Re: Replacement for Pneumatics and Linear Actuators

Pretty cool. I don't think it can beat a balll or lead screw in terms of weight and efficiency, however, ball screws are extremely expensive. This saves some weight and looks like it is very cheap and easy to build.
I am worried about the strength of the cabling. What is the tensile strength of the cable?
