Is that a custom part or is it commercially available? I can't think where you would get a heat exchange with a high enough pressure rating?

Ideally its cast and will explode...knowing john though he'll just wright beauty on another robot and carry on the competition though

There are commercial available hydraulic heat exchangers, there are heat exchangers for petrochemical processes, and that's only the start of the list.
All perfectly rated for the pressures we work with, but non are suitable for our machines.
No, for something like this, it's custom work.
Yeah... castings... they crack.
Beauty 8 is going to be fun to drive! My first go will be in the first fight so I'll have to get up to speed pretty soon.![]()
Look who's come out to play
Is anyone traveling up either the M1 past Northampton ot the M6 past Rugby that would be willing to make a detour and pick me up from Market Harborough? Cover the extra fuel![]()
HardWired II is almost finished now, just got to put the removable link in securely (glue EC5 into a block of HDPE, bolt into top plate) and then it's all sorted. Problem is, I'm actually en route to Birmingham now - is there any chance that the Gadget Show is open for roboteers to use the pit area as a workshop for last minute things?
Well, not a full workshop but you know what I mean, I have a feeling the hotel won't like me drilling holes in this stainless in the room haha
We've had people practically rebuild their robots at the event, so you'll be fine.
Great, that's good to hear - thanks!
At least it'll not be the first one to need repairs on-site, especially after death-by-megabus...
Is there the opportunity to fix things post tech check too if it fails? I'm really worried about it, a lot more than I should be probably haha
