. Guess I just haven't had a need before. I can't find much info for suppliers in my area, but I may contact my machine shop.
Also might just form this:

and use fasteners.
Fortunately, this...
I looked briefly at metal backed pads, but didnt find anything OTC that looked usable. Any suggested suppliers? This is a small qty, like less than 3ft total, .5" wide or so...
I have an aluminum cradle with a toggle clamp that holds a cylinder in place. The cylinder gets a fastener torqued, so this cradle must keep the cylinder from rotating.
instead of increasing the toggle clamp force (and risking deforming the cylinder) we lined to the cradle with a thin strip of...
bob-
The UUT is relatively light and the table/fixture is rather "serious".
I do not have a problem with it, and we do not see failures. We are moving right along, but I was able to talk upper management into giving me time(money) to at least look at it- I would like to learn something if...
I have done a modal analysis, and of course there is movement in all 3 directions.
However, since the axis in question is the control, the closed loop nature of the table handles this quite well and eliminate the increased amplitude/accelerations of the resonance.. so i was suprised to see some...
we recently ran a sine sweep and several random sweeps on a new vibration fixture to verify that we can pass through the various excitations frequencies of the fixture and still meet the customer req for deviation from expected input data.
We used a tri-ax accelerometer as our control, and the...
I need to add texture to an aluminum surface before black anodizing to reduce reflectivity in an optical system. For prototypes I just noted "sand blast" but I need an actual (MIL perferred) spec for this process. The machine shop wasn't much help.
Any thoughts? At least maybe a...
I have an old (1979) drawing calling out a:
SPEC 13197 ABRASIVE BLAST TYPE 1
And I am trying to find a spec that is similar. Essentially we are sand blasting an aluminum (6061-t651) surface before we anodize it for reduced reflectivity in an optical system.
I have a bunch of approx 40" long 6061 U channels that I need a profile cut out of. I plan to cut slots into a large .25" steel plate and use fixture clamps so all the pieces will be located in relation to each other closely, and so I can do several pieces during one run.
My question is, how...
I have been using an ATOS scanner on and off for a year for various things but I finally have a need to bring the data into a true solid model (or at least surface model). I have Solidworks Scan to 3D, but have very mixed results getting from the seemingly good mesh in GOM software to a solid...
It actually crashes before it even runs- even trying to edit it I get all these memory errors. very odd.
Handle, thanks I just downloaded the file and am going to look at it.
Any comments on launching SW functions from a general VB program?
another option I am entertaining is just writing the code in VB, and accessing SW objects. but NOT being a software engineer I am not sure how to do that, (I am guessing I need to "load" the SW library from my VB program, etc).
Any links to snippets that might show how this is done? I can...
Although multi-select would be nice, I probably do not need it.. to just be able to fumble around in a directory structure clicking "add" until I have all the files I want, since I might not have them in the same directory.
btw, the macro on that 2nd link doesnt work. It crashes and says my...
