Engineering Soft Ware And Stuff
#23
I wouldn't have to reverse engineer the housings, just as piston makers don't have to reverse engineer the pistons they use for other cars. really, if you think of it, to make a rotor wouldn't be that hard. the only thing is the cooling that would go on due to the oil inside the rotor not warming up as fast as the rotor would on start-up. i dont think it would be big, but others think that the difference in thermal expansion would lead to cracking. Also, more clearance would be needed, as aluminum expands more per degree of heat put in that iron would. So you think this could work? We should hook up on this one time. Also, where did you go to school? It sounds like niagara.

we use Visualmill / rams gold / master cam for our cnc table mill. and for ALL our 3D work we use RHINO, 2D is a combination of RHINO and cinema 4DXl ( I came from a 3D animation backbground and nurbs/bspline are about as low as I go in the curve level.. also all these programs can interpolate pretty well between eachother using IGES/3DM or ina pinch DXF ( splines ).. just my two cents on a small run & prototype setup..
