Hello all,
I am trying to achieve the shape of the image below. I've been able to create a U bend but I am running into problems when trying to add the 150 deg bend, and maintaining the center of each tube end on the same plane. Any advice would be appreciate.
Best,
Canos
Hello all,
I'm looking to get experimental values for thermal resistance of an Aluminum cold plate. Currently, trying to gather ideas of simple experimental set ups to validate theoretical data. I am having a hard time coming up with a way to supply a steady wattage to the system.

Hello all,
I have a part that will be exposed to "plant" water with all kinds of unknow metals. The part is made of Al 6063-T6. My main goal is to protect the part against corrosion. I've been doing some digging around and I am unclear as to what would be a better anodization for the intended...

Hello all,
So I'm in the hunt for a tube/filter/insert of sorts. We are looking to implement silver as a means of bacteria growth suppressor on a recirculating fluid tank. The image is a section view of the tank. The blue tube will be the filter screen with the red representing a small piece...
Hello all,
I've completed design for an Aluminum (6063 or 1060) heatsink, and I'm in the search for a domestic manufacturer who can Skive the part for me. Anyone with experience on this topic?
Thank you!
Does anyone know what kind of quick disconnect fittings these are? connected at the end of the tube, male and female.

Hello all,
I am looking to produce a bladder by welding two pieces of TPU backed nylon. This is a DIY project, and pricey machinery (5k+) is not in the budget. My current plan is to build a simple CNC machine, for pattern control, and attach a heating element to create seam welds. Any advice...
Hello All,
I am looking to weld TPU backed nylon in specific patters consistently, and figured that a programmable XY table might help do the trick. Travel area no bigger than 2'x2'. Any advice out there?
Thanks
Hello all,
I'm looking for a continues level sensor for a water tank, about 10 inches deep. The tank is made out of stainless steel. I found a GEMS sensor, xt-300, that would meet the requirements but they cost over $600 each! One of the caveats for the sensors is the mounting, as there is...
Hello all,
I'm trying to choose the correct AC/DC power supply, and I have some questions as to Isolation levels, can anyone explained the difference between:
A) Isolation level : Primary-Secondary: 2xMOOP, Primary-Earth: 1xMOOP, Secondary-Earth: 1xMOOP (MeanWell MSP-600)
B) Isolation level...
Hello,
I'm trying to understand the location of the thru holes on the attached schematic. The image shows a mounting method for a level sensor. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hello. I'm finishing the design for a 2 Liter stainless steel water tank. Originally, I picked out this plug https://www.oatey.com/products/cherne-petro-econogrip--768316564?upc=675115273320 but I'm no longer sure that it'll work for our application. The sheet metal for the tank is about 0.08"...
Hello,
I have a pump with M14x1,5 threads as ports. I've been searching for a male M14x1,5 thread fitting, ideally, to swagelok but they do not make these. I'm looking for an alternative connection, barb, or something similar. Any advice as to where to look?
Thanks
Hello,
I'm getting an extruded part in Aluminum, and I've set a pilot hole for a 10-32 tap at 0.159" +/- .010. The extruder is having issues meeting this spec, and requests to increase the tolerance by .006" bilaterally. Should I be concern that at the high end the extruded hole would be to...
Hello all,
I am looking for a type of fitting that will allow me to slightly increase the length between a male fitting and thread, something like a bushing. I have a CPC to 3/8 NPT male fitting, and I need an adaptor of sorts that would go between the male and female mates. Preferable made...
Hello all,
I'm looking for advice on how to develop a drain method for an aluminum coldplate. The piece is about 6" x 4" x 2", and fluctuates in temperature between 2 and 100 C. The coldplate is exposed to ambient temperature and significant condensate forms along the surface of the piece. The...
Hello,
I am having issues with completely purging my system after use. Residual fluid seems to settle along crevices in the tank, lines, fittings. I am currently using CDA to purge but there always appears to be extra fluid left behind. For sizing, the tank holds about 300 ml, with 1/4" ID...
