MP-05 & MP-1 @ Dtek
Can anyone tell me anything about the new MP-05 cpu and MP-1 gpu blocks from Dtek?
They look to be really decent ...I'm considering getting some pending reviews and performance comparisons. thanks csimon Last edited by csimon; 09-19-2005 at 07:41 PM. |

Thanks for that info cathar ...how can I get prices on the G5, G6 and/or G7 in the states or is that a bit premature? And while I have your attention ...LOL ...how will the PA120's perform in comparison to the PA160?
Looks to me that the MP-05 is in the 37 jet bore range but I could be mistaken cause the pic gets blurred when I enlarge it. Oh yeah I rescended the comment about you having something to do with it once I took a closer look at the desgin. It looks similar to your designs somewhat I suppose.

I just realized that those must be aquax blocks.

Happy to answer your above questions, but not in order to hijack this thread.

I've read the threads and I must say that you put a lot of effort into your work ...much more that I can imagine right now especially with the testing.
So what would I have to do to get a design from the drawing board to be tested? Is it something I should consider seeking a patent for first or is it not worth the trouble? I think you both have excellent theories and talents on this subject and I like the practical way of thinking. I have a questions for each of you concerning the base plate. Cathar: After looking at the G7 piccies do I understand correctly that your base is simply flat or am I missing something? If so why? Jaydee: What's the status on the pyramidal base ...did you put it aside for later or is it completely a wash as being too impractical? Also, does the pyramid array work concaved as well as convexed? Should I start another thread in the block part of the forum since I seem to have hijacked my own? Sorry for all of the questions guys but I'd like to pursue my design somehow. Any advice and I'll be greateful. Thanks csimon |

Attached is a pic of my last prototype I made in 2002. I have been discussing the concept with a manufacture that is also interested in the concept and he will probably beat me to a finished product.
It isn't impractical at all. In fact if the tooling I have in mind can be made it could be one of the best ways to go as far as production/performance/cost ratio. I have not done any real work on the design since 2002 so not much to discuss right now. |

Also ...is delrin a plastic at all or is it more of an alloy? The little I've seen on it isn't very clear. I was thinking in lines of a 3d printer for precision shapes ...the resolution has come way up in the past year. |

Delrin is a plastic. Comes in black and white mainly. I have seen grey on e-bay. |

But stampig shapes was just something too easy to pass up ...I'll have to try or at least sketch it to give a better idea of how I think it could work. Have you done any work with a 3d printer? I have a friend who would love to sell me one and he does owe me a prototype of anything I wish ...within reason of course. I wonder if cathar has considered it for the G-8 nozzle? |

Cold forging might have some use. Problem with that and stamping is the base will have to be lapped significantly.
The mills Cathars machinist uses can do anything a 3D printer can do and more. |

If I were to produce a jet type nozzle what diameter pattern you like to see? I read were cathar mentioned dime size but I'm not even sure that Aussie dimes are equal in diameter to US dimes. I measured a US dime at roughly 3/4". How many holes and what material thickness? |

Jet/nozzle? Depends on the design of the block really. There are a couple ways of going about it. Cathars designs, IMO anyway, seem to be a complete design. In other words every part of the block (top, jet array, base) is designed specifically for the block. The other way to go about it is like Bruce with the MP-05. Make a base and then create the jet arrays and nozzles to work with the block. |
