Looking for vendor of "Weld-on" link chain (3/8 & 1/2" chain)shortening bracket. I'm know about the shortening clutch which attaches to the chain. Looking for a weld-on bracket to secure chain to the side of a steel plate.
MRI Room Electrical Components
Designing machinery for use in MRI Room which requires electric/mechanical interlock for guarding. Must be non-magnetic device.
Any component or vendor sources for interlocks?
MRI Room Machinery Design & Fabrication
Plan to use 304 or 316 stainless to fabricate steel structure for a hydraulic lift.
Need reference for non-magnetic steel fabrication (i.e. aluminum alternative).
Looking for an adhesive/clamp type splice to form an endless belt. Need low profile splice.
Belt: Urethane 7/8 pitch timing belt x 2" wide with 29 .0355" steel reforcing wires.
Belt breaking strength 6,000 lbs.
Currnetly stripping ends of urethane belt to expose wires and using...
Our sales department needs a "simple" table for applying hydraulic fluid for application & temperature. Any "simple" rules of thumb or URLs?
Looking for an inexpensive reusable mechanical device (i.e. DTI) to establish bolt tension.
Application: Setting conveyor belt tensioner bolts to install and monitor belt sag.

Application: Setting conveyor belt tensioner bolts to install and monitor belt sag.
Looking for references on escalator "structural design" (not codes) such as tech papers, journal articles, design books. Attachments, brackets, support & seismic considerations.
Have a 9/16" rod covered with a (5/8 OD, 9/16 ID) nylon 6/6 bushing stock riding on a 3/4" ID chrome plated (65-70 Rc) ring.
Am trying to determine wear of Nylon 6/6. I want the nylon 6/6 to wear first.
Have yet to find a equivalent hardness rating for the nylon 6/6.
Any comments...

Looking of a good source or reference for hairpin clip design.
I have a 5/8" pin which needs to be held in place until a predetermined axilal load (approx. 150 lbs)is reached. The hairpin clip then releases the pin. This should allow the pin to be reset for use again.
Looking at...
Anyone have a good list of magnetic properties for "non-magnetic" steels?<br><br>I have an application for designing a vertical reciprocating conveyor(VRC or material handling lift) typically fabricated from A36 structural shapes (W, L, C, HSS sections). We need to install a...
As an equipment manufacture whose equipment is supported by the building structure, we are asked to have our drawings stamped by a local PE for local building approval.<br><br>I am hearing many comments on the current changes to the seismic requirements. There seems to be alot of...
Machinery design Load Service factors - looking for good references on apply structural steel design to machine design (ie frames, equipment support). Have some industry specific codes (ie overhead cranes) that address welding & beam design.<br>
