Hi J, I have been reading and studying what you have done to date, it is hard for me to understand the engineering, whilst I have a natural feel with building - I do wish I had your skills, so far it is all looking really good. I was at the stage of just throwing a 7 or 8 kilowatt 8 pole motor...

Hi J, I appreciate your help, please do not put this before anything important. Time will see this work out. again thanks Mike

Hi J, The project has come from the need to simplify a process, if this prototype works then we have accomplished a great feat. I have the time I am able to draw and source information, though I lack the skills which you have to add the correct and much needed engineering. As for the no reply...

sorry to here that you have pulled the pin on this, your help was the only source I had to see this project move forward, if you ever change your mind I would be very appreciative of the assistance, as I have no skills in this field.

HI jinsol, I will apologise for not responding earlier though your post did not reach me. Not sure why it has not hit my outlook -email. what I have seen from the tables you have created is very correct. thanks for your help and patience, best regards Mike, PS; I was wondering what was...

Hi j, pinch roll speed is ok at 100 rpm. regards Mike

Hi J, thanks for showing some interest in this contraption. A. correct B. correct C. yes correct D. again correct All is observed correctly j. I will have to check my notes, I think I have stated something wrong on the sketch - that you have made me aware of, the speed of the pinch rollers...

good day j.many thanks, its is very complex and so different to the norm, I am thinking, hoping to use double sided timing belts to tie the 3 drives together, any thougts from your end. regards Michael

Hi j, trying upload the filehttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=9841a817-2db6-4025-92e7-a657c6265f04&file=BEAKEY_DRIVE_SYSTEM.jpg

Hi jinsol, I would like to thank you for the help - I would be lost without it. Using a hand held scale it took about 5kg to pull it. I will take the time to write up a spec and re-post the drawing, might make thing easier having all info. regards and thanks Michael

well there you go - went thru and tried 4 only firefox has worked

Hi j, for some reason I cannot get this to open my browser - must need to change something, still trying

Hi jlnsol, I am struggling to find a way to post the sketch, the area below for an attachement will not work for me. Michael

Hi, I was hoping someone could help me calculate the size of a drive to run the following, 1. a pinch roller pulling a wire total force 50n, roller radius is 28.559, 100 rpm 2. a lobe (cam roller bearing) swung off a shaft pushing a piston arrangement down, needing 100kg of force perpendicular...
