Re: Designing a "belt + roller" conveyor for balls

Quote:
What about this flat stuff Miss Daisy used?
It's just flat polycord. McMaster carries both kinds in several different sizes, simply go to belts --> flat/round belts --> set material to urethane.

Miss Daisy's machine has small black wraps of (electrical tape??) on the roller. Does this work by emulating a Crowned Pulley?
Yes. 469 did the same in 2013. We put an o-ring under the tape to get more of a crown.
