Thanks guys!

I have made mounts for the springs on the feeder, still a little more to do to make it work a little better.

I have also got the rubber strips for the conveyor, its 1.5mm thick, should work out just fine I think, waiting on motors and need to make som more parts for it still.

I have also invested in a 3D printer, nothing fancy, just a cheap chineese machine, works good enogh for me so far.
I have printed the covers for the flywheel and beltdrive, Still need to smooth out and sand the raw finish, but that will be later i think.

So here it is as of now...

Really Neat!

I really like the timing belt and drive sprockets, but do you think that plastic roller chain and standard chain sprockets would hold up or would there be too much stress and vibration in this application?

I'm asking because if I attempt something like this, it would be much easier for me to use roller chain and buy sprockets vs machining timing sprockets. Also, where did you find the timing belt?

Thanks for the pictures!

Jim

How did you join the conveyor belt? Do you have any pictures of that and what exactly is the belt material? Cloth reinforced rubber?

Thanks!

This timing belt is really strong, I would be suprised if it would tear apart.

Both belt and pulleys are from Maedler.de.

I did join the belt with a glue called Liquisole, I got it from my local food store, its a really common glue around here, got a very strong joint from it, and the joint is still flexible.

The belt material in Neoprene rubber 1.5mm thick.

Well, I got a bit more done to the crusher. I got a new more powerful motor for the feeder, works much better now.

Also got most of the conveyor done, a few more pieces to do but Im almost there.

Here are a few pics.
