Well the cylinder has a stroke length of ~8 inches (it's a little less) it is 17 inches from the pivot point,
the other arm is 6 inches from the pivot.
When the cylinder is fully extended, the crushing plate will move down about 3 inches which is greater than the width of most cans. (At least greater than all of the cans I have.)
It flattened cans sideways because I wanted to be able to put them through a shredder. It was very close to accomplishing that, if the base plate didn't bend to shit, I'm sure it would have worked.
Yes! But the crushinator is a big girl, mine couldn't hold a candle to that, so she squishes instead of crushes!
I literally just got my Saturn 4 ultra two weeks ago, it prints PERFECTLY right out of the box. I literally did nothing to set it up. I'm so used to my CR10 needing to be babysat it was shocking how well the prints come out.
I have heard of them losing their Z position and ramming the build plate into the reservoir repeatedly, but that the only problem I have really heard of them having.
I did! And you have no idea, those damn horses can be scary.
We had one a while back (total asshole of a horse) that kept escaping and walking on the streets, I had to walk it back one day, it decided very abruptly that is was terrified of the gate. It started rearing up and shit.
I panicked because we were right in the gateway and I was very close to it. I just knew I had to get it back in so the first thing I thought to do was punch it in the face.. it worked.
We sold him very shortly after that.
I'm a freight conductor and yard shifts have similar times.
For example, tomorrow my shift is 06:32-14:32. They never explain why, you just show up when you're told.
Up or down? I'm still learning and trying to figure out the feed.
Also, how did you know it's the feed? What should I be looking for?
