I need to calculate the torque on the 20inch diameter wheels to rotate the 30,000lb 120inch diameter cylinder past the 90deg position where the center of gravity is 12.5inches from the rotational center.
Wheels are linked mechanically and driven by single motor.
Coefficient of friction between...
I have a cylinder rotating about its base.
When I decelerate to a stop is there a point where the ratio between the mass at the outer fibers and the center of gravity make a difference in calculating the reaction force?
The cylinder base is bolted down with four bolts and I am calculating the...
I have two gears that have been keyed incorrectly.
The widths on gears and shafts are correct.
The depth of the keyway in the shafts are correct.
One gear has been broached too tall by 0.02" and tapered 0.006".
The other gear has been broached at an angle and leaves a keyway height of 0.502 on...
I'm designing a wheel that can be moved along a machined tube.
I have chosen an 8deg taper between my split collar and clamp plates but that was just a guess.
Are there any guidelines on split friction clamps that might reduce the number of design iterations I have to build and test...
Hello,
How do you handle working with large numbers of pdf drawing packages?
I have had two job experiences where excel spreadsheets had been typed up to help organize the relationships between all the old drawings.
The other one had the old printed drawing packages bound together and laid...
