when it is judged that the weld zone 3 is situated at the head in the direction of conveyance of the material to be rolled which is cut and divided, the cut length of the material to be rolled is controlled so as to cut longer by one length of a test material sampled as a test sa...
5-axis machine executing a custom program to cut billet aluminum into a camera panel. [Photo: courtesy of Facebook] Big And Small Asked why Facebook made the x24 and x6, Cabral pointed to the company’s core mission–connecting everyone to the memories and experiences they want...
Compared with steel, aluminum and magnesium are more prone to bubble formation in acidic media, and hydrogen gas is produced in the cathodic reaction in the head area.The corrosion products at the tail were either aluminum hydroxide Al(OH) 3 , a white gel-like precipitate, or magnesium hydrox...
cut a slot for the shifter arm and drop it in. Then underneath with the shifter and gear selector in the park position, we connect the threaded rod from the transmission to the shifter while I'm underneath the new drive shaft came in. Now, this is an aluminum one piece shaft from the...
Two billet aluminum DT466's side by side (as close together as possible) with mirror image OHC heads with a shared intake in the center. Common plumbing to tie the two together and three huge Wimer chargers feeding everything. I'd go tube chassis, not wedge... and it money wasn't ...
Bolt size is measured from the end of the threads to the bottom of the bolt head. The bolt head diameter makes no difference in general measurements.When threads are cut or rolled the outside diameter will be reduced a bit. So a 5mm bolt will have a thread diameter measurement of ...
Industrial 3D printers empower the rapid, cost-effective production of jigs, fixtures, and tooling in-house to save days or weeks of lead time, improve operational agility, and dramatically reduce costs versus outsourcing parts to an external vendor to machine from a solid billet of plastic or ...
These are a pair of synchronized shears that race along with the moving billet and cut it. This allows efficient cuts without stopping the manufacturing process. These billets are stacked and will eventually become seamless pipe. 6 Slabs are also reworked. To make them malleable, they are ...
Our pal Steve Brulé at Westech Performance likes to use a pair of 5/16-inch long aluminum rods that fit through both lifter galleries to hold the lifters in place. We used a 5/16-inch steel rod about four feet long from the hardware store. Sometimes this long pin may require a flat...
Certain types of spark plugs make use of a steel billet (bar stock) for shell construction. Plating: The shell is almost always plated. This enhances durability and provides for rust and corrosion resistance. The steel shell is fabricated to exact tolerances using a special cold extrusion ...
