Auto coupling with a motor
Auto coupling with a motor
(OP)
I have a metallic roller (dia: 80 mm, thinckness 10 mm) controlled up/down by a pneumatic cylinder.
when reacing its down position it should be coupled with motor axis (which rotates the roller).
what kind of coupling mechanisum I can design/select?
alternative I have to fixed the roller with motor and move both up/down (may not be desireable)
Thanks

RE: Auto coupling with a motor
It probably would be best to move the whole assembly, motor and cylinder as a whole unit, instead of having the motor stationary.
RE: Auto coupling with a motor
should I just mount assmbly with the cylinder or use linear slides?
