    Sensor stopping motor in a circuit

    I see. I didn’t know that about the DPDT switches but wanted those exact properties you stated so thank you for your help😁

    Sensor stopping motor in a circuit

    Thank you so much. Now that I think about it if the seat is at one end I would have to deactivate that switch on that end and have to activate the switch on the other end if I want the seat to move from end to end and get it to stop. (Don’t know if you get the full picture) But it’s okay I’ll...

    Sensor stopping motor in a circuit

    Hi, I'm doing a project where a seat moves along a thread that rotates via a motor. I'm trying to think up a way where I can control the motor without programming or Arduino. My idea at the moment is to have a Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) switch, that allows the motor to move clockwise and...

    Calculating the Torque and Angular Velocity of a rotating thread

    Drawoh, Sorry for my rudeness,I was merely wanting an individual on the forum to confirm the method of calculating the torque in this situation as I’ve never really approached something like this before. Thank you for your reply. Anthony.

    Calculating the Torque and Angular Velocity of a rotating thread

    Hi, Onatirec, the pitch of the thread is 1.25mm, sorry for not providing it at the start of the post. Drawoh, the coefficient of friction is 0.14. Unfortunately, I don't have anything to show you, sorry for the inconvenience. Would I be wrong in saying that you could feed the coefficient of...

    Calculating the Torque and Angular Velocity of a rotating thread

    Hi, I'm doing a project where we are creating a seat that's supposed to move along a metal thread when it rotates. I've been tasked with all the calculations and I'm finding it really difficult. I have to calculate the torque required to rotate the thread as well as the angular velocity needed...
