    Motor IP(Ingress Protection) testing and Performance Curve

    Hello, I have several prototype 24v bldc motors need to be tested. Where can I find a service (in the US) to test motor IP rating and generate a performance curve for me? Thanks

    Bosch GPA 24V 750W DC motor Question

    Just curious, what is the typical application of this motor? I have one 900Watt @ 2000 RPM Brushless DC motor rated for 24-32VDC and soon will obtain more in stock. I'm very curious to know what markets I may get involved besiides my current one.

    24-volt battery vehicles?

    Class 8 trucks mainly use 24vdc for accessories and some 12vdc for low amp apps like communication or signaling devices.

    suspended tensioner

    Hello, I would like to know if there is such a tensioner that tensions a belt system by pulling upper belt and bottom belt closer so the tensioner itself will be suspended in between the two pulleys. If it exists, what is it called? The type of belt I'm using is 8-groove serpentine belt. I...

    NOVA bus driveline system

    Correction. The component is between the yoke and a transfer gear box that connects to a diesel engine on the other end.

    NOVA bus driveline system

    There's a donut/flywheel shaped component between the drive shaft yoke and the differential carrier. I believe it's called a damper. I do not know details on how this component works. If anyone has information on such a component, please let me know. I'm also interested in knowing a...

    use power steering line to drive other components

    Thank you all so much for your input. Actually I'm the advocate for setting up a second hydraulic pump dedicated for purposes other than power steering (ex. PTO). My reason is for safety. I would not risk the safety by introducing a component that may become a failure point for the power...

    use power steering line to drive other components

    Is it legal to use power steering supply line to run a hydraulic motor before entering steering gear on a bus? Or to split the line to run a hyd motor as for another option? I'd appreciate any helpful input here.

    Converting SolidWorks to ProEngineer!!!

    I actually just tried elysium's translator, it seems to fix/repair geometry very well. The translator has a built-in healer to fix broken geometry and if the part is too complicated, they have CADDoctor to do the repair (like CADfix). But again, it does not have history/features that I'm truly...

    Converting SolidWorks to ProEngineer!!!

    I am also looking for a converter/translator that could keep the history/features when it's in Pro-E format. No, Pro-E Wirefire does not recognize features/history even when SW saves its file as a Pro-E file as I have found out.

    water cooled battery pack

    Thank you, I did make a request to them an while ago but so far no response from them. Do you by any chance know anything about Exide's molded lead-acid battery that each has cooling ports for coolant to flow in? It seems no members from Exide in the US know anything about it, but yet it was...
