Worms and worm gears have been manufactured since ancient times. In modern times the profile or tooth form of gearing has been standardised for most types of gears. Helical or spur gear teeth can be defined in terms of pressure angle and NDP.

Designing the modern day car has become an extremely complex problem. Not only must the car be pleasing to the eye, but it must be comfortable, reasonably priced and fuel efficient as well. Based in Winterthur, Switzerland, Rieter Automotive Systems is one of the leading global suppliers of systems solutions in the field of noise control and thermal management for the automotive industry. Rieter Automotive Systems offers innovative solutions w...

Modeling hazardous scenarios has become an essential part of engineering design for Offshore activities. Physical testing can be prohibitively expensive and in some cases impossible so modern Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques are commonly used for the modeling of exhaust plume dispersion, natural and forced ventilation efficiency, flaring, toxic gas releases, fires, explosions and hazardous spills.

Flomerics announced today that the Package Engineering Group from Applied Micro Circuits Corporation is using Flotherm thermal simulation software to significantly reduce the cost of packaging and the project resource cost for a new family of ICs. AMCC achieved these outstanding results by comparing flip-chip and wire bond thermal performance early in the design process.

Flomerics Ltd. today announced the availability of version 8.2 of its popular Engineering Fluid Dynamics (EFD) fluid flow and thermal simulation product family.

Voxdale used Flomerics’ EFD.Pro computational fluid dynamics software to solve a power light emitting diode thermal management problem in just one day. The initial prototype of the LED system overheated to the point that the amount of light delivered by the device and its lifetime were both substantially reduced. Voxdale engineers used the CFD results to redesign the housing in just one day to improve airflow, which eliminated overheating and i...

Laser Design Inc. was named one of America’s fastest-growing private companies by Inc. Magazine for the second year in a row. The 2008 “Inc. 5,000” award honors 5000 U.S.-based, privately held, independent companies that are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2004 through 2007. Ranked number 3,232 nationally, Laser Design holds 64th place of the fastest-growing companies in the state of Minnesota. Revenue growth in the ...

Encore Bits LLC solved a difficult erosion problem in an oilfield drill bit by using FloEFD computational fluid dynamics software from Mentor Graphics Mechanical Analysis (formerly Flomerics) to improve flow around the bit. Salvo made changes in the bit geometry and nozzle configuration that substantially increased its life and enhanced cuttings removal. “CFD helped us understand the problem and guided us as we iterated the design to an optimiz...

FISHER/UNITECH today announced its achievement of number one Dimension reseller status in North America for new machines sold in 2007. The Dimension 3D Printer represents a breakthrough in large format rapid prototyping technology, with office-friendly machines starting at $18,900. The Dimension printer is an integral component in FISHER/UNITECH’s mission to provide the manufacturing industry with best-in-class product design software and har...

The combination of modern technology and graphical user interface makes Fixturlaser XA Geometry one of this year's most innovative news in the market for geometric measurement tools. The user interface guides the user during the entire measurement and adjustment process by using color-coded measurement values, icons, and arrows showing the direction in which the measurement object needs to be adjusted.
