• Sleek designs hinge on strong rotary joints
  and the folder unit, the weight center location of the folder unit, and the distance between the axis of the hinge and weight center. A typical MIM flipping hinge found on the Motorola V60C phone consists of a left knuckle, a right knuckle, a hinge barrel, and a cam. All four parts are made from MIM...
• Impact of ADS-B on Business Aviation
  they will ultimately replace. Furthermore, they're about the same size as cell-phone repeaters, or as the FAA likes to describe them, equivalent in dimensions to a bar refrigerator, and require far less electrical power. Thus, they can be installed just about anywhere: on roofs, poles (as in the jungles...
• Edmonton Water Jet Shop Experiences 9 Straight Years of Growth
  that waterjet was the wave of the future in terms of cutting, and also found that Edmonton was considered the "machine shop capital of the world," yet the city only had one waterjet shop at that time. Gerke's 12 years in the trades as a cabinetmaker coupled with four years of marketing experience...
• What is it -- SUV, truck, or UFO?
  suspension has four-stage shock absorbers valving for smooth ride and handling. A hydro-formed engine cradle gives strength and stiffness at the front of the chassis. On front-wheel-drive models, a twist-beam rear axle has an integral antiroll bar. A short-and-long-arm (SLA) independent rear suspension...
• Seeing In Nanometers: Laser And Gratings Make Tiny Motions Visible To Human Eye
  Engineers at Sandia National Labs have invented a small handheld device that lets the human eye detect movements on the order of 10 nm. A scanning electron micrograph of the motion detector shows the top grating layer suspended by four springs and actuated by two sidecomb drives. The second, fixed...
• Concept Cars of a Different Color ...Green
  hydrogen and 20 miles on battery electric energy. Two 10,000-psi (700-bar) composite storage tanks under the rear cargo floor hold 13.2 lb of hydrogen that feed the fuel-cell stack under the hood. Hydrogen mixes with oxygen to generate electricity, up to 88 kW of continuous power. The lithium-ion battery...
• Caring for Cables
  on carrier type and cable fill weight. When travel length exceeds that of an unsupported installation, a guide trough and glide bar supports the upper run. Cable carriers can also hang or stand vertically. Side-mounted, rotary, multiple-nested carriers and combination motions are also possible. Cable...
• Dream a little dream
  in the tailgate. It can be used to watch movies, surf the Internet (perhaps to check out site), and also displays a high-definition image of what a rearfacing camera sees behind the truck. is powered by a turbocharged, intercooled 2.0-liter four banger diesel with 134 hp and 236 lb-ft of torque...
• DIY DFM makes designers part of manufacturing
  in the company were first to suggest to the engineering department that there were faster ways to design. "For example, company products often took three to four years to get to market, partly because of the two to three iterations needed," says Mark Buckingham, principal manufacturing engineer at Renishaw...
• Industry's best designs for a newmillennium
  one location. The left side panel supports four cables running from the front to the back of the testhead where they join another four cables and attach to a remote server. The testhead has a modern look, thanks to pressure-formed ABS, aluminum casting, and formed sheet metal. Designer: frog design...
