Hi, Can someone tell me if it is possible to weld an aluminum plate (0.38 thk) to a steel structure? Or, would it have to be bolted. This is not for a production environment, only for a one-off design. thanks

You can do a search for belting using any of several search engines on the Internet. Some quick references are as follows: www.brecoflex.com www.habasit.com These are belting suppliers, and as such have extensive knowledge of rollers, and related applications. Hope this is helpful! Paul R

Once again, I agree with Mike. I also use Russell Metals and their fabulous handbook on steel/aluminum/brass/copper and all related alloys. The Russell Metals handbook is a newer version of the older Drummond McCall handbook, if that helps any. If you're in Canada Russell Metals has branch...

Hi Shawn, Curious question for sure. It is listed as 'not preferred' because of the fact that m14 is not listed as a 'first choice' size in the grand list of 'preferred basic sizes' - ref section K16.6 of the Genium Publishing Drafting Manual. M14 is listed as a 'second choice' however, with...

HI,<br><br>I think in the end, it's really a matter of preference, but one important guideline to follow is the speed and onboard RAM the video card has, and from most studies, an AGP video card is generally considered superior to the older PCI cards.<br><br>For instance, I found that upgrading...

Mark's Standard Handbook for Mechanical Engineering also features an extensive section on cryogenics, if more in-depth information is required.<br><br>Paul R

Good morning Ted,<br> <br> Thanks for emailing over the powerpoint show of the solid edge 'case history'.<br> I reviewed it last night and found it quite insightful. It is always very interesting to <br> examine a well documented design to look at the various processes and alterations,<br>...

I agree, the GE thermoplasics design guide is a must-have if you're working with polymers.<br> It contains a vast amount of useful information. As well, the GE plastics web site is also very useful, and under continual improvement. I've asked questions there before and had quick results from...

<br> With regard to my previous posting, I searched my library, and I would recommend MIL-HDBK-659A, on Human Factors Engineering, which is a very concise military handbook covering the spectrum of human factors engineering from percentile sizes to slump factors, and body movement. It contains...

Hi Ted,<br> Greetings from Ottawa! <br> <br> Yes V7 does include the sheet metal environment, as well as some improved functionality across the board with the part/assembly and draft modules. You can find exact updates at the www.solid-edge.com website.<br> <br> Best Regards,<br> <br> Paul...

I would suggest going to the GE Plastics web site and sending an email to them regarding a possible procedure for accomplishing this.<br> <br> The website is http://www.ge.com/plastics/americas/<br> It's very extensive, and thorough.<br> <br> Best of luck<br> <br> Paul<br>

I haven't done any ergonomics related work in a while, however I do recall having a government specification on the percentile human figures in my library of things.<br> <br> As for acquiring dwg/dxf models/drawings of such, you can try one of the following web sites that deal specifically with...

For anyone interested in the new release information for Solid Edge v7, Cadalyst Magazine has a review published in the September 99 issue, as well it can be printed out from there website at www.cadonline.com<br> <br> I recently made the jump from ver 5 to ver 7, and it's most worthwhile...

Steve,<br> Regarding recommended thickness of zinc on steel parts, according to ASM Materials Handbook, they suggest somewhere in the range of 0.001 to 0.002 in for severe environmental condition use. This will provide an extended service life over a thinner coating (say 0.0002 to 0.0005 in)...
