  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) Steve, A very interesting set of questions and logic. I don't know the answer, but can add insights that are related. As the available volume/pressure increases, the pistons expand and contract faster. I don't know if there is a linear (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) Here's an important question. What will be the limiting factor in how fast this beast can move? Is it: A) Travel time for the pneumatic cylinders or B) Volume of air available? I'm under the impression it will be limited by the volume of air (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) Yeah, air tanks on a compressor are really only useful when you're using short bursts of more air than the compressor can keep up with (so you need a reservoir to draw from to keep pressure up through each burst) or you're using way less than (...)

  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) I feel better knowing that. (...) Sure. I like games. (...) Hopefully one big compressor composed of three pistons each acting as a double acting pump, driven by RC racer motors. Each RC racer motor is controlled by a battery pack. (...) The (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) I was assuming that the model would use whatever air pressure it was given, unless the state machine was shut off. Given the volume of air that it will take to make the circuit progress, an air tank won't hold enough air to help. Based on this (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) One thing I noticed is that the example pump someone showed earlier has both output lines joined into one T connector, to make a single output line. If airflow is a problem, then wouldn't it be better to keep them separate, with two or more (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion - Compressor
 
(...) I think Kevin has the right idea with racking up a whole bunch of pumps on the same motor. If everything pumps into one air tank anyways, you're going to be restricted to what can go through a single nipple, but there's no reason why you can't (...)
