Thanks for your tips JHG! I'll make sure to design it for enough spring action.
Brian, yes the inner race will be clamped between those two pieces. The motor consists of two parts, the whole top part (contained within the red piece and attached to the blue part) spins, the bottom part just...
I hadn't really expected that to be so hard, but it makes sense now that you mention it.
However, in this particular case, wouldn't the flexibility of the 3D printed material in between the point where the motor is screwed down and the contact point with the bearings cause enough flexing to...
Could you post pictures of the ic lettering?
Your second image looks as if it might just be a simple USB to serial converter.
In general, octoparts is a nice website when trying to find sellers for specific parts.
Hi JGH and Brian,
Thank you for your reactions.
I already own the motors, and would thus like to use the ones I have.
The main reason for using these motors is that they have a very accurate internally running feedback algorithm, so directly mounting them to the moving parts eliminates the...
Hi All,
I'm in the process of designing my own 3D lidar scanner (mostly for fun), but since I'm not a mechanical engineer I would love to get your input on bearing requirements.
The lidar scanner platform basically consists of two motors each being able to turn the lidar in 1 axis. The platform...
