- I need to build a pill crusher with very hard sell. I dont know how to calculate the Newton Needed so that i will be able to select the correct Pneumatic cylinder
This is my first post in this great community.
English is not my native language, so i am sorry for any mistakes.
I need to build a pill crusher using a pneumatic cylinder with 30mm stroke (effective travel).
i have e metal container with 25mm base diameter where i have to make powder from 6-8 pills.
this pills have very hard shell.
I have an other metal cup that fits as male plug on this container so manually i press this on container to crush the pills.
Even if i add all my wight on it, about 90kg, the pills do not crush so i have to twist the cup at the same time.
i need to make a press , but because this machine should be portable i have to select the smaller , more lightweight pneumatic cylinder.
I do have a manual press, so i will upload the geometrical shape and dimensions, of the press and what force did i apply to the press to achieve the effect.
More specific i will stand on a scale and will find out how much Newton were needed to achieve the result ("Total bodyweight - wight indicated on scale" and then convert kg to Newton).
