Extruder Drive Gear Test Rig
Description
I Designed This Testing Fixture To Compare The "Bite" Between Several Different Extruder Gears. An Axle Made Out Of A Metal Clevis Pin Holds The Drive Gear, Pivots At One End, And Allows You To Hang A Weight On A String From The Other. Then I Used A Pull Scale (For Weighing Luggage, Fish, Etc) And Tested How Much Each Gear Could Hold Before Slipping. Full Test Details And Results Are In My Instructable.
