Excellent video. I'm wanting something to JIGGLE-JIGGLE-JIGGLE a garage door, just three quick bursts maybe every 45 seconds... create the jump scare, reset for the next victim... I MEAN, visitor. 🙂 Would it be possible for me to #1 somehow attach the piston to my garage door and #2 get a short enough stroke that it doesn't punch a hole THROUGH the garage door? Is there an easier / cheaper way for me to get the garage door to rattle every so often, short of a physical person out in the garage? I'm not used to doing DIY stuff so I may be missing the obvious or reinventing the wheel.

Good afternoon, thank you for this video, it was really clear and great. -I wanted to ask if speakers could be plugged somehow so we get a sound synchronized with the movement? -You explain that a trigger can be added, like a button or a motion sensor, would there be a possibility to add something to achieve a loop movement? -On the green area that connects the controller with the cylinoid I see there's more than 2 screws, I was wondering if more cylinoids could be connected to the controller evern if they do the movements at the same time? Thank you. Pedro Llaudes
@FrightProps4 жыл бұрын
Hi Pedro, Using a controller with audio would allow you to add sound. Something like a PicoBoo MP3 would work well: www.frightprops.com/picoboo-mp3.html Creating a looping animation can again be done with the controller. Some controllers, like a PicoBoo MP3 allow for what we call "ambient animation," which is animation that repeats indefinitely when ever the unit is powered on and not being triggered. On less advanced controllers you can do what is called "looping the trigger input," which simply means bridging the trigger terminal connections with a piece of wire so that the unit is always being triggered, and therefor always playing its programmed animation, when it is powered on The controller demonstrated in this video has a single solid state output so it is best used to control only one low voltage device. Other more advanced controllers have multiple outputs which can be used to control many solenoids or other electronics. Hope that helps! Scott FrightProps

@kellyanderson995 Жыл бұрын
You would need a pneumatic cylinder with a stopping point in the middle. I've seen such cylinders sold by Bimba. You would need multiple solenoids as well. It's a pretty complicated thing to do, but I do think it's possible if the stop point is at a fixed location. It's kind of hard coded into how they work. See kzbin.info/www/bejne/on_ZgWaKfLB9hbs

@kellyanderson995 Жыл бұрын
Try it, and if it doesn't work, replace it with a larger diameter piston until you get the desired hold down strength. Trying to figure it out ahead of time is pretty difficult as it depends on a rather large number of parameters, like what kind of end will you put on the shaft, what's pushing on the aluminum, what PSI you use (as you guessed) and so forth.

@kellyanderson995 Жыл бұрын
That depends primarily on two things. The pounds per square inch from the regulator, and the diameter of the piston. Bigger diameter pistons press harder, smaller diameter pistons press with less power. If there is a pinching hazard, it's a good idea to use smaller diameter pistons.

@kellyanderson995 Жыл бұрын
This is really difficult to achieve with pneumatics, though it is possible. An electrical actuator may be more along the lines of what you might need to easily accomplish that task, though it will typically be slower. The easiest way to move it just a couple of mm is to get a very short piston, or to somehow block the progress of what you are pushing with an external stopper, like a piece of wood that keeps it from moving. This generally is somewhere around the clevis, which is the thing that screws into the end of the piston.

When buying a cylinder how do you know how much power it has? I need one to be able to lift something up off the floor about an 1" that weights approx. 60lbs. Thanks
@kellyanderson995 Жыл бұрын
ideally, a piston with 1 square inch of area (a little bigger than a 1" diameter piston) that is driven with 60 PSI should be able to do that, but reality varies from the ideal quite often. So the question would be what PSI would you want to run it at, and then do the math to figure the area of the cross section of the cylinder.

what happens if the exhaust mufflers of solenoid valve are completely sealed by plug fittings?
@kellyanderson995 Жыл бұрын
If air can't escape the exhaust, then the piston will not move due to air being trapped in the end of the piston that should have air coming out of it. You can verify this pretty easily with most pistons by trying to move the shaft while the plastic dust prevention covers are in the cylinder.
