Air Bending for Airboats
versatility and productivity. Pacific's Fabri-K press brake is CNC controlled. Fleckinger said, "We put the airboat's model number in the computer and the brake's back gauge automatically moves the aluminum sheet around for bending. This makes it very user-friendly and easy to program. Their Fabri-K

is raised 33 mm, said to improve cornering and stability. A ring-shaped reinforcement frame ties together side sills, center pillars, and roof supports for a strong structure that's said to be stiffer in bending and twisting strength than previous models. And, with regard to ride and handling, the WRX

of these alloys provide electrical or mechanical links in safety devices. Other applications include low-temperature solders, seals for glass and other heat-sensitive materials, foundry patterns, molds for low-volume production of plastic parts, internal support for tube bending, and localized thermal treatment

One Step Ahead
actuators measure cornering and aerodynamic loads to the car. Another common test uses machines to actually twist and bend the chassis. This lets engineers measure chassis torsional and bending resistance, center of gravity, and moment of inertia. Ford also uses proprietary race-simulation software.

Metalformer Laser - Cuts in 2d, Manages Growth in 3D
new cutting capabilities. Phil said early on that if were going to be serious about moving into laser cutting, says Rich, then we needed bending capability.. Press-brake bending is not the only complementary process to laser cutting that American Cap added. A lot of products being quoted required

Orbital Forming - Does More For Less
column strength, cold-head forming is possible without bending or swelling the fastener shank. Because less axial load is required for forming, a smaller press can be used, which reduces equipment tonnage, floor space, and costs typically associated with producing large parts. Due to lower forming

The path to precise motion control
capability even when there is axial or torsional bending. Getting high precision out of linear guides can only be done by limiting motion in the X, Y, and Z axes as the runner block travels along the rail. Rexroth does this by recirculating balls in the ballrail runner block. Want to use this article

Considerations for Step Motors in Space Applications
misalignment between the motor and a rigidly coupled load will bend the shaft as it is rotating. This bending fatigue is aggravated by snap ring grooves or machined cuts, and brittleness at cold temperature. When gears are used to multiply motor torque, the potential for shaft breakage increases
