Hi guys, good afternoon.
I'm on the lookout for a winch with a 1,500-2,000 lbs capacity, preferably AC-powered, equipped with a remote pendant controller, and boasting variable speed drive and a safety brake feature. My budget falls between $2,000 to $5,000, so I'm keen on exploring...
Do you guys have any design ideas for this setup?
Wheels vertical and horizontal that will run on the track, we're gonna use flat wheels with eccentric bushings on the horizontal wheels for adjustability. I'm having a difficult time dealing with how to fasten the horizontal wheels, any...
I think I'm going to go with the setup mentioned previously of v-wheels on inverted angle on one side of the load, and flat wheels on flat rail on the opposite side.
Do you guys know where I can procure flat wheels with concentric and eccentric bushings, that I can adjust just to make it a tight...
Hi guys,
I want to move a fixture that's 100 pounds forward and back (back and forth) on 1/2'' angle rails.
Do you know of any flange wheels or have suggestions on what wheels to use for my application?
Please see attached sketch of my application, black is a bracket that I plan to mount my...
I've twisted the idea and was thinking about having a jib-crane low rise mechanism which moves on a v-track guide using wheels, my question is, will the beam be able to support a 70 lbf pull? (That's what the average pull force measurement of the parts will be).
Also, what type of mechanism on...
What do you guys think of this cart design?
Then having some kind of hook mechanism that can be attached to the working fixture, what type of mechanism you guys think I could use to start sliding the beams on top of the stack?
Any recommendations input on the design would be greatly...
The idea is to slide through conveyor rollers one beam one at a time, two are needed for a build.
If I have a pneumatic cylinder to push one beam at a time, starting from the top, what kind of mechanism can I use to lower the cylinder between rows?
Hi fellow engineers,
We're looking for the operators to not lift more than 35 pounds at any given time in our production factory, I'm designing a a mechanism/method where I can place this bundle of I-Beams on a set of conveyor rollers or gravity rollers, then having a mechanism (pneumatic...
Hi, I'm working on a project where there’s strict weight limit of max 35 pounds for manual handling of I-beams & C-beams, considering the varied weights (~75 pounds) and lengths (16' to 29') of these rails, we would like the operator to pick up these rails with a lifter machine or/and...
I've been having a tough time distinguishing between different metal materials, particularly aluminum and various types of steel like stainless, galvanized, and galvanneal. I'm hoping to get some guidance on how to visually and by properties differentiate these materials.
I often come across...
Hey guys, any ideas on how to create a guide for cutting/shearing a truck roof coil.
Please see images below for ideas.
The idea is to have a handle extension and be able to guide the Nibbler/Shear through a channel/guide for a precision cut al along the width of the roof.
