Shear AIDE_Dimensionnement_Effort on an indexing finger

Hi all

I am asking you today because I have difficulty in dimensioning the diameter of an indexing finger,

Principle:

When the indexing gate is locked, it will drive the door with the help of a cylinder,

I would like to find the mass limit of the door with a Ø 12mm at the tip of the indexing finger,

Concerning the indexing finger, it is made of stainless steel, tempered (no + info from NORELEM)

Thank you in advance for your help and have a good day,

To determine T, it is necessary to see the type of door guide/support. Is the start gradual or violent?

Hardened stainless steel? I didn't know it was possible

Me neither, never seen

or heard of hardened stainless steel

We learn more every day

Hello

For me, the problem is not so much the mass of the door as the speed.

Mass only intervenes on shear as a function of the two parameters of acceleration and deceleration speed. If the acceleration is instantaneous, the shear force is greater.
Once the initial inertia has been overcome, the translational forces are low

What is speed:
- acceleration in m/s and over what length
- deceleration in m/s and over what length
- is the travel speed constant

Kind regards

Hi all

Thank you for your help @gt22 / @stefbeno / @Zozo_mp 

Attached, a video to help you understand,

I think you have to start with a door of 200 kg max + a total distance of 1m

What do you think?

Thank you in advance and have a good day,
