orsd Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 I'm a total noob regarding claws but I'd like something around 7 volts if one exists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogcow Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 In older cranes the coil voltage is the same as the motor voltage, 24v is common I've seen 60v and 48(?)v You need a coil w the right voltage match up so it can lift correctly and doesn't burn out. What kind of crane is it? Is there and existing claw? If so open the lid and take out the coil See if it says anything on the coil Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch Q using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orsd Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 Well actually I'm trying to incorporate a claw into another non vending related little thing I'm making Like i said I'm a total noob and so your almost taking greek to me If you or anyone else is willing to do so a quick crash course on the parts your talking about that would be very appreciated Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogcow Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 it would help if you explain what you need it for the way a claw works is, there is the fingers of the claw are attached to a center post. the center post goes up inside a solonoid (aka claw coil) when the coil energizes it creates a magnetic field that sucks the post up and this closes the fingers of the claw the claw coil voltage adjustment is what adjusts how "grabby" the claw is, weak coil means the claw is less grabby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orsd Posted January 5, 2014 Author Share Posted January 5, 2014 Thank you dogcow, you da man I'm putting this into something I'm making as a pickup mechanism By your description it sounds like I need a claw and a coil, the one that has the lowest voltage and that your willing to part with for cheap Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
