• Lean on me
  The Segway Personal Transporter now uses body language to control steering. The introduction of the Personal Transporter (PT) in 2001 by created great excitement. It was the product that everyone wanted to try. The second-generation PT, unveiled last August, breaks new ground with the addition...
• AFS Castings of the Year
  fabrication. A brass permanent-mold chill casting for a steering linkage from , Greensburg, Pa., was redesigned from a weldment composed of 10 prefabricated pieces, 19 weld joints, and four bushings. The resulting 9.82-lb component was 10% lighter than the weldment and eliminated some machining...
• Customizing to order
  . Look at your industry and customers to determine a strategy. Henry Ford's idea of marketing the Model T to the masses was simple yet revolutionary. His engineers used interchangeable parts to make the same car by the millions. Any valve fit any engine, any steering wheel fit any chassis. As a result...
• What is it -- SUV, truck, or UFO?
  might ask, how is this different from other sport-utility vehicles? First of all, the Aztek wide-track chassis, with a 62.7-in.-wide front and a rear track of 63.8-in., is wider than most mid-size SUVs such as the Dodge Durango. Power rack-and-pinion steering is standard. The MacPherson strut front...
• Magnesium parts with muscle
  where creep is a concern. Additionally, magnesium damps out vibration and noise, resists impacts and dents, and is fully recyclable. High-pressure, hot-chamber die-cast AZ-91D magnesium, for example, now takes the place of aluminum in small components for steering columns, valve covers and housings...
• Bonded films take the "bite"
  with the pinion gear. The yoke bearings in this case were originally made of powder metal and needed a separately attached insert of steel-backed bronze/PTFE. The costly, multipart design required assembly and had the potential to come apart and jam the steering gear. The yoke bearings are now molded from...
