    O-ring vs fused cord

    By 'out-perform' I meant to last longer. Anyway... I find that I agree with this statement: In this application, with the 'belts' in tension, and with everything else being equal, an o-ring will lose its elasticity much sooner then an extruded fused cord. That said I will probably use...

    O-ring vs fused cord

    Thanks for responding. I agree with flexibox as this is true in most cases. However, the question remains: molded vs extruded. The point is I have been advised that in this instance, an extruded bonded cord will out-perform a molded o-ring due to the 'physics' of the processes. If this is so...

    O-ring vs fused cord

    This may or may not be the best place to ask this question but anyway her goes....I have a small conveyor that I would like to use uses o-rings to move sheets of paper as per the attached PDF (to get perspective the pulleys are 1.0" dia).

    German gear box

    I have a german (vogel)gearbox spec that reads: I=3,0. I think this is the gear ratio but was hoping somebody could verify this for me please. (I have given up trying to get answers from vendors, reps, googles etc. The unit is not accessible to me.)

    Why can't use the number keys as hot keys?

    I can not use the number keys as hot keys. I am not talking about the num lock numbers. I CAN use the number keys as hot keys if I use them with the ctrl or shift or alt keys.

    Problem loading Cadkey99 on SW machine.

    Solved. (I deleted the 'prt' file extension from the file types dialog and then I added it back as 'new'.) So thanks Albert!

    Problem loading Cadkey99 on SW machine.

    For some reason '.prt' files are associated w SW so you have to change 'opens with' from sw to CKwin. Now in the folder options / files types dialog box the 'advanced' button changes to 'restore' so you can't get at the 'advanced' action 'edit' screen bs to fix the problem of mutiple sessions of...

    this newbo tired of searching so I ask: In an assy why would a part number have blue text in feature manager? Maybe something to do with patterns?
