MBE / MBD Workshop: Enabling Your Digital Enterprise with Strategic Parts Management hosted by CADENAS PARTsolutions

Two-day immersive technical training course focused on re-using 3D CAD models from design to manufacture

Jennifer Herron, principal of Action Engineering, will lead a two-day immersive technical training course April 26-27, 2016 pertinent to the digital enterprises of mechanical and systems engineers in the Aerospace, Defense, Automotive, Medical, and other Product Development industries.

Workshop: Enabling Your Digital Enterprise
Online Registration: Here
This workshop will be a face-to-face, interactive education in re-using 3D CAD models from design to manufacture. The workshop will be hosted by CADENAS PARTsolutions in the great Los Angeles metro area.
Attendees will learn what, why, and how Model-Based Definition (MBD) and Model-Based Engineering (MBE) will optimize your business processes and enable your digital enterprise. Our style is to educate you fast and simply while explaining model-based philosophy, commercial and government standards that address model-based issues, and cover available technology with the goal of normalizing MBE/MBD expectations for all your organizations stakeholders. Day 1 focuses on business processes, rather than a particular CAD technology. Day 2 exposes all the necessary pieces of the digital enterprise puzzle and presents capabilities and maturity your organization needs to achieve MBE.
Topics (half-day each):
MBE Overview
Intro to MBD and 3D CAD models
MBE Implementation Techniques
Digital Enterprise Business Planning Guidance (Half-Day)

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
