Good, I'm not the only one then thinking it needs to go down that route too then. Thanks for the input!

Morning all, Just wondering what the consensus is on the below. I can't say I've come across this before - I've taken delivery of a quantity of machined and anodised parts, however - have received in excess of the ordered quantity, but a number of these have not been through all the steps of...

Evening all, Just a quick question on general opinion and concensus. Generally, does one specify part tolerances as before or after surface treatments such as anodising? Clearly this is important as a tolerance in the range of a few to tens of microns, could potentially be well out of spec due...

Cotters pins, bolts and welds etc are all not suitable in this application, given it needs to be cycled daily, and in a non accesible location. racookpe1978, I think you may have missed something in the problem - balance is not an issue at all in this application. Simulations seem to suggest...

No, as per original post - the pin is a pin that needs to be retractable to allow for positional adjustment of the lower block.

Brian, thankfully this problem is accounted for - the spring pre-load is enough to keep the spring seated well above expected service accelerations.

The left-right force is only a very rare occurence in large magnitude, the cyclic stresses are very very low. Block wear is accounted for, as the pin and the bores are in fact hardened steel sleeves (the attached image is massively simplified). The blue block is fixed, but for many a reason -...

Okay, I've attacheded an image of not the actual geometry (cannot release) but of a representative scenario. So, the blue block is fixed, the grey pin slides up and down in the bore in the blue block, and is spring loaded downwards on the image. The green block slides relative left and right to...

Morning all, Long time lurker of these forums, first time poster today however. Currently got a little bit of an issue, I am currently reworking an existing design in which a parallel pin drops into a parallel hole within a sliding component, used to lock it in place. I wish to remove play...
