Using a single pneumatic valve manifold, engineers from Fanuc Robotics America (www.fanucrobotics.com) say they've created a paint spray robot that's simpler and easier to assemble.The new robot, ...

In the early 1970s, Edelbrock introduced a small-block Chevrolet intake manifold design that was unlike any previous concept for a V-type engine. They called it the "Tarantula" and it amounted to a ...

I’ve gained a lot of respect for (and interest in) the power of 3D printing custom car parts after chatting with a 3D designer. Today, another really cool perspective on this style of manufacturing ...

The intake manifold distributes air or air/fuel mixtures to the individual cylinders under varying engine speeds, loads, and environmental conditions. Whether the working flow is pure air, air/fuel, ...

Thanks to groundbreaking concepts such as generative design and topology optimization software, additive manufacturing is liberating design engineers in ways that were unfathomable even a decade ago.

3-D printing could very well be the solution for in vitro diagnostic instruments companies in need of once-costly fluidic manifold prototypes. Heidi Lechner, IDEX Corp. While fluidic manifolds can ...

Researchers at Purdue University's College of Engineering are conducting tests on a patented Tesla valve-inspired injection manifold design to improve the efficiency of rotating detonation engines ...

Internal combustion engines are fairly simply machines. When you break it down, they are nothing more than air pumps. When it comes to making horsepower and torque, the simple fact is the more air you ...
