Uppili11,
I remember hearing back in my college days that expert systems would be used instead of doctors in the future. However, that has yet to come to fruition. And why is that? The cynic would say that the doctors don't want to share their information which could be placed in an expert...
Gwen,
It really depends on the materials of the pellets & powder. If they are compatible with each other, then there shouldn't be too much of a problem extruding both together. What materials are the components?

The type of repair would really depend on the material. What might work for a PVC might not on HDPE. I don't know if the tub would have any indicator on it as to what it might be. You might want to check.

Tegefe,
We currently have a vacuum lift on a jib crane. I'm not too sure what the max load is for this unit. But I don't think it'll rotate in all axises. The one we have costs $7500 so it might go up a bit more for the movement you may want. But I really couldn't say how much. Hope this...
You can contact one of many suppliers as well as look them up on the internet. You'll want to get with them to tell them what you're wanting to make so they can determine which machine would be best. Here's a few names:

Well, to answer it in a truly engineer form: it depends. More than likely, those types of products are made by injection mold machines. Of course, that is considering that the items are hollow. If they aren't hollow, then they could be made several different ways. Hope that helps some B-)
I've heard all types of methods for cleaning screws & barrels. One of the most interesting is to run kitty litter (unused, of course) through the machine. The granuals seem
If you have brass scrapers, you can get the poly off as the screw is pushed out. Using some WD-40 will usually help get...
Aaron,
It really depends on what you need. Does it need to contain 3-D graphics? How much data are you going to analyze? Will you be looking at a medium-to-high volume assemblies? Here are a few links to some other simulation software packages.

Well, it really depends it what section of the garment industry you're talking about. Are you talking production of garments? The cleaning of garments? The repair of garments? Plus, what aspects do you want to know? Time studies? Ergonomics? Process flow? It really depends on what sector...
UHMW is pretty easy to machine and would most likely work in your situation. You should be able to find the material pretty readily available. Places such as Grainger, MSC, etc. will have the thickness that you'll need.

One thing you need to remember when putting any piece of equipment or part in an oven is to know to what temperature you can safely heat it to get the plastic off without damaging the part/piece of equipment. If you think cleaning a part is difficult, try explaining why you need to replace a...
Well, I can tell you this, most engineers do not use Calculus out in the real world. Of course, I'm sure someone will pipe up and say that they do :-) As for the upper ME classes being harder, I think that most degrees have the lower classes that are harder, thus "weeding out" some...
Hi Juanito,
I think one thing you need to consider is how much floor space do you have for such a machine. Both are quite capable at cutting. I would think it really depends on the energy consumption of each one. Also, would you be able to maintain this machine with your current maintenance...
Hi Rob,
If your part is very large, then ultrasonic might not be the best idea. We've looked at utilizing ultrasonic cleaners and we've found that they'll do an excellent job on cleaning a part . . . but it had to be a relatively small part. In order to ultrasonically clean a part, it has to...
