Maybe clean the residue with isopropanol BEFORE scouring the
surface---otherwise you could introduce oil into crevices that it'll
be hard to get out of.
Then sandpaper, and maybe one more isopropanol wipe for good measure.

  I happen to use some of the quick setting JBweld today. I misspoke, 
it is not clear, grayish and black for the two parts. It may be just 
carbon black but who knows.


Almost every hardware store has Devcon products, slow setting and fast. 
At least some are clear. Sorry for the confusion. IIRC Devcon was pretty 
much the first entry into small tubes of 2 part epoxy.

Cleaned up with acetone of course.

Previous attempts to glue then in place with super glue were very short

The go-2 lasted about 2 years.

What sort of glue can I use that can withstand an oily environment of

They all contain a super strength for its size, ferrite based bias 
magnet, and its close to diamond in hardness. I'm not surprised it 
damaged the teeth that crushed it. Given enough time they will probably 
wear back silent. Might be measured in years though.

Some of the resultant powder could be removed in an ultrsonic cleaner but 
it would have to be a strong one, with a magnet in the bottom to collect 
the magnetic dust before it sticks to the gear again.

My local Ace up the slab 20 some miles in Bridgeport folded a couple 
years back, so my closest is Lowes in Buckhannon, also about 20 miles, 
NAPA and TSC are the locals, but TSC has almost nothing in glues except 
maybe an old carb of jbweld, Advance Auto might be worth checking, next 
door to TSC. I've got to hit wallies for Dee some more yogurt yet today 
so I'll check there and Advance while I'm out. In the meantime the 
encoder is under clamps with some jbweld but I got to trace and restore 
the ats667 wiring for the last one that came loose.  Amazingly it did 
not grind up the ats667's. Even loose in the slots they were trapped in 
the pockets well enough to protect them from major damage.  That faint 
knocking sound? Me, knocking on wood while I took it out. lol.

Too late Bruce, washed with acetone and plumbers purple primer and is 
under clamps atm, some added scratches with my pocket knife and a wee 
bit of jbweld.  We'll see if its still in time in the morning. I put the 
first one back in with lots of goop, so if the quadrature's no good, I 
can cut it loose and shim it one way or the other.

2020-02-11 Thread Chris Albertson
I have never tested WB Weld with a magnet.   I have a bunch of powerfull
magnets around and never thought to see if one would stick to a tube of JB
Weld.

But I've used other epoxy systems.  You can mix many things with epoxy, up
to over 80% by volume and the composite is MUCH stronger than pure epoxy.
JB uses metal but it is much more common to use glass or carbon fiber or
silica powder.   I have a container of "milled fiber" that is basically
glass dust as fine as baking flour.  That stuff mixed with epoxy turns out
about as hard as glass.

Used this why the epoxy is not so much a glue but a part that is shaped by
the space it filles, hence the advice to cut a key or retaining grooves.

Cleaning with acetone will result in a good epoxy bond.  Cleaning with
isopropyl alcohol will result in an excellent epoxy bond.  Commercial
acetone, at least in the US, is recovered from industrial processes. 
It's distilled, but a trace amount of the waste oil remains in the
acetone after the distillation process and will leave a slight oily film
on your parts after the acetone evaporates.  It's not enough to feel or
see, but it's enough to prevent the best possible epoxy bond.

Maybe remove most of the oily gunk with acetone, scrub with 60-100 grit
sandpaper to create a rough surface for the epoxy to grab, then flood
with isopropyl alcohol to thoroughly degrease the part prior to applying
epoxy.  I'll sometimes use a clean blue paper shop towel or toothbrush
with the alcohol at first if some physical scrubbing is still needed. 
I'll finish the job with a spray bottle with isopropyl alcohol to blast
off the last traces of oil, allowing the alcohol and suspended oil to
drip off the part, and then I don't touch the part with my bare hands. 
You've made your own printed circuit boards and the process is similar
to the final step of cleaning the bare copper board before the etch
resist process.  When the board is clean of oxides and oil free, the
solvent will uniformly wet the board, drip off the bottom edge, and the
board will dry from the top down leaving a matte finish.

Pro Tip:  for the very best bond when using a filled epoxy, first paint
the bare surface with a thin layer of raw epoxy (resin and hardener)
before applying the filled epoxy (such as JB Weld).  The unfilled epoxy
can more easily penetrate the fine scratches on the substrate, and the
filled epoxy then binds to the unfilled epoxy.  That's a tip from people
who build composite fiberglass airplanes.

AFIK Araldite is a non-filled epoxy. I've always taken that as the Brit 
name for plain epoxy.  OTOH JB also make a clear 5 min expoy as do 
others. I grew up with a  quart of (Shell at the tme) Epon828 in the 
cupboard. Handy stuff. I once mixed an epoxy using tri-mellitc  (sp??) 
anhydride  as a catalyst. Beautiful yellow color and good to 300-400 F. 
That was about 60 years ago so spelling, etc is iffy.

What sort of glue can I use that can withstand an oily environment
of light 00w20 for many years?

My bet would be on Araldite or the equivalent of JB Weld.
I would roughen the aluminium surface, and try to give it an undercut
'key' of some sort. I would do the same with any plastic. I might even
put some fine copper wire around the package and leave flying ends so
that they too would provide some extra security if they are embedded
in the epoxy.


Thanks Marcus, thats two votes for JBW now. I'll get some fresh stuff and
give it a try.

Cheers, Gene Heskett

Yep! As long as your environment doesn't  have chlorinated solvents you 
are OK. Even my Ace Hdwe carries it.

acetone and then filling its pocket in the bracket with shoe goop, same
stuff as go-2.  And tomorrow I'll do the same with the other.

Cleaned up with acetone of course.

Previous attempts to glue then in place with super glue were very short
lived, loose in a week.  Ditto with gelled super glue.

The go-2 lasted about 2 years.

What sort of glue can I use that can withstand an oily environment of

Thanks all.

These gear tooth sensors use a couple of tricks that allow them to
automatically compensate for installation variables - hysteresis,
automatic gain control, etc.  The electronics after the Hall effect
sensors accentuate the difference in the signals.  Rather than having a
fixed threshold, they're adaptive.  I was almost sure that was the case
for your part but I double checked with the datasheet.

https://www.allegromicro.com/en/Products/Sense/Magnetic-Speed/Transmission-Sensor-ICs/ATS667

 "High-resolution peak detecting DACs are used to set the
 adaptive switching thresholds of the device. Hysteresis in
 the thresholds reduces the negative effects of any anomalies
 in the magnetic signal associated with the targets used in
 many automotive applications."

Unless you completely bury the sensor in JB Weld, you should be OK. 
It's designed for automotive applications.  It'd probably work beneath a
couple of millimeters of JB Weld.

[Emc-users] question about glue

2020-02-11 Thread Gene Heskett
Greetings all;

I went tp play with the lathe after reboot the rpi4 with cpu_freq raised 
to 800 megs.

All of a sudden the spindle tach got noisy, then quit. removeing the 
heads lid, I could see a good coat of the 5w20 I've been useing for 
spindle oil had flung out of the side face of the bronze bearing and 
given my encoder assembly a good coat of it.

Removeing it for a better look I found 2 of the 667's loose with signs of 
the bull gear touching them, with one having vibrated enough to break 
its wraping wire connections. They were glued into pockets machined in 
the mounting bracket which if the glue worked had them spaced about 5 
thou away from the bull gear in a curved alu bracket made of of 7075 
scrap. I've made a wooden c clamp with a #6 wood screw which is 
currently sitting with the point of the screw in the middle of the face 
of the loose index generating 667 after the alu was well washed by 
acetone and then filling its pocket in the bracket with shoe goop, same 
stuff as go-2.  And tomorrow I'll do the same with the other.

Cleaned up with acetone of course.

Previous attempts to glue then in place with super glue were very short 
lived, loose in a week.  Ditto with gelled super glue.

The go-2 lasted about 2 years.

What sort of glue can I use that can withstand an oily environment of 
light 00w20 for many years?

Thanks all.
