I am working on designing a roller which contains a spool of material which can be pulled out by hand (Freespin) and then retracted back in by a motor. The first thought was to use a one way (Sprag) bearing but this will not work as the free spool direction is the same as the driven thus only achieving one or the other. It would be preferable to not use a clutch system but that is where my head is going next. Would love to hear any and all thoughts or ideas around this system. Thanks!
