camatv Posted February 20, 2015 Report Posted February 20, 2015 now make a set of 4 cyl cases with center drive off the crank and using a hayabusa or harley transmission!! sounds like a easy project !! keep it up! here is an idear for a project...? independent straight intakes using mikuni rubber flanges and a set of carb bowls tilted with large capacity and seperate high flow externally adjustable needle and seat from holley carbs. and the carbs are straight shot to reeds. larger mm carbs. look at 4 choke fcr carbs..

Glorfindel Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Posted February 24, 2015 Sorry guys, it's freezing here (-20-30C), so i'm waiting for better forecast to remove the plate... Quote
Glorfindel Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Posted February 24, 2015 You should make a custom water pump impeller or maybe even something bigger like a clutch cover or stator cover.Yup, those things are on my 'to do list'With graved name, maybe anodized. Quote
Glorfindel Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Posted February 24, 2015 I will make 1 thread for each project. With pics and everything . The plate is out! Will do some measurements tomorrow and probably start to make de 3d model on Catia v5! Quote
Glorfindel Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Posted February 25, 2015 I took measurments this morning! Going on Catia now. Quote
trickedcarbine Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 need one of those in the garage.... Quote
Glorfindel Posted February 28, 2015 Author Report Posted February 28, 2015 need one of those in the garage.... Yeah, a cmm is very usefull tp take holes positions and bolt circle pattern Quote
trickedcarbine Posted February 28, 2015 Report Posted February 28, 2015 Do they read as nice as a faro? Quote
Glorfindel Posted February 28, 2015 Author Report Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) Do they read as nice as a faro? Usually, a fixed cmm like this one is more precise than an 'arm 'type cmm. I'm talking about 1/100 000th of an inch here. Edited February 28, 2015 by Glorfindel Quote
blowit Posted February 28, 2015 Report Posted February 28, 2015 Usually, a fixed cmm like this one is more precise than an 'arm 'type cmm. I'm talking about 1/100 000th of an inch here. yeah the Faros probably have their place, mostly for digitizing non-critical components but i think the last one we tried had an accuracy of a couple thou which just does not cut it for most precision work. CMMs are really great tools. of course they are only as accurate as their quality controls.....mainly EXTREMELY well monitored temperature. When you get down in the microns, it is pretty easy to skew results with just the heat of your hand. I am not sure if you generated a point cloud a reconstructed in CAT. We usually do it a bit differently and use the CMM to define certain dimensions and those are hand input. Different way of doing it I suppose... Quote

Fixed cmm like the one we use are not usualy used to do cloud of points. We use it to measure fixwd feature like circle, or their position, lines etc. It's not like i want to copy a parts with complex surface, if so, i will use a lazer type 3d reverse prototyping scanner. But they are not at the same level, precision wize Quote
Glorfindel Posted March 3, 2015 Author Report Posted March 3, 2015 Job done. Now it's cnc programing time Quote
