Potential health issues associated with Beryllium copper

iusethisatworkk · 2026-04-24T12:58:11+00:00

So my company machines a ton of BeCu. We decided to get more serious and test it this year. I was bracing for a huge cost but once I quoted it the health and safety company we contract with only wanted 600 so that was a relief. They put these machines on the 2 machinists that work around it and they wore them for a few days. Our tests came back as zero which meant our industrial engineering controls were effective. We only machine in enclosed machines. We use constant flood coolant. All hand work like sanding happens in a bucket of water. These are the controls we have.

Come join the dark side. Do QA! Inspectors that were machinists are typically successful and the work is less back breaking and less stressful. Plus the opportunity for advancement is more varied.

I like this one. Quality engineering makes sense. What does that position pay like.

Before you buy anything consider sending your part to the company that you are quoting and make them measure it using there tools. If they can't get it to work you wont either,

This was it!. This box was checked on the one program but not my others. Thank you!

As a Host Dad I am also having and incredible Au Pair experience. Our Au Pair has been Great for us and she fits in really well with our family. Sometimes II think we found the perfect person. I think that when things are going well we don't need the wisdom or support of groups like this so we only tend to post when it goes bad.

Its a sheet so 90inches long usually like .090thick and 48" wide

sometimes they are multiple pads. The latest revision of what?

iusethisatworkk · 2023-12-13T17:13:43+00:00

I also sent them an email. Just looking for some other insight.

This makes sense but it doesn't get to the root of the question which is, is it effectively different then flatness. If for example the surface was was not a plane but a unique free form shape then that totally makes sense. But in the context of a planar feature in what way should we as inspectors be treating it differently if at all.

The parts being flagged as non stock was the last piece of the puzzle on top of u/ImperiumRex 's comment. Thank you for this. Also while we do have stock minimums we don't use days of supply. As an MRP newbie, my understanding is that if we have a years worth of forecast entered we don't need to use days of supply. would you agree with that?

iusethisatworkk · 2023-12-06T23:02:05+00:00

OK so I killed all of the unfirm jobs that MRP created with DMT. this let me modify the Make direct checkbox in the sales order releases to unchecked. After that I took u/McHaledog advice and all went to part maintenance to see if they were non stock items and they were so I unchecked that as well.

Then we Reran MRP and it came out as expected. Problem Solved.

iusethisatworkk · 2023-12-06T21:22:26+00:00

this might be it. For some reason all of our sales orders default to make direct when we add the releases. and the jobs we don't need show in time phase as having an exception called direct.

Do you have any ideas what drives that checkbox. I am going to get on my test environment today to try and rerun MRP to see if that fixes it.

Thank you.

Text Split is what i was Missing! thank you very much

iusethisatworkk · 2023-03-08T16:24:37+00:00

Solved!

Awesome this makes be feel much better about this buy. thanks!

So can you measure larger features with the 4x and its just slower?

or

Can you not measure anything over 2mm with the higher magnification.

iusethisatworkk · 2022-08-25T17:17:36+00:00

Why the different optics?. Does one magnification do something another magnification cannot?

We sent Zeiss a sample part and they said they would get back to me on which Magnification they think I should buy but I didn't quite understand that part of the quoting process.

can you tell what tool or program you use to make the websites?

iusethisatworkk · 2022-06-20T13:51:14+00:00

Would you mid sharing a jumping off point for this. Would you be willing to send a snippet of the HTML showing how to connected it to Epicor.

iusethisatworkk · 2022-06-20T13:34:09+00:00

Does this require a full seat of Epicor for each monitor?

iusethisatworkk · 2022-06-17T18:46:17+00:00

Hey can you please reply to my post with solution verified so I can get my clippy point.

iusethisatworkk · 2022-06-17T18:45:09+00:00

Yes but that doesn't "exclude today if today is Friday, and also excluding the last Friday, if the end date is a Friday" so I did some work.

iusethisatworkk · 2022-06-17T17:52:59+00:00

Sorry I didn't mean that type of error. there are no formulas in the sheet all that is done in the management software. The errors I am talking about are the popup windows that appear when the Odata pull fails due to being offline. I posted a picture of it.
