Thanks for the link, those products look very suitable.
The tilting function is all mechanical by cable and is locked in place by friction on the input end. Thanks
Ah ok, yeah thinking the simpler the design the better for underwater usage. The design is basically a sheet metal, mechanical tilting arm for an underwater camera. Thanks
The suggestions are much appreciated. So say I was to go with a bearing for this design - does anyone know what type of bearing may work for this application and have any idea on how to use one in the design? Thanks
Thanks for the great suggestions.
Here's some more info on the design:
- The two metal sheets will need to be accurately held together during rotation without any free play in other degrees of freedom.
- They'll need to rotate slowly in a 90 degree range of motion and there'll be a light...
Hi,
I have two sheet metal parts that need to freely rotate alongside each other around a bolt that holds them together.
I'm after some advice on how to achieve this function by adding a ball bearing or a shoulder washer type setup. The load would be very light around 1.5kg.
In particular...
