Thanks for letting me know its common as I didn't see any issue with it but struggled to find an example . The high voltage warning is appreciated as well
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone can think of a reason why this is a bad idea as I project that has a board that gets very hot and was thinking having more surface area between the board and case (heatsink) would be good.
I feel like I am missing something obvious but can't think of a reason...
itsmoked That's a great size and you mentioned and I will PM you if I go down this route. It does seem like a solid option and more inexpensive and versatile than a sled rail system
As for the positional accuracy I need to get this requirement better defined, however, my guess would be around...
Thanks for all the input and with positional accuracy being important I am going down the design route of using a laser range finder so I have an accurate position when measurements are taken and can greatly open up the mechanical positional constraints which would be very challenging and costly...
Thanks for all the replies and I wish I had more information but I am just beginning this design and currently have limited requirements. I was thinking of used two tracks but the position of the tracks in relation to one another sounds like a real headache vs. a single track.
Some...
Yes. This device is moving horizontally so this view is from the top down. The trolly will have a small vertical load on it but shouldn't be more than 10#.
The motion will be stopping at discrete distances for a short time and then moving to next distance so being able to control motor is...
Thank you for letting me know about upload (I have attached drawing here). I thought about that as well and with long distance having the motor on the track using a rotating wheel on the track could make sense, however, the distance to the target is critical and although it can be calibrated...
Hello,
I am working on a target system that needs to move lineally and have a few things I would like to ask the community about.
Attached is a simple diagram of the system but it is basically a cart that attaches to a rail using a carriage ( either roller bearing carriage or sleeve...
