Hello -
I need some support about the best practice to identify the location on a drawing to state where a laser etching should occur.
I haven't specified anything like this before and we do not have an internal standard - looks like I am the first!
I am thinking that I would need to outline...
Hi Folks, I have designed a small DC motor driven actuator that simply arcs a lever back and forth over a 10 mm arc. The system consists of a 1 start worm, and a 28 tooth helical gear. This lever has physical stops at both ends of travel. On occasion when the lever hits one of the stops, I...
This may seem like a concerning question, but I am going to ask it anyways.
Is there such a gear as a spur gear simply cut on an angle?
We are researching the use of helical gear application, but there is some debate about how to model a gear, properly.
I have drafted a sketch (involute) in...
Hello,
I have been struggling to determine the required torque of a motor in a worm gear drive. I have calculated the tangential force that the worm gear applies to the worm, but cannot determine the required torque the motor will require to turn the worm. All searching on the web has...
