Finally, Safe and Secure Retention at High Speeds! With rotational capacity requirements of modern applications higher than ever, it's challenging to find a retaining ring that can withstand high speeds. Work-around solutions end up needing more assembly time, cost more money, or even worse, they fail!

Increasingly, additive manufacturing is being used to produce end use parts, not just prototypes. For end use parts to be considered viable for this approach, there are many factors that need to be considered including materials, volumes, cost and tolerances. One very important factor is achieving very high accuracy and precision in your 3D printed parts. This white paper will discuss how the mechanical tolerance of 3D printers effect part accuracy. 3D printers that are capable of meeting tighter tolerances have the most promise to be used as end use production equipment, specifically for short run production applications.

Machine drivelines are generally designed to withstand the torque load from the process being performed, as well as the torque load required for accelerating up to operating speed. The larger the rotating mass, the more likely a mismatch exists between the start-up torque and the energy released in case of an abrupt or unintended stoppage – the results of which can cause catastrophic damage to equipment. Mechanically resettable overload safety devices can prove critical in preventing mill downtime by quickly and safety disconnecting drivelines in case of blockages, protecting belts, shafts, universal joints, and gearboxes from excessive torque, and facilitating a quick reset without the need for special tools.
