Driving predictability into the life-cycle of a product is not an easy thing to do. Coming from the aerospace industry, I have seen the birth and revision of many design practices/standards to account for those factors that impact fatigue life. With the right combination of stress intensification factors in design calculations (knock-down factors for stress life not withstanding), reliable predictions on fatigue life can be achieved - and those of us that fly frequently are thankful. Regardless, I really like the commitment of OMAX to facilitating speed and reliability for the customers that they serve - something in common with my company. In addition, the use of efficient direct drive pumps is spot-on in this energy-sensitive environment that we are in.
