Humphrey's valves are a compact 1/8 inch ported 3- and 4-way, designed to work in a number of pneumatic applications. Valves from the same series can be mounted on a subbase or in-line, and 310 and 410 valves can go together on manifolds. They offer positive sealing, with a short-stroke balanced poppet design that doesn't need lubrication, is more tolerant of impurities in the air system and allows rapid cycling. The 310 series valves have a 0.12 Cv, and the 410 series has a 0.14 Cv. Both types have an air and inert gas rating from vacuum at 28 inches Hg to 125 psig. A continuous duty coil consumes 4.0W, comes in a range of ac and dc voltages, has flying leads and comes with a standard push, non-locking manual override. Options such as dc surge suppression and ac MOV, conduit connector with steel insert molded into the coil, plug-in, DIN-type connectors and a locking override are available. The 410 series can save space, weight and the cost of external flow controls with optional built-in flow controls.
Boeing continues to tweak the design of its 737 Max to add fuel efficiency to the next-generation jetliner with a change in the size of fan on the plane’s CFM LEAP-1B engine.
With its QuickPack print engine technology, easy-to-use preprocessing software, and hands-free cleaning system, Stratasys' Mojo is taking professional-grade 3D printing to a new level.
Against a backdrop of mounting product complexity and a need to keep a lid on development costs, companies are recognizing a need to make simulation a more integral part of the design process. In response, vendors in the CAD world are building out CAE functionality as part of their CAD suites while simulation vendors are building tighter integrations to leading CAD tools. Keith Meintjes, Ph.D., Practice Manager, Simulation and Analysis at CIMdata, Inc., joins Design News CAD Editor Beth Stackpole in this radio program to explore the new face of integrated CAD and CAE, how companies are benefitting from this tighter partnership between platforms, and how integrating CAE earlier in the development cycle pays off in optimized product designs.
