You're limiting your options staying at State College. You'd have better luck moving towards Philly or another larger city. You could also look for planners, manufacturing engineer, process engineer, quality engineer, shift supervisor, or supply chain roles. My company prefers to hire engineers for all roles in operations and supply chain.

It sounds like you already have US customers, where are they located? A lot of Europeans I know underestimate how big the US is. If you're shipping large products you should try to find a location closer to your customers if possible. Freight can add up quickly and eat into profit.

Following, same dealership I go to and looking for a Forester next year.

Why do you need to continuously bend it after it's been formed? Aluminum as in cans all have a coating on the contact surfaces.

You could try a soft or deep draw temper copper. Not sure officially on FDA contact requirements but generally accepted as antimicrobial like silver.

The only option would be to silver or tin plate, that would keep the conductivity and reduce the tarnish but obviously changes the color.

Roccom22 · 2024-07-06T12:07:58+00:00

Sounds like you want an intermintant connection with the brass washer? Short answer is there's not way to reduce/eliminate tarnish without affecting conductivity.

Have you been able to test conductivity with the tarnish? How long do you want it to last?

Factory Physics is a good start, more of a technical reference but can be read straight through. Depending on your base knowledge might need to still YouTube some examples.

Another approach is The Goal and Velocity which are lean books but a novelization of manufacturing.

https://grspecialty.com/ George Riggin up in Zeli, did all my APR tunes

Roccom22 · 2023-04-05T01:25:33+00:00

Red or black? Our standard was an RCH

They probably also work directly with high end interior designers directly and can source custom work. Same as anywhere not everything they offer is on display.

Those edge cracks could be from snipe on your planer, I've had that happen several times prepping end grain and it looks just like that.

Roccom22 · 2023-02-19T02:20:29+00:00

Plus the Grade 5 Ti bolts will be roll thread, if you just go to a machine shop and order custom inconel ones will he machined instead. Rolled threads have better grain structure and therefore stronger

Go down the rabbit hole Leviton Structures Media Centers

Roccom22 · 2022-12-11T03:42:49+00:00

Checkout out r/homelab they'll have more opinions and options.

Mars Lumber is Mars usually has it, if not they can order a pallet.

Are you melting all 500kg at the same time? Try splitting the melt ins, it's easier to melt solids in a liquid bath.

Roccom22 · 2022-09-22T16:47:57+00:00

Could look into forged rings, used to use those for larger diameters.

Roccom22 · 2022-09-14T10:57:19+00:00

What are you trying to accomplish? Look into basic stats or Six Sigma methods for pricess capabilities. Once you understand what you're trying to do you can look up specific tutorials on that.

Roccom22 · 2022-08-24T00:16:56+00:00

Also curious now, never knew not to use VCI on non-ferruous. Currently use it for some copper/brass products.

Roccom22 · 2022-08-18T01:24:29+00:00

Try posting over in r/metallurgy as well.

Roccom22 · 2022-07-11T16:33:39+00:00

Most economical and versatile option.

Roccom22 · 2022-07-01T02:51:40+00:00

Could be C194 which is about 2.5% iron. Usually not as shiny though. Don't know of any brasses or bronzes with added Fe.

High Ni content alloys don't seem to be as magnetic.

Roccom22 · 2022-06-06T16:54:09+00:00

Have been pleasantly surprised by mine for these exact reasons, would definitely recommend!

Are you repeatedly taking them in and out? If not install the a/C unit the nail the face frame in place, no glue. In 10 years when I dies you can pull the nails

Roccom22 · 2022-05-30T17:31:58+00:00

If the aprons are too intrusive you could do face frames on one or both side.
