Waveguide port - flange size comparison table
The relationship between waveguide port dimensions, flange [https://www.leader-mw.com/rf-integrated-load-dc-18ghz-with-tab-mount-20w-power-product/] sizes, and frequency bands is standardized to ensure mechanical compatibility and optimal RF performance. Below is a simplified comparison table and key principles for common rectangular waveguides and their associated flanges.Key Concepts
1. Waveguide Designation: Waveguides are labeled with "WR" (Waveguide Rectangular) followed by a number (e.g., WR-90). The number approximates the inner broad-wall dimension in hundredths of an inch (e.g., WR-90 almost equal to 0.90" inner width).- Example: WR-90 = 0.9" (22.86 mm) inner width.
2. Flange Types: Flanges standardize the connection between waveguides. Common types include: - UG/UPC (MIL-STD): Standardized military flange (e.g., UG-387/UPC). - CPR (Commercial): European standards (e.g., CPR-137). - Choke Flanges: For low-leakage, high-power applications. - Cover Flanges: Simpler, used for vacuum sealing.
3. Frequency Bands: Each waveguide supports a specific frequency range based on its dimensions.
Waveguide-to-Flange Comparison Table Waveguide Frequency Range Flange Type Flange Dimensions (Typical) Applications WR-90 8.2-12.4 GHz (X-band) UG-387/UPC (MIL) Bolt Circle: 1.872" (47.5 mm) Radar, satellite comms. WR-112 7.05-10 GHz (C-band) UG-595/UPC Bolt Circle: 2.400" (61.0 mm) Radar, telecom WR-62 12.4-18 GHz (Ku-band) UG-385/UPC Bolt Circle: 1.250" (31.75 mm) Satellite, military systems WR-42 18-26.5 GHz (K-band) UG-383/UPC Bolt Circle: 0.800" (20.3 mm) High-frequency radar WR-28 26.5-40 GHz (Ka-band) UG-599/UPC Bolt Circle: 0.600" (15.2 mm) 5G, automotive radar WR-15 50-75 GHz (V-band) UG-387Mini/UPC Bolt Circle: 0.400" (10.2 mm) mmWave, research
Flange Dimensions (Typical) 1. Bolt Circle Diameter (BCD): Diameter of the circle formed by the centers of the mounting bolts. 2. Hole Spacing: Distance between bolt holes (e.g., 4-hole or 8-hole patterns). 3. Waveguide Aperture: Matches the waveguide's inner dimensions.
Key Relationships
1. Waveguide Size left and right Flange Size:- Larger waveguides (lower frequencies) use larger flanges (e.g., WR-112 flange > WR-90 flange).- Smaller waveguides (higher frequencies) use compact flanges (e.g., WR-28, WR-15).
2. Flange Compatibility:- Flanges must match mechanically (hole alignment, BCD) and electrically (impedance continuity).- Mixing flange types (e.g., UG-387 with CPR-137) requires adapters.
3. Standards by Region:- MIL-STD (UG/UPC): Common in U.S. defense systems.- IEC/CPR: Common in European commercial systems.
Example Flange Standards Flange Type Waveguide Compatibility Key Features UG-387/UPC WR-90, WR-62, WR-42 4-hole, MIL-STD-392, widely used. UG-599/UPC WR-28, WR-15 Compact, for mmWave systems. CPR-137 WR-112, WR-90 European standard, 8-hole pattern. Choke Flange All Grooved design for reduced leakage.
Notes- Always verify mechanical drawings from manufacturers for exact dimensions. - Mismatched flanges cause impedance discontinuities, leading to VSWR degradation. - For vacuum systems, use O-ring sealed cover flanges.

How Connection Types Impact A Sintered Filter's Performance
When designing a filtration system [https://www.filsail.com/sintered-filter/], much attention is rightly given to the sintered filter itself-its micron rating, material, and shape. However, the connection interface, the critical link between the filter and the system, is often an afterthought. The type of connection used can significantly influence the performance, reliability, and service life of your custom sintered filter.

Tool Holders Classified by Spindle Taper Hole
The Tool Holder [https://www.mpmmachines.com/tool-holder/] is the connector between the machine tool and the cutting tool. It's a crucial component affecting concentricity and dynamic balance, and should not be treated as an ordinary part. Concentricity determines the uniformity of cutting depth across the cutting edges during a single rotation of the tool; dynamic imbalance during spindle rotation will cause periodic vibrations.
Based on the taper of the machining center spindle tool mounting…
