I am afraid I am being object of a practical joke. I thought that until I saw the proposal from South American company offering my client the thing he asked for:
A steam engine (with a 16 inch piston) working at 250 psi used to move an electrical generator.
I thought that these times were...
Dear friends,
We have a design problem, where we have to fit in a constrained space an approximate load capacity of 12800 N.
One of the alternatives will be to use a pair of 6201 series bearing working side by side. Yes, we know we can use a paired match, and that the dynamic load would be...
Dear Friends,
We have been requested to design a cookie feeder for a chocolate bathing machine. Our design includes a large tray, 1600x820mm, with a 10% slope towards the direction that we want the cookies to move. The tray will be made in Stainless Steel 2mm thick, and will be moved by a...
Dear friends,
This should be an easy one, (I hope).
We have to repair a stainless steel ribbon mixer used in the food industry. The main shaft uses sealings to prevent the powder to leak, and to prevent strange particles to go in. The shaft is sealed with a teflon bushing, pressed into the...
One of our clients has asked us to fix 10 sanitary conic plug valves, which are leaking. The pressure is very low (10 psi), the liquid is very thick (cough syrup), and yet the valves leak.
The valves are supposed to have a conic plug, with a hole, and work in a similar way to a ball valve. The...
We are looking for a software package that can help us to know how much time each worker spent on each project.
We would like to ask our workforce to check at a terminal, perhaps with a barcode reader, when they start to work on a project and when they finish with it, so, we would know how many...
I would like to know if there is a method to chase the cause of a "max/min bandwidth too high warning".
I have found that sometimes it is due to elements that are very close to each other, but not in contact from the program point of view. I have also found that some lines used to...
We have received some stainless steel valves from a medical specialties laboratory to repair their leaking. They are similar to spherical valves (the ones that have a steel ball with a hole and they turn 90 degrees to open or close), but instead of a ball these valves have a truncated cone.
We...
