Hey there,
Working on a project where we need to cool a shipping container down to 50 deg F and hold it there for long periods of time. Container will be outdoors under a sunshade where solar panels will be mounted. The goal is to power the refrigeration unit with a solar system with energy...
Hey all,
So I have a program for a panel cover, and the customer supplied drawing calls out hole pattern, with true position to A/B/C, and A/B/C are established from datum targets derived from the points at the intersection of the axis of some of the holes and the nominal surface of the part...
Hi, I'm hoping ya'll can help me. I've been looking around various sites for a while, and can't seem to find a simple way to create a datum tag on a feature, in this case, the outer diameter of an injection molded part. I want to tag the OD similar to the way shown in the attached image. Right...
Hi,
I'm trying to simulate a part that has a slight but constant and symmetrical arch to it, that's meant to be stood on by a person, somewhat like a skateboard with a constant bend, that's touching the ground at the tangential point in the middle. How can I best simulate the interface with...
I'm looking for some information on the equilibrium temperature of PTC heaters as a function of input voltage. How does the transition temperature change with voltage? or does it? Thanks.
I have an assembly I'm trying to make an exploded view drawing for, but it keeps reverting to the regular state in the drawing after I edit anything. I put the components in the desired position in exploded view mode using the edit position tool, but when I click the "explode components in...
I'm review materials to be used for a mesh barrier with a cable or wire border that will handle most of the loading, it must span 96", be fixed at both ends at an equal height, and be able to resist deflecting more than 4" at midspan by a force acting there of 20 lbfs perpenticular to the wire...
I've got an interview with a company tomorrow that's notorious for asking difficult brain teasers.
Do you have any such questions that you remember from any of your interview experiences?
Hi
I'm looking for a way to measure the runout between two internal features on a small, radially symmetric part. We currently measure runout from the OD to the ID and from OD to a c’bore, but the performance of the part is determined primarily by the runout between the ID and c’bore. These...
I'm looking for UTS and YS data on two types of post HT aluminum wire.
Material #1: Aluminum 2014 wire
Incoming state: H13, 35-40ksi UTS
Heat Treat: Solution at 935 deg F for 50-60 mins, water quench, natural age at room temp for 96 hours
Material #2: Aluminum 7075 wire
Incoming state: H13...
Hi everyone, I hope I'm in the right place for this. I'm new to this board, so bear with me.
I'm having some performance testing issues with some parts I work with, and the failures seem to be related to the parts' heat treatment. I have a quick questions, and any assistance would be much...
