The award, given in 2004, went to Mojave Aerospace Ventures (MAV, Mojave, CA, US), owned and funded by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen for spaceship technology engineered by Burt Rutan and his Scaled Composites team at the Mojave Spaceport. The spaceship that reached the goal was an all-carbon fiber composite structure named SpaceShipOne. In one of the many departures from the ordinary in this venture, the spaceship did not launch from Earth’s surface, but was delivered part of the way to its destination by the (also) carbon fiber composite WhiteKnight. Dubbed the mothership, WhiteKnight was designed to replace the first stage of a traditional rocket used to launch a craft from Earth’s surface. When WhiteKnight reached its target altitude, SpaceShipOne was released from its mothership and a dedicated rocket on SpaceShipOne provided the second-stage boost, driving the spaceship up to its suborbital goal.
Demand for mirrors is not as robust as before, Fitch says. However, the residential market remains very strong, evidenced by new orders for glass bathroom shower doors.
TITANIUM cut burs are the latest addition to PFERD’s Carbide Bur line-up. TITANIUM cut is for machining hard titanium alloys (with tensile strength greater than 500 N/mm2). TITANIUM cut’s tooth geometry generates stock removal rates up to 60% higher than conventional cross-cut burs, according to the company. This results in a smooth milling action with reduced vibrations.
“While we usher in a new visual identity, FABTECH remains committed to delivering a high-quality, innovative event experience,” added Mark Hoper, FABTECH show co-manager and FMA senior vice president of media and expositions. “The show will continue to meet the demands of the industry and showcase not only what’s new, but what’s next.”
Fields said the company’s machine controls have also changed. “Our controls have evolved into a complete intelligence system to minimize downtime and provide a ‘predictive maintenance warning’…With predictive, you can plan the maintenance after the job is finished.”
With my (former) 4-door Suzuki Sidekick, you just removed the head restraints to get the front seats to lie flat. It helped to have the stick shift in a forward position.
The 3rd dimension of waterjet cutting with ByJet Flex Bystronic is expanding the spectrum of applications of the ByJet Flex with a new 3D cutting head. Now users can upgrade the machine platform from 2D to 3D technology at any time. This opens up new business fields for 3D cutting, but simultaneously allows competitiveness in the 2D cutting business to be maintained. As a result you are able to process beveled edges up to an angle of 45 degrees and straight edges with a high level of productivity.
Still works out to about a penny per minute (if you buy your D cells in bulk.), about 5x more than I pay for electricity to run my whole house.
“Assimilation is a double-edged sword. Since starting my company I’m more vocal about having diversity, specifically black people, integrated into brands and conversations, primarily in regards to campaigns and products that are heavily geared toward the black community. For example, I think there is an influx of campaigns shot in primarily urban areas but there lacks the same diversity on the team. My question is, who can speak from that point of view authentically, or is this an aesthetic? It is imperative to use the talents of black people that are driving these conversations from their points of view to their community nationwide and globally.”—Sandrine Charles, founder, Sandrine Charles Consulting
“At EuroBlech, some OEM customers demonstrated cutting systems using IPG’s 8 kilowatt fiber lasers. One of our customers has promised a demonstration of a 12 kilowatt fiber cutter at the Fabtech show in November 2014.”
