Hello dear experts. I'm currently thinking about how I can implement a mechanism. A "boom" that is attached to one side so that it can rotate and move is to be pulled up using a cable (winch), locked into place at the top and then suddenly dropped at the push of a button or something…
Does the 1.5g Micro Linear Actuator linear motor actually manage to return to its original position? Are there any integrated feedback systems that help the actuator determine its position precisely? And if so, how accurately do these systems work?
Hello folks, I'm currently studying mechanical engineering and working on a project, but I'd like to address a few points I don't know anything about. Currently, I'm at this stage: I'm supposed to implement a linear drive with a stroke of 300mm, a position resolution of 5 µm, and a maximum travel speed of 10…
Hey! I'm currently working on a 3D printer/CNC machine/laser plotter. I would have liked to use linear systems for the project. Are there any complete systems where a linear system is already connected to a motor, such as a NEMA 17, in a slim design? Examples include the Snapmaker 2.0, Snapmaker Artisan, or the AnkerMake…
To calculate the path speed of a linear drive, the angular speed is multiplied by the radius r: My question now relates more to the correct specification of r. I have a timing belt pulley with a radius of r_Z = 15 cm and a belt with a thickness of d_R = 2 cm. See…
I want to use a linear actuator to raise/lower a chicken coop gate. According to the technical specifications, the linear actuator has a force of 900N. That's equivalent to approximately 91.77 kilograms. The door weighs approximately 20 kilograms. Would that work? Will a linear actuator stay in the retracted/extended position even when the piston is…
