    Fixing steel plates within a steel cylinder

    Hello, This should be a simple problem: As shown on my drawing I want to add plates of stainless steel to create levels within this hollow cylinder structure. The plates are Ø900 mm and distanced each by 120 mm. The total height of the cylinder makes it such that I want to install 4 or 5...

    Quick lift jack for small, low vehicles

    Hi, Similarly to what takes place during pit stops for race cars, I'm exploring possibilities for a lifting jack to raise and lock autonomous robots up in the air for wheel changing. I have a variety of models ranging between 500 mm to 900 mm in width, 800 mm to 1300 mm in length, very short...

    Lateral impact on thin vertical beam

    I have a steel structure designed to hold a certain payload. This structure rests on 4 thin tubes of steel for legs (Ø60 mm total diameter for 2.5 mm thickness). The structure is well-designed for intended operation, i.e bearing the weight of the payload. But I'd like to simulate an accident...

    Compact vertical lift system - alternatives to scissor-lift

    Hi, I'm looking to catalog relevant alternatives to my current scissor lift system. It experiences high stress upon starting its rise, then less and less as it lifts upward. There's the promising idea of screw jack lifting, I want to lift 1/4t to 1t weight range with a stroke of 40-50mm. But...
