SIunit system
BULK MATERIALS
Air-slide conveyor sizing
Check conveying capacity, aeration demand, pressure allowance, blower duty and motor rating.
MACHINE DESIGN
Gear & shaft design
Explore spur-gear geometry, gearbox ratios and idealized shaft stress, deflection and speed.
CNC & MANUFACTURING
Threads, drilling & CNC cycles
Plan thread lead, tapping feed, drilling parameters, peck motion and idealized cycle time.
Preliminary tools support engineering judgement. Review the assumptions and limitations before using any result.

SEE THE RELATIONSHIP
Small changes. Different outcomes.
Two examples of the relationships behind the tools.
DEDUSTING & AIR
More airflow. More pressure demand.
+25% airflow+56% pressure loss
Pressure loss (% of baseline)
Airflow (% of baseline)
Relative pressure loss = relative airflow²
Cyclone example: fixed geometry, air density and pressure coefficient.
Example values
| Airflow (% of baseline) | Pressure loss (% of baseline) |
|---|---|
| 50% | 25% |
| 75% | 56% |
| 100% | 100% |
| 125% | 156% |
| 150% | 225% |
MACHINE DESIGN
Higher load. Shorter bearing life.
+25% bearing load51% of baseline life
Basic rating life (% of baseline)
Equivalent bearing load (% of baseline)
Relative basic life = relative load⁻³
Ball bearing example: fixed dynamic load rating and speed; basic L₁₀ life.
Example values
| Equivalent bearing load (% of baseline) | Basic rating life (% of baseline) |
|---|---|
| 75% | 237% |
| 100% | 100% |
| 125% | 51% |
| 150% | 30% |
