Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] need help with torqe calculations

      Dave,
      Can you sketch this and show exactly what you are trying to calculate.
Send it direct to my email and then I will post the 
      answer on the forum.
      Thanks,

Subject: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] need help with torqe calculations

 
I need help with the math to calculate force/torque or what the correct term
would be.

imagine a 12 inch bar sticking out from the table. theoretically, the bar would
not bend, only the connection/mount.

#1) the mount were close to the bar, such as a hammer claw is to a nail.

#2) the bar in on a bracket, the bracket is about 6 inches long (very heavy and
theoretical will not bend) on the table. the bar would be the same length, but
removed from the pivot point by about 4 or 6 inches. The bracket could end at
the bar, or continue past by 4-6 inches.

My math is horrible for these formulas.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

If you want numbers, I am figuring about 100 to 250 pounds of pressure on the
bar. the bar is 12 inches off the table. pressure is linear, or parallel to the
table.

Thanks !
Dave
