Re: CIM direct drive
I think you are right Cory,
We used the aluminum one I believe ... the AL..
It was an interesting mechanism. Originally it was geared down...
When we found out it didn't have enough speed we made the change to direct drive.... and forgot that we were using an IGUS bearing on the other end of the shooter drum.... it failed.... Just like they told us it would at intermittent speeds above 2000 rpm
The IGUS engineers are really good at helping you out when you have "alternative" uses for what their parts are designed.
They are invariably correct when they tell you not to use it for that.
that makes sense... its a German company....
good engineers the Germans....
