18. Can the cable subassembly overcome frictional forces without breaking? Proposed materials : Bicycle brake cable (steel) Rubberized Nylon cable Here, we will analyze the 5 mm cable with the lowest tensile strength to ensure a sufficiently high factor of safety for the stationary board. Weight considerations are largely ignored for this analysis as they not pertinent to the direction of motion. A distributed load of 7 lbf is applied against the direction of motion of the cable due to the board friction present. Thus the motor force must overcome the friction force. Since there are 2 pulleys (top and bottom) aiding the path of motion of the eraser, the stress on the cables is halved indicating that the cable tension in summation must overcome eraser assembly friction, pulley/bearing friction, and applied motor stress. With the chosen motor (maximum torque of 34 N-m = 25.077 ft-lb.) at a distance of 2 ft, the cable has a F of S of at least 20 which is ample to ensure that the cable, even with the smallest tensile strength, will not stretch or deform and will definitely not snap. This means that cost can largely dictate the cable material that is chosen.
