    ID Symbol Stacking

    No. I think I saw where this will be available in a future release, but can't find that post. This has come up a number of time, so you may try searching for it.

    Sharing well constructed CAD models II

    Simon, Thanks for the tips and models. Never knew it would do this. Just goes to show what you can learn this software will do by getting outside of your usual methods and practices.

    Sharing well constructed CAD models II

    I like that one. Wish we had a studio license as I am guessing that's how the mirror effect was accomplished?

    Recommend Automotive ECU/Motion Control Suppliers?

    No. For angle sensors, we use a heavy duty product from some one else. For steering position, we use LVDT's that are mounted in the hydraulic cylinders that control the steering.

    Recommend Automotive ECU/Motion Control Suppliers?

    We use the iQan system by Parker. Analog and digital I/O with multple CAN channels for integration with radio remote controls. http://www.parker.com/portal/site/PARKER/menuitem.75b3c0354ff8851afa93ebde76108a0c/?vgnextoid=a87314e222b13110VgnVCM10000048021dacRCRD IFM Effector and Bosch offer...

    Regenerative hydraulic circuit

    Looking for circuit examples of regenerative hydraulic circuits involving single acting cylinders. Have multiple lift cylinders that need to dynamically level a platform and would like to route oil from collapsing cylinders to cylinders needing to extend.

    Excitation, Torque and Volts/Hz

    The motors will all be running at or near same load. This includes periods where maximum motor power is required. Between 15 and 20 400HP motors.

    Excitation, Torque and Volts/Hz

    How would you size a generator to run a bank of VFD's? Number of motors * motor FLA * Safety factor? This would be a continuous load as grid power will not be available.

    learning Six Sigma = boring

    There will always be a new "fad" There is an entire industry based on "consulting" Here is their business model: 1. Invent new shiny method to making widgets better. 2. Tell the world while collecting nice fees. 3. All the world now knows. 4. GOTO step 1. Neverending.

    Adjacent Balloon Placement

    When adding leaderless circle type identification symbols, they will only line up with the original on a horizontal or vertical basis. This results in loose placement and they will not track with the base symbol's movement. Is there a way to make them "stick" together like with a coincident...

    Performance Reviews

    The announcement of upcoming performance reviews was accompanied by an announcement that all wages will be frozen for the year. I have a prediction: All employees will receive the best performance review ever in their time at this company.

    What else can I do?

    GMcD Says "Leading teams is a delicate art, and something I know I lack - I'm not a political animal and detest people who need to be told what to do...." So, you are not a leader and hate people who must be led? Is this self-hatred the root of your opinions of your peers?

    Cat Data-Link to J1939

    Did not see CDL listed on the supported protocols for this ECU. Have you used this before?

    Drafting Dimension Rounding

    Unfortunately, this method adds 1 to all values including 6.0 which becomes 7. The Round-Up option should probably be relabeled as ROUND because that's what it does. Almost seems like a bug to me. Will start looking at using Excel for display of dimensions because =ROUNDUP(#.#) does what I...

    Drafting Dimension Rounding

    Is there a way to get all displayed dimension values to round up in V20? For example: 6.1 to round up to 7. The ROUND-UP option in the Units Tab of the dimension style editor only rounds values 5 and over. Less than 5 and it rounds down. (settle down, I realize this is the standard method of...

    I DON'T KNOW SYNDROME

    I am at the point where I realize I have not responded "I don't know" enough in my career. The personal gratification in helping out a colleague has been overshadowed by a desire to focus on my own responsibilities. I know we are all supposed to be team players, but at the end of the day, I...

    Electric DIY book recall!

    Maybe the "pros" that authored it are trying to thin out the competition a little?
