Perhaps you are right Berkeman, maybe there might be an easier way to do this. The design function and need are as follows:
There is an actuating cylinder that repeatedly slides forward and back a basket-like mechanism which catches falling spherical products and then shifts them forward to...
berkeman, aside from induction what other [efficient] methods could you transfer an electric signal to and from a fast moving non-conductive part without delicate flexing wires or wear-prone contact pads?
AvgSupernova, we are definitely on the same page- when I came up with this concept I...
I am attempting to pass current from a static part to a moving part via induction across a 1 mm air gap. Once that works I would like to use the current on the moving part to power an IR LED pointed at a mated IR sensor and then receive the resistance value from the IR sensor and pass the...
