Depending on the needs of the design, couplings can either be rigid or flexible. Rigid couplings are for well-constrained systems where the two shafts are not likely to get out of perfect axial alignment. Rigid couplings include sleeve or muff couplings which generally clamp to the shafts with grub screws and which may have a keyway machined into the bore for better torque transmission.

So, on this topic, let’s get our termonology aligned. We call “slip” when the requested material does not match up with the actual material. And we call “grind” when the material flow stop to a near 0%. While the bondtech feeders are great, they experience slip, just like any feeder. Compared to moving without a hotend attached, this is generally in the 20% range. If your back pressure is constant and the force required to get the material from the spool is constant then you can calibrate this away (which is what everyone does)

To get some answers, I took a road trip to Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, to visit a factory owned by the auto supplier, Autoneum, where I got to see how the company manufactures carpet.

Although Ing. Klauer joined BMW Motorrad from its parent company’s automobile division only five years ago, he insists that this all-new system owes nothing to the Vanos variable valve timing technology developed 25 years ago for use on BMW cars, nor the Valvetronic variable valve lift system introduced in 2001, both of which were considered too bulky for motorcycle use. Instead, the R1250GS engine’s cylinder heads feature the all-new, highly innovative ShiftCam system, which combines both variable valve timing and differential valve lift, all in the same package, as a means of optimizing cam timing and duration for what you’re asking the engine to do. For part-throttle openings, or lower down in the rev range, the cam has a shorter lift and reduced duration, meaning the inlet valves are open less. But ask for more throttle or higher revs and the cam shifts sideways, bringing into play a higher lift, longer duration cam lobe, more suited to outright performance.

Right now I have one on the Z axis of my main 3D printer, I like it because it’s a rigid coupler but with a slight amount of give. Plus I can lift the gantry straight off the stepper for maintenance which is awesome.

Can you share your story of Grit and Success? First can you tell us a story about the hard times that you faced when you first started your journey?

Additionally, the variable configuration of the cam geometry also enables a variation in the inlet valves’ stroke. While the full-load cam provides maximum valve stroke, the partial-load cam delivers reduced stroke. There is also a phased differential opening between the left and right-hand inlet valves in each cylinder, in terms of both stroke and angular position. This phased shift means that the two inlet valves are opened a differential amount in terms of lift—i.e. one more than the other—and on a time-staggered basis. This helps create additional swirl for the incoming charge of air and fuel, and thus greater agitation of the mixture as it flows into the combustion chamber. This results in both improved combustion—so, a bigger bang—as well as a more complete burning of the fuel, thus ensuring reduced emissions and a claimed up to four percent lower fuel consumption versus the smaller capacity, less powerful R1200GS.CN

Whether such products are devices largely falls on their intended use and the manufacturer’s claims. Specific claims that would meet the definition of a medical device include:
