This webinar will detail what you need to know to be prepared for the many changes coming later this year under USMCA, the replacement for the NAFTA trade agreement between the United States, Mexico, and Canada. From understanding the new rules of origin and certification requirements to labor and environmental provisions of the new agreement, companies engaged in cross-border trade in North America, as well as companies considering new investments in the region, should plan to attend this webinar.

3D Printing Media Network Known by the acronym SLEDM (Selective LED-based Melting) (i.e., the targeted melting of metal powder using high-power LED light sources) a new technology developed at Graz University of Technology uses LED instead of laser or electron beam sources for the additive manufacturing of metal parts. The process optimizes 3D metal printing in terms of construction time, metal powder consumption, equipment costs and post-processing effort.

This online seminar will calculate and demonstrate the effect that shaft bending, torsional windup and tooth deflections have on loaded tooth contact on various configurations of parallel shaft spur and helical gearing. With the loaded tooth and shaft deflections identified in real life examples, tooth helix and profile modifications will be developed that, when properly manufactured and applied, will significantly improve loaded tooth mesh contact to support realistic load distribution factors used in rating of parallel shaft spur and helical gears. The process involves the application of commercially available software that models the loaded gear mesh in FEA. This evaluation and corrective action will promote optimization of power density with predictable fatigue life.

Today’s Motor Vehicles With much of the world unable or advised against going out in public, auto sales have fallen, leading to a $2 billion loss for Ford in the first quarter. And, with suppliers still deserving to be paid, loses will nearly triple to more than $5 billion in the second quarter, officials warned.

Autoweek The McLaren Speedtail promises, among other things, speed and a very long tail, but just what kind of sorcery was applied to creating its hybrid powertrain has been a bit of a mystery since the automaker first revealed the car itself. We knew that the Speedtail would pair a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine with some kind of an electric motor to achieve its combined 1,055 hp and 848 lb-ft of torque, but details of this hybrid creation remained murky.
