What are the types of CMM?

What are the types of CMM? There are four main types of coordinate measuring machine (CMMs): bridge, cantilever, gantry and horizontal arm. The one you choose will be determined by what you wish to use it for. All CMMs have three orthogonal axes, X, Y and Z which operate in a 3D coordinate system. Which […]

Why does my quad not start?

Why does my quad not start? There are two main reasons why an ATV will not start. One is the unit does not have spark and without spark the engine will not fire. Also, if the engine has poor gas flow your ATV will not run. Below are simple steps on how to check to […]

How long should a pair of safety glasses last? one to three years What is the standard for safety glasses? ANSI Z87.1 […]

What is hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layer?

What is hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layer? This thin layer of changing velocity has been called the hydrodynamic boundary layer; a concept first suggested by Ludwig Prandtl in the year 1904. Heat transfer occurs due to heat conduction and energy transport by moving fluid within this thin layer. What is the difference between hydrodynamic and […]

What type of aluminum is used for casting?

What type of aluminum is used for casting? A380 Aluminum Alloy The most popular alloy for aluminum die casting is A380. We use A380 because it has demonstrably the best combination of physical and mechanical properties for casting, including being lightweight, very strong at high temperatures and corrosion resistant. How many types of die casting […]

What causes crater wear?

What causes crater wear? Crater wear happens on the tool face at a short distance from cutting edge by the action of chip flow over the face at very high temperature. The crater wear is mainly due to diffusion and abrasion. They are commonly observed where the continuous chip is formed (usually in the ductile […]
