For #25 chain, you can fit #4 screws through the gaps between the rollers to fix it to something, although I don't know if this is how 233 does it or not. Another method is to drill a hole in the fixed structure that one end of a masterlink fits through. |

233, in 2011 at least, machines a part that appears to 'look' like a #25 chain link at either end and uses that to fix the chain to the stages. Here's a few pictures on their flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/thepinkteam/5787028180/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/thepinkteam/5787033770/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/thepink...n/photostream/ |

Has anyone tried using these to attach chain? Specifically the K-1 style connector.

Maybe fill it up with pressurized air (like a piston out) to make it longer, and have a spring retract it. Maybe that will work for light/medium loads

Am I the only one that likes the lead screw method?
Its beautiful. If you ask, they're more then happy to share some drawings on that arm. I have them saved somewhere. To me, it seems a little more simple and solid then all these chain runs. Cons being I'm not sure how you'd have multiple stages. |

I suppose another disadvantage of the leadscrew would be it's expense and inefficiency. Of course, it does look like a very elegant solution in that situation. |

Stuff got moved around in my google drive, and the previous album link now does not work. I got a PM to repost the link so here it is: https://drive.google.com/folderview?...&usp=sha ring
I will have to try to find a more permanent solution for the future. |
