This is the pivot for an improved lid shutter on my (Joeveo) coffee mugs. Bosses are to be staked to retain the wave spring washer and the shutter. I'll be looking for a shop to make these too--get in touch if you'd like to quote.

Is the heat-regulating material potassium carbonate?
Esteemed RCM'ers: I'm designing a part that'll be produced on a CNC lathe and am looking for "design for manufacturing" help from anyone who has more knowledge of CNC lathes than I (that's about everyone, since I have never worked with a CNC lathe).
Here's the design as it stands:
https://i.imgur.com/vf1ql78.jpg
I'm thinking:
1) pick up knurling tool, knurl
2) RH tool, shape crown, then bevel for next knurl
3) LH tool, finish head enough to cut face groove
4) some tool, cut face groove
5) LH tool, finish profile of part
6) thread tool, thread
7) parting tool, part off
That seems like a lot of tool changes.
- Any ideas on simplifying this? design tweaks to make it easier?
- Are the 0.010" fillets I have drawn reasonable (not too small)?
- suggestions for SS material to specify that will be easy to machine and have a nice finish?
TIA for any thoughts, dean

All that's missing are english threads, or something adorable like M7x0.8, exotic alloys, ceramic bearings or seals or vent channels, like for high vacuum equipment. Don't forget to leave room for the thermocouple.

Our customers, many of them anyway, would like to be able to put their
mug in a backpack or purse without fear of coffee leaks. I'd like to accommodate them with a leak-proof, easy-to-open/close/clean lid.

Maybe I'll invent something called a "thermos" with vacuum insulation and
a leak proof lid, one that even doubles as a cup.

If the clearances are right, you'll be able to put the shutter in the silverware basket of your dishwasher and it will get thoroughly cleaned.
There are lots of vacuum-insulated travel mugs on the market (as Jim notes), but they all aim to keep your coffee as hot as possible. Mine keeps your coffee at a comfortable drinking temperature. You can drink it right away without burning your mouth,and it stays hot for hours.

As a hands-on experimenter and prototyper I'd like to see a time vs temperature graph, if you have one. If not I can tell you how to log temperature, voltage and current data for $35 per optically isolated
channel.
