For the Kid in All of Us ‰

The term “outreach” isn’t typically associated with our professional lives. When I think of outreach, I think of church or a volunteer organization. There are plenty of opportunities and organizations to choose from; just throw a stone in any direction and you’ll hit a target. As a member of IFPS’s Chapter 49 & 50 in my seventh year, I’m proud to have been a part of outreach in a way I never imagined as a fluid power professional. If your chapter is looking for ways to benefit your local community, you’re in luck, as our chapter has done this for years. This is how it started. If you’ve ever been to a local chapter meeting, chances are you’ve met a fluid power vendor (or are one) and that vendor’s (or your – eek!) competitor. That can be a Scott Gower, CFPS tricky scenario to navigate for everyone involved. IFPS Chapter 49 & 50 – Our solution to that issue came in the form of a high Treasurer, Past President school student. Our chapter treasurer, Ryan Remmers, (sgower@gulfcontrols.com) had a son who was involved in FIRST, a robotics competition. The goal at the high school level is to build a robot within certain specifications and pilot it remotely, coordinating tasks with other teams while trying to outscore opponents. I highly recommend checking out www.usfirst.org for ways to volunteer anywhere in the world. The budget for a team’s competition season can be as much as $20,000 or more. Teams fundraise with activities such as car washes and bake sales. As we were discussing upcoming chapter meeting topics, Ryan suggested the chapter donate funds to local FIRST teams that were in need. This was terrific, as it instantly hit several points for a chapter’s existence:

• Users of fluid power + competitors + small meeting room = potential hornet’s nest! • Outreach provides a reason for a chapter to exist and a task that everyone, regardless of professional position, can focus on and give to equally. • Big key: With outreach, you can influence your community within your profession and pass along skills to kids. How cool is that? We invited three FIRST teams to our November 2007 meeting and asked them to make a presentation. Each team told us about “Gracious Professionalism” (see the website for more information), details of last year’s robot, different jobs and their requirements (programmers, pilots, mechanical designers), and all about team spirit. It was a blast to see the enthusiasm about robotics and in our case, fluid power. Teams are usually allowed an air compressor and a reason to use an actuator, an example being shooting a basketball at a hoop. We ended up giving away more than $3,000 that night! After the teams left our meeting, we were all in shock as to how much fun this event was. We’ve done this every year since and have donated more than $18,000 total. Please contact me with any questions. Everyone associated with our chapter would tell you that outreach is worth your time. Imagine finding an opportunity to help your community via your profession…it’s right in front of you.

indicating that strong demand for its commercial airplanes and a healthy backlog are behind the company’s decision to keep increasing production rates. According to Randy Tinseth, vice president of marketing for Boeing’s Commercial Airplanes, passenger traffic is growing faster than capacity; utilization rates and airline load factors are at historic levels; and airlines continue to replace their older, less fuel-efficient airplanes. Boeing’s 737 program is currently in the process of increasing its production rate to 38 airplanes per month and will go to 42 per month in the first half of 2014. The 777 program just ramped up production to a record 8.3 airplanes per month (100 per year), and the 787 program plans to increase its current 5 per month rate to 10 per month by the end of 2013. www.boeing.com

Keys for a Successful Content Marketing Campaign

‰ Online marketing and search engine optimization (SEO) used to be all about banner ads, paid link building, email campaigns, and pay-per-click. While those things are still used, to be truly relevant to today’s consumer, you must add strategic content marketing in the SEO space to the mix.

SEO refers to anything Internet-related that is based on organic results. In other words, it’s when someone goes to his or her favorite search engine and types in a keyword or phrase related to what you offer and your company or product appears naturally in the results. Making sure your information is visible in the search is important and plays a huge role in the art of communicating with your customers without selling them. It’s about creating fresh, relevant, and unique content through your blog and social media that reaches your ideal customers and enables you to earn a presence in the SEO space.

By Jen Alsip

For any business, content marketing is one of the most important online activities to enhance SEO ranking. Unfortunately, many are not fully utilizing it because they lack an understanding of the concept, impact, and necessity of content marketing. As a result, companies frequently get stuck in the old way of doing SEO, which entailed writing keyword-heavy content tailored for search engines, versus the new way of doing SEO, which is writing engaging content for the readers. It’s about focusing on user intent, which takes a little more time but yields great results.

In order to fully leverage your content-marketing activities, follow these three simple steps.

Identify personas for your target audience. You likely have a target audience for your products/services, and often the audience is quite broad, such as “women age 35-50 who have kids” or “Baby Boomers” or “men age 18-40 who like sports.” While there are certain characteristics that go across the entire target audience, there are also many subsets of people (called personas) within the target. For example, using the “women age 35-50 who have kids” target audience, you could have specific personas of “married, working mom,” “stay-at-home mom,” “single, working mom,” etc. Each of these personas within your target audience has very different interests and will respond to specific content. Someone who is younger with pre-school kids may be looking for more engaging content, whereas an older working woman with teens may be more responsive to the technical information you can provide. Therefore, identify the various personas within your target audience so you can reach and engage each group.

Concentrate on engaging your audience. Engaging your audience means getting them to share your information with others via their social media channels, comment on your blog posts to create conversations, or click to your marketing pages to learn more and ultimately make a purchase decision. It’s about getting your readers to take some sort of action without pressuring them to do so. Today’s readers don’t want to feel pressured to do anything. So the engagement needs to be

Create a targeted and consistent blog. The purpose of your blog should be to connect with and engage readers by providing value to them through relevant content. After all, when readers like the information you provide, they are more apt to return to your site and ultimately purchase what you offer. The key is being able to provide usable content for all the personas you’ve identified. Staying with the “women age 35-50 with kids” example, you may write a narrative blog entitled “The Best Toy I Ever Purchased” to reach the stay-at-home mom persona, and the next day you may write a technical blog entitled “The Safest Way to Clean Electronic Toys” to reach the working mom persona. Each blog would have a different tone based on the persona you’re targeting. In addition to providing relevant content, being consistent in your blogging activity is important. Whether you post something daily, three times a week, or four times a month will depend on the topic and your readers. The key is keeping your schedule consistent—doing the same number of posts every week. Posting a blog every day for a month and then not doing anything for two months can hurt your SEO efforts. For most businesses, doing two to three blog posts per week is sufficient.

natural. Even the search engines have changed their search algorithms to make the results more innate based on what a user would naturally do. Therefore, putting a link within your blog post to a page on your site that’s related to a product you’re talking about is totally fine and recommended. Someone would naturally click on that page since they’re reading a post about the topic. But putting in eight different links with optimized anchor text that either all go to the same page or to one specific product is the epitome of putting pressure on a reader. Additionally, when you keep the focus on engagement and categorize your blog posts correctly, your posts can show when someone is looking at your products. In other words, if someone is shopping and comes across your product, they can see that you wrote a blog post about the product and click on it to learn more information, which can then influence their buying decision.

Content marketing is a way to expand your reach, build relevancy in the search engines to gain traffic and visibility, and convert readers into buyers. Realize, though, that content marketing is just one piece of having a winning online marketing strategy. No single technique or strategy will make your business profitable. However, when you combine content marketing with all the other online and offline marketing activities you do, you’ll soon realize the success and profits you deserve.

Quality, Service, and Quality, Service, and Dependability... Dependability... Guaranteed 1969 Guaranteed since since 1969

‰

A company has a machine that uses 50 cfm at 100 psi. Size an air compressor in SCFM that will have a duty cycle of 40%. Then size an air receiver in gallons that would supply that SCFM for three (3) minutes with the pressure dropping from 100 psi to 80 psi.

Previous Problem

Winner: 100 lb of pull

Pivot

Available pressure: 115 psi Cylinder rod is 1-1/2" with a 4" stroke

Roll of paper with a brake

115 psi

What standard size cylinder is needed to maintain tension?

Solution: Here we have 100 lbs. of pull on this roll of paper. Looking at the design, we have a 2:1 mechanical disadvantage on the end of the arm that equals a force of 200 lbs. The arm has a 3:1 mechanical disadvantage. That is equal to a 6:1 disadvantage. Step ONE: Force x force distance = effort x effort distance. That is 200 lbs. x 9" = 3 x load on the cylinder. Two hundred x 9 / 3 = 600 lbs. on the cylinder. Step TWO: Now use F = PA where the force is 600 lbs. and the pressure is 115 psi. Six hundred / 115 = 5.2 square inches needed for the cylinder. Step THREE: Because we are pulling on the rod end of the cylinder, we will need to find the effective rod end area. The rod is 1 ½". Area equals 1.5² x 0.7854 = 1.767. Now we need to add the area of the cylinder and the area of the rod together to find the area of the piston. 5.2 + 1.767 = 6.98 in². Step FOUR: Working backwards with A = D² x 0.7854 is 6.98 / 0.7854 = 8.89 and now we take the √ (square root) to find D and that equals 2.98 diameter. We will round that up to a standard 3-inch cylinder. Note: The “Lightning Reference” 8th edition on page 136 will show standard size cylinders. Go down the area column and look for the closes area equal to 5.2 or slightly greater. Be sure you are using the pull and not the push of any cylinder. Three inch cylinder with 1.5" rod, you will see the area is 5.3 sq. in. – that is just slightly greater that the 5.2 sq. in. that we need. With this design, one inch of movement on the cylinder will take up six inches of slack in the roll of paper.

Plant 6, Standard Aero’s new aerospace test facility near Winnipeg International Airport. The 40,000-squarefoot facility houses two compressed air systems that were optimized for maximum energy efficiency while they were still on the drawing boards for major long-term savings.

Innovative Design at Aerospace Saves

www.fluidpowerjournal.com | www.ifps.org

By Ron Marshall, Compressed Air Challenge

‰

Two compressed air systems in Standard Aero’s CF-34 engine overhaul and test facility at its Winnipeg aerospace complex were installed that have virtually eliminated the high operating costs of typical compressed air systems during facility start-up and is now saving nearly $46,000 per year. Design elements included the installation of a variable-speed drive compressor; energy-efficient dryers, filters, and drains; and large high-pressure air storage with off-peak recovery. In the initial planning stages, facility engineers were faced with a dilemma. The new facility needed a large compressed air system that could supply high production consumption in the future, however the initial facility air consumption as output ramped up over a number of years would be low, requiring a smaller system. A separate air system was also needed to supply a very large, but short duration, air demand during engine testing of CF-34 jet engines. The engineers knew that installing two oversized systems would significantly increase initial operating costs, but they needed to be sure the system had enough reserve capacity to handle all possible conditions. Previous practice was to produce compressed air using compressors running in modulating mode and then drying the air using fixed-cycle desiccant dryers. In modulating mode, a typical compressor consumes no less than 70% of its full load power even though it may only be producing a small fraction of its full capacity. Fixed-cycle desiccant dryers consume a constant supply of compressed air, about 15% of the rated dryer output capacity, to regenerate the internal desiccant beads that strip the moisture from the compressed air. The company installed a variable-speed drive compressor, rather than a modulating compressor, to supply the air needed for process machinery and tools in the facility. VSD compressors have excellent turndown characteristics, which means a compressor sized larger for high future loads can be installed initially but without paying the penalty of high operating costs.

One of two massive 10,000-gallon air storage tanks for the engine test air system. The compressor runs only at night, storing air in the tanks during low facility demand without racking up excessive demand charges.

Since specialized facility processes require air to be supplied at -40 degree dewpoint, a desiccant dryer was installed, but with an energy management control option. The control constantly monitors the dewpoint of the dryer output and turns off the dryer purge air until the internal desiccant beads are fully saturated with moisture. This significantly reduces air consumption, especially when facility airflows are much lower than the dryer rating or when compressed air moisture content is lower than normal. Dual dryer inlet filters were also installed to reduce the pressure drop normally associated with coalescing filters by 75%. Standard Aero chose to install a large 3,800-gallon storage receiver to stabilize facility air pressure and minimize the number of compressor starts. A pressure/flow controller was installed to maintain a constant regulated air pressure in the facility to protect critical processes and to reduce the artificial demand caused by higher-than-required facility air pressures. A second compressed air system was required to supply air required to get the CF-34 jet engines the facility overhauls up to speed before they can be fired with fuel for testing. This application requires a very high flow of air but for a short durationâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;only two or three times per day. One way to supply this air is to produce it all using a large air compressor, however if this were done, a 250-hp unit would be required. Rather than purchasing a large compressor, the engineers designed a system to store air produced by a smaller 75-hp compressor in two large 10,000-gallon storage receivers at 160 psi. This volume of storage was carefully sized to supply all of the engine test needs throughout a worst-case scenario engine test without needing to run the installed 75-hp, 160-psi air compressor during the day. The unit is scheduled to run at night during off-shift, thereby avoiding high electrical demand charges. The use of a thermal mass refrigerated dryer rather than a fixed-cycle desiccant dryer saves significant operating costs because the air compressor does not need to constantly run to feed dryer purge. The system was measured and verified a few months after initial start-up and has resulted in an 86% savings over the base case worth of $45,880 per year. With local utility financial incentives applied, the simple payback for the project calculates to under 1.5 years. This project is an example of the high savings that are available by applying the principles contained in Compressed Air Challengeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Best Practices for Compressed Air Systems Manual available at www. compressedairchallenge.org.

2013 Fluid Power Systems Conference November 19-21, 2013 • Doubletree Hotel, Rosemont, IL Hosted by the International Fluid Power Society (IFPS), the FPDA Motion and Control Network (FPDA), and the National Fluid Power Association (NFPA)

Reliable and Efficient Hydraulics and Pneumatics for Today and Tomorrow Fluid power (hydraulics and pneumatics) is used in dozens of industries and hundreds of applications to precisely control the movement of machinery and material. Yet many engineers and technicians working in those industries do not fully understand the design concepts critical to developing efficient fluid power systems and the diagnostic and maintenance techniques essential to keeping those systems operating at peak efficiency. These concepts and techniques can result in significant energy and cost savings for companies that use hydraulics or pneumatics, as well as for the customers they serve, making fluid power a more competitive technology choice. To help companies take advantage of these opportunities, three leading fluid power organizations— the International Fluid Power Society, the FPDA Motion and Control Network, and the National Fluid Power Association—will be hosting an educational conference at the Doubletree Hotel in Rosemont, IL on November 19-21, 2013. Professionals responsible for designing and/or maintaining hydraulic and pneumatic systems in industrial settings or mobile applications should plan to attend.

The conference will offer: ● Design workshops to communicate why energy efficiency and reliability are increasingly a concern of machine builders and the role of fluid power in meeting those needs and balancing cost issues; ●

●

Hands-on instruction into practical maintenance techniques from fluid power component manufacturers, distributors, and system integrators;

Facilitated roundtable discussions, where peers can share specific challenges associated with their industry and applications, learn about fluid power standards, best practices in building efficient and reliable fluid power systems, and the future of fluid power;

Networking events, including the Innovation Showcase, to help participating engineers and technicians engage with technology providers from fluid power manufacturing and distribution companies to learn the newest, cutting edge developments in energy efficient and reliable developments in hydraulics and pneumatics.

valves has been used in hydraulic systems for many years. They are commonly known as two-port check valves. In this form, they serve as a one-way valve, allowing free flow in one direction while blocking flow in the reverse direction. With some refinements, these valves can be controlled to overcome the normal blocking action, thereby allowing control of flow in both directions. This is the basis of the control concept known as “cartridge valves.” This Web seminar will discuss the sizing and applications of directional, pressure, and flow control slip-in cartridge valves. It will also discuss the manifolds required when applying these components in a modern industrial or mobile hydraulic system.

achine builders and their customers are often at odds over machine pricing and how to address the costs associated with energy-efficient machine designs. The customer, of course, will demand the lowest possible price, and so machine builders may be overlooking opportunities to provide enhanced energy-saving options as often this comes at additional upfront costs on the machine. In competitive situations, this added cost often means losing the order. The customer, by looking for the lowest price, may not consider the long-term cost savings of machine operation by purchasing equipment with enhanced energy-saving features built in. The machine builder’s job is to convince a customer that the added costs of enhanced energy-saving designs are worth the upfront cost. Certainly most machine builders employ design practices with energy conservation in mind. For example, the use of energy-efficient motors and “shutting down” upstream machine sections during idle times are simple low-cost means of allowing the builder to state their machine is energy efficient. Of course, customers like to buy machines that are stated to be energy efficient; after all, we are all concerned about “sustainability” and being “green.” However, being “green” can cost some “green,” and customers need to be educated about the benefits of spending a little more up front to achieve long-term savings. The machine builder has to demonstrate a reasonable rate of return for the added cost

of enhanced energy-efficient designs. It may surprise some that the costs of optimizing a machine design is not that great compared to the savings potential that can be realized, especially in conserving air consumption. An enhanced pneumatics design entails applying stringent design practices and utilizing components designed to save energy. Air pressure on most machinery provides the physical force for many machine functions. It is plumbed to each machine in our factories and yet we often forget how expensive it is to produce. For our analysis here, we will assume that electric costs are $0.10 kW/hr, the machine operates 8,760 hrs/yr, and that the air compressor motor has 90% efficiency with a 3.5:1 CFM/bhp ratio. Calculating the cost to operate a machine is as simple as determining the average air usage rate and multiplying that by the cost to produce each CFM of air. Let’s talk about cost savings that can be had by designing a machine to minimize air consumption. There are many items to consider when designing a machine for optimal usage of air. In order to fully understand all of the options available to achieve savings, SMC Corp. of America offered its services to analyze our standard design case packers. Working together, several techniques and design changes were identified that can provide substantial energy, and therefore, cost savings. Analysis is provided based on air consumption of both new and used identical case packers. Results given herein are both empirical and theoretical.

1. Optimize line size and length. Every time a cylinder actuates, the lines feeding the cylinder are pressurized and de-pressurized. No work is generated, and therefore the energy used to pressurize the lines is lost. The larger the volume of the line, the more energy is lost. By “right sizing” the lines for diameter and length for the specific task, we will save energy. Use vendor-supplied sizing programs as an aid in design.

2. Optimize cylinder bore and stroke. As we know, the bore of the cylinder determines the amount of force that is applied—the larger the bore, the larger the force with the same pressure. If an application only requires 245 lbs force (with minimal safety built in), why go to the next size bore cylinder and generate 353 lbs force? This will put extra stress on components and potentially cause premature wear and failure. Unused stroke has a similar consequence as oversized pressure lines; the extra volume of the cylinder not being used for stroke is simply lost energy.

3. Regulate the return (non-power) stroke to a lower pressure. Adding point regulators on each device to reduce the pressure on the return stroke can be a significant savings. On average, this can result in savings up to 25%. This is simple and costs little to do. See Fig. 1.

4. Regulate and Monitor Overall Machine Pressure. A common occurrence when a machine hits the factory floor is that the main machine pressure regulator seems to get turned up. This may be done for several reasons, but the typical ones are either the air supply to the machine is inadequate or the belief the machine will run better. The root cause of the former is simply that the line feeding the machine or the compressor is undersized. For the latter, we can control that. Overpressurization is simply lost energy and can lead to premature machine wear with the increased forces being applied to machine mechanisms (Fig. 2). By using the machine controller to monitor the pressure after the machine main regulator for both under- and overpressure conditions, the machine can shut itself down and present the appropriate warnings to the operator. Also, by utilizing pressure

factory prior to sending to our customer and two identical machines that have been in production for about two years. The difference in data between new and used machines brought to light differences in flow and pressures as a result of leaks, overpressurization, and other misadjustments. Additionally, SMC provided recommendations on additional or different hardware and techniques as indicated herein with estimates of annual machine savings that can be achieved. The results are significant. If the machine is designed per SMC recommendations, the estimated added price to the machine is approximately $7,900 (excludes R&D engineering) including hardware, labor, overhead, G&A, etc. The estimated annual savings (including the measured losses due to leaks) is approximately $5,700/yr per case packer, a payback of about 16 months. The answer is: yes, it is worth it. Especially with an increased awareness across all industries of the need to improve sustainability and reduce energy consumption, offering an energysavings package can become a differentiator to making a sale for the machine builder and having a happy customer. Everyone wins.

The speed of device movement should be controlled through the use of high-quality and tamper-proof flow controls. Often machine subsystem flow controls are increased in an attempt to get more “speed” out of a machine. However, once the machine design speed is reached, speeding up individual mechanisms may increase machine “speed” but may actually hurt total machine throughput over time. There will likely be an increase in the frequency and duration of downtime events due to jams, as well as an increase of defective products being produced, not to mention increased wear and tear and resultant downtime due to the machine breaking down. For those of you familiar with overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), you understand the cost of such machine “meddling.”

‰ economic report

By Chad Moutray, Chief Economist, National Association of Manufacturers

Global Manufacturing Update

‰ June 14, 2013 – The World Bank released a report that said the global economy appears to be transitioning toward a period of more stable, but slower growth. Some of the worldwide financial risks that existed a year or so ago—namely stemming from Europe—have lessened. Yet, more stability does not necessarily mean rapid growth. The World Bank forecasts global GDP growth of 2.2% in 2013, with faster growth of 3.0% and 3.3% in 2014 and 2015, respectively. These

figures represent a modest pullback from earlier predictions, reacting to recent weaknesses in the marketplace. The United States is predicted to grow 2.0% this year, with 7.7% real GDP growth in China and the Euro area shrinking by 0.6%. The latest data support this analysis. The JPMorgan Global Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) was somewhat higher, up from 50.4 in April to 50.6 in May. This suggests that the global economy is growing very slowly. The Eurozone showed some improvements, even as the continent remains mired in a recession and its PMI values have stayed below 50 for 22 consecutive months. The Canadian economy also rebounded, with its PMI data shifting from a slight contraction in March to modest growth in May. With Canada as our largest trading partner, increased activity north of the U.S. border will be important for reviving exports. Meanwhile, the Chinese economy, which had seen some progress since October in its production

figures, began to slow down, with its PMI declining from 50.4 to 49.2. Several other industrial indicators also reflected some deceleration in activity in China. Beyond economic indicators, there have been a number of headlines recently about volatility in the global equity markets. Traders appear to be reacting to the expected “tapering” of quantitative easing in the United States, and foreign exchange markets have also moved on interest rate and policy changes worldwide. Illustrating this point, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has shifted by over 122 points on average each day (both up and down) since Memorial Day, with wide swings in other markets, as well. Manufacturing activity in the United States has been quite sluggish recently, both in terms of production and employment. Industrial production has increased just 1.6% between May 2012 and May 2013. Slowing export sales no doubt have played a part in the recent deterioration of manufacturers’ sentiment. U.S.-manufactured goods exports have risen only 0.9% during the first four months of 2013 relative to the same time period in 2012. Goods exports to Europe were down significantly due to the recession, but even where trade is higher, growth rates have been up only slightly. Meanwhile, rising imports to the United States have widened the trade deficit. On the policy front, U.S. trade talks in the Asia-Pacific and with Europe are moving forward in significant ways, while efforts are intensifying to achieve progress in multilateral customs discussions. Key U.S. trade officials are nearing their final confirmation in the Senate. With the expected confirmation of Michael Froman as the new U.S. Trade Representative, talks on renewing U.S. trade-negotiating authority are expected to get serious this summer. U.S. manufacturing concerns with India’s discriminatory industrial policies have reached a new level, with the U.S. industry urging the Administration to resolve these issues quickly. Canada prepares to retaliate against the United States over meat-labeling rules. Export control reform moves forward for spacecraft systems and related items.

FIRST® Tech Challenge (FTC®) World Championship FTC is designed for head-to-head competition. Teams use a combination of motors, controllers, wireless communications, metal gears, and sensors, including infrared tracking (IR) and magnet seeking, to design, build, and program robots to compete in an alliance format against other teams. The object of this year’s game, named RING IT UP!SM, is to score more points than an opponent by placing plastic rings on pegs on a center rack. Teams will be challenged to detect special “weighted” rings to earn them bonus points. Matches last two minutes and 30 seconds, and begin with a 30-second autonomous period followed by a two-minute driver-controlled period. The final 30 seconds of the driver-controlled period is the “end game,” where each team can score bonus points by lifting up their alliance partner’s robot off the game floor to a maximum height of 24 inches.
