1/8th thick aluminum
Hello all,
Team 1601 is having a small dilemma. We're trying to figure out whether we should switch our arm material to .032 thick 2024-T3 aluminum from .125 thick 6061-T6 aluminum. We are using two window motors on the same shaft geared 1:2 and with the 6061 aluminum our arm is going to weigh rougly 10 lbs. Would the change to the thinner aluminum be worth the loss in strength? |
