<p>Vkirchner: /* 3D Models */</p> <hr /> <div>=Introduction=<br /> <br /> This page is dedicated to visual and performance modeling of the Liberator, OSE's open source, high-performance CEB press.<br /> <br /> =Finite Element Analysis=<br /> <br /> ==Calculation Symmetry==<br /> <br /> [[Image:CEB symmetry.jpg]]<br /> <br /> ==Bolt Strength==<br /> <br /> Bolt torquing can be measured by a torque wrench:<br /> <br /> http://www.overstock.com/Auto-Parts/3-8-inch-Ratcheting-Torque-Wrench/3142342/product.html?SEC_IID=29607<br /> <br /> ==3D Models==<br /> <br /> Starting to create the 3D model from previous sketches provided. We should take a look at using square washers on the back of the channels, they help to apply the forces evenly on the bolts and structure. <br /> <br /> *Where do I get these washers? Do they have ones that match the slope of the u-channel, or must I obtain them by cutting up another piece of u-channel? <br /> <br /> [[Image:CEB-Start.jpg|Start of the modeling]]<br /> <br /> [[Image:CEB-Start1.jpg|More views]]<br /> <br /> [[Image:Cylinder-Gladiator.jpg|See large image for part numbers]]<br /> <br /> [[Image:Hopper-Assy1.jpg|More views]]<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Marcin, I see from the video that you provided that you have modified the chamber to use a 1/4 plate on the side. What was your reasoning?<br /> <br /> *The top part of chamber is u-channel because it requires the strength. The bottom doesn't require the strength - as it is only the beginning of the compression stroke. Moreover, it needs to be longer so that it encloses the entire compression plate assembly.<br /> <br /> Thanks again for the additional construction videos, I will be traveling the first couple of days this week for business. I will get back to the frame details later this week. The compression chamber and hopper make a lot more sense after looking at the additional construction information. I have a couple of ideas for the mounting pins for the cylinders that could make disassembly a little easier. I'll get sketches to you later this week.<br /> <br /> <br /> I am using Rhino3D for the modeling. I have just loaded version 4.0, so to make sure that no issues revolve arounf functionality, version 3.0 is still used for the rendering.<br /> <br /> More details on the Rhino program can be found here. www.rhino3d.com</div>
