    Trying to find the torque required to turn the crankshaft in my mechanism

    A 4 bar mechanism guides the object up and down, I can add more weight to the end of the counterweights of the crankshaft. Cool, I did some sleuthing on my own and am also getting a ~similar force, solving I get 525 in-lb but yea, forgot about the acceleration in terms of direction, opps.

    Trying to find the torque required to turn the crankshaft in my mechanism

    Unfortunately I cannot, I need it to cycle at least 200 RPM. I can choose a different gearbox/motor setup if I know the torque or the calculation required to get the torque with this setup.

    I need it to move 7 inches vertically. Crankshaft, here is a photo of what I am working on.

    Trying to find the torque required to turn the crankshaft in my mechanism

    Hello!, First post and I am excited. I am an artist and want to see if the motor I have selected for this mechanism will work for a project I am working on. I am trying to see if the gearbox/motor I have sourced for this mechanism is powerful enough to drive it. The weight of the object I...
