    I’m an ISO9001, 14,27,45,50 and a few others, certified auditor. Just to be clear, having the certificate is not a guarantee of quality. It just means you measure and record everything very well. You can have an ISO14001 certificate (environmental management) for example and still burn tires in a field. As long as you have the paperwork… My advice, take ISO certificates with a grain of salt. (And it’s not that special anymore, many many, small companies have it nowadays. And almost all larger (more than 50 FTE) companies have it in the EU. It’s essentially a license to operate these days.)

I know many major brands would 1000% never be willing to do this! That said I'm hopeful we get to see more of this in person company rep style of video for other brand and product testing! Shout out to Harken and Rich for stepping up and standing behind their product and in front of Ryan's camera, all while their gear gets destroyed by a stranger from youtube! 😆👍

    "Hay John, there's this guy on RUclips who managed to break this thing at 114Kn. I'm lowering you down there, what do you think?"
    John: "🤔"...... "I think we should back it up with a second one" 😁
    Seriously, though that was amazing to watch! A compony that just hands over their new product for some RUclipsr to break test is pretty awesome to watch, too. I love the bit where he thinks over "OK, this thing is more broken then anything that I've ever seen.... and he wants to do another test?!?!?? OK!" This just bought my faith in Harken for the rest of my life!! I wish that ever company was this willing to let people in and let them see the "numbers" 👍👍👍👍👍👍

    • @huttj509

      I suspect another factor is "ok, this is not going to hit mbs on this test, and it's obviously busted, but then there will be RUclips footage of it not hitting mbs, what's the call?"
      Might seem silly, but I know there's been a few top gear car jokes that people thought were serious evaluations of the vehicle (rigging the test to run the car out of charge to get a shot of them pushing it the rest of the way). It's always something the companies need to consider.

Just a thought… the “test” done at 21:15 may have generated enough heat as to change tensile strength of the 6061-T6 (reheating like this can reduce the temperature.) Keep up the good work.

    A blacksmith trick you can find videos of is them repeatedly hammering mild steel until it heats up enough to start the fire for their forge. With a small rod just hammering it and rolling it so it doesn't fully flatten out, it will get hot enough to catch newspaper on fire in under 30 seconds.

    6061-T6: Has a yield strength of around 276 MPa (40,000 psi)
    7075-T6 aluminum alloy is at least 63,000-69,000 psi (434-476 MPa)
    Changing the alloy would give 50% more strength with little increase in cost.

    • @Hydrazine1000
      @Hydrazine1000 2 месяца назад +1

      7075 is about 25%, give or take some, more expensive. But the biggest issue is the tensile property "elongation untill break" (A%), or "stretch before failure". Sure, 7075-T6 has the higher yield strength, but 6061-T6 has a much higher stretch before breaking.
      For this application, where you need to be able to see that you're pushing the limit, 7075-T6 isn't necessarily the best choice. 6061-T6 will provide an earlier warning for critical overload.

    In my understanding redundancy is something that goes as far as you can influence. Two shitty placements connected correctly will be redundant but still unsafe. This plate for me would be redundant if it's double connected to a secure part of a building, but I wouldn't consider it redundant if both connections go to the same crack that I don't trust, I'd look for a backup somewhere else. I say this before watching the video and further, if that matters.

    The extrusion needs to be defined better. I can see the product in a 5 hollow design, which would reduce the machining. Your idea of the extrusion would require all the holes to machined, which would drive the price beyond billet material. I know some engineers consider extrusions as billet, but they are uneducated in this department. Aluminum alloys that are common in extrusions are 6063, 6061, 7105, 7075. 2024 is a real aircraft alloy, but it isn't used in the extrusions. I would never risk my life with a product made from 6063. 6061 is on the border of safe. I was an extrusion die repairman during the 1980's, basically a tool & die machinist with training in H13 tool steel.
