    Low Temp Properties

    Does anyone know where I can get low temperature properties, stress-strain curve, yield strength, modulus, for unfilled PPO+PS and 15% glass reinforced PP. I'm looking for properties at -20 degrees C.

    General Drawing Tolerances

    I am interested in finding out if the field is moving away from using a general, or boiler-plate tolerance block on a drawing format or if most organizations are continuing to use it. Any opinions would be appreciated.

    Dimensioning from datum centerplane

    Can features be dimensioned from the centerplane of a true geometric counterpart of a non-cylindrical feature of size datum?

    ASTM Equivalency for 1144 Straight

    Can anyone tell me if there is an ASTM standard that is equivalent to AISI 1144 Straight (not Stressproof and not stress-relieved).

    Automotive adhesive solvent

    Does anyone know of a solvent that will remove a medallion from a porcelain finish without damaging the surface? The medallion is fixed to the surface using an automotive trim type adhesive. This is a salvage need so quantities are low.

    Formed Sheet Metal Spline

    Does anyone know of a standard for formed sheet metal splines when the need for a standard involute spline isn't required?

    DuPont Nylind 51 HSL

    Has anybody had any experience with the use of regrind in molding Nylind 51 HSL glass fiber reinforced nylon. Specifically, I am looking for a percentage of regrind that can be used without shorting the glass fiber length.

    Resin Starvation

    Other than cold cavity surface (less than 150 degrees F), what kind of molding conditions would contribute to the lack of a resin-rich surface of a gear molded out of Celcon GC25A?

    Gear Tooth Profile Template

    I need to check the profile of the tooth surface of a 52 tooth, 17 NDP, 20 degree PA molded plastic gear. Does anyone know of templates which may be available to use on an optical comparator or, perhaps, of a better way to measure the gear tooth profile?

    Proper Terminology

    I remember when Y14.5 Standard for Dimensioning and Tolerancing first was introduced, the term applied for the tolerance of a hole location defined by basic dimensions was "True Position". Later, the term was changed and became "Position". Does anyone know if it has been changed back to "True...

    Stainless Steel Fatigue Strength

    I am looking for anyone having a bad experience due to changing from 301 to 201 stainless in thicknesses in the .035 to .045 range, specifically due to a cycling load.

    Corosion Resistant Coatings

    I have an application in which I will be gluing a friction material to mild steel which needs to have a corosion resistant coating. Currently, the coating is zinc phosphate but I can switch to zinc di-chromate if need be. The adhesive is phenolic based and is baked at 400 degrees F. My...

    Patterns

    I am trying to create a radial pattern to form five spokes in a wheel. When I use (2) as the number of instances it works well but if I try to change it to (5) it fails. Am I having a problem with this build of Wildfire 2.0. I'm sure the section I am trying to cut will fit in a 72 degree segment.

    Poisson's Ratio

    Does anybody know what Poisson's Ratio is for 430 Stainless? I have checked Matweb.com and can't seem to find it.

    Creating a section in part mode

    Is there still some method of creating a cross section in part mode? I can't find anything among the maddening array of meaningless icons or picks and when I go to search help it just leads me down a bunch of dead-end paths.

    Labels for Icons

    Does anybody know of a setting in config.pro which puts labels on all the icons so someone can tell what they mean?

    Leap from 2001 to Wildfire 2.0

    I'm having great difficulty with Wildfire 2.0. It almost seems as though I would be better off if I had not been a user since release 5 in the early 90's and continued to build my skills since. I can't even seem to select an edge when I am trying to define sketching references. It just keeps...

    Bonding Brake Friction Material

    Does anybody have any experience or information about cold bonding of brake friction material to an as-cast or machined aluminum die casting?

    Solidworks to Pro/E Conversion

    Does anyone know of a service who can convert a Solidworks (.sldprt) file to a Pro/E (.prt) file without having to construct the whole model?
