Phil Burge, Communication Manager for SKF, explores the options of motor replacement and repair looking in detail at the latest bearing technology that is enabling considerable energy savings to be realised.

Blue Diamond announces a seal design service for applications where high performance and efficiency are required. In today’s competitive markets, there is a much greater awareness of the energy efficiency of rotating machines, and one way that energy consumption can be reduced is by maximising efficiency.

ESAB has launched the Hybrio™ family of hybrid laser arc welding equipment. This combines the benefits of laser welding and gas metal arc welding (GMAW) to create an automated welding process that is up to ten times faster than conventional alternatives, with 80-90 per cent less heat input and substantially less distortion.

Flomerics and Matchstick Productions have released a short video, available at : //www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q09fO5SqHIo, which for the first time reveals the complex 3D airflow around a wingsuit that enables human beings to glide through the air like a bird. The video combines actual footage of human flight in wingsuits with airflow simulations using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software. The actual wingsuit flight segments come from the fil...

Flomerics has published a comprehensive technical white paper on mesh generation techniques for fluid flow simulation. Written for mechanical engineers, the paper explains the need for a computational mesh and the pros and cons of different mesh types. It also explains the factors affecting the choice of grid system such as cell shape, geometry representation, mesh structure and grid generation.

Thermal simulation with Flomerics’ Flotherm software helped Redback Networks overcome the cooling challenges involved in creating the first million-subscriber triple-play platform. “The power dissipation of the line cards in the new platform had to be increased by 2X relative to the previous generation to obtain the planned improvement in performance and functionality,” said Wendy Lu, Mechanical Engineer for Redback Networks. “By focusing...

The need for safety, security, and the protection of people working in facilities around the world is increasing every day. 3M’s Occupational Health and Environmental Safety (OH&ES) division was tasked with developing a new face shield for welders. About half-way through the design and prototyping phase, 3M realized they needed to improve the aesthetics of the design and needed new CAD data to revise the model.

Field Precision has achieved unprecedented reliability, speed and versatility in the direct generation of 3D conformal finite-element meshes using data exported from SolidWorks and other 3D CAD programs

Borger’s MIP design of its highly durable Rotary Lobe Pump ensures an absolute minimum of downtime for virtually any wastewater or sludge application.

ITI TranscenData announced today the release of CADIQ 6.1, the latest edition of its leading CAD model validation application that identifies model-based design issues that adversely impact downstream processes, such as tooling, simulation and manufacturing.
