I have been looking at this Japanese company that makes automatic door closers with spring assist. here is a link to their catalog.
I have seen many designs come out of Japan that require great precision and "work" as intended but only if installed perfectly. Also, there is something quirky...
I there a way to create an animation where an end face cam rotates about an axis and a follower rises and falls depending on the cam shape(obviously)?
Thanks for any input.

I have FEMAP 10.3
Is there a way to model a pendulum whose pivot pin is in a high viscosity fluid? I would like to vary the pin and holes' clearance with the high viscosity between the two.
Thanks for any guidance

I have a 12l14 ground stock shaft (soft) engaged in an aluminum reamed housing(2") depth 3/8" nominal diameter. It is a reamed hole finish with no coatings.
The aluminum is 6063-T6. the shaft/ hole combination has .0005-.001 clearance and will rotate intermittently in a randomly used test...
Is anyone using 15-5 stainless as a spring?
Since 17-7 is tough to get, I was wondering if anyone has had success & if they have a hardening and tempering process
to get the material to RC44-51. The spring is low deflection
(.015") max and is flat.
Thanks for any help.
