The BSP hole at the back is for gas input from a large tank. designed so the tank isn’t inline with the gun.

I’m in another country, C6 is more common here than KFC! I don’t have a mill..

@Marc, yea section A may render the valve safe only for CO2 eh. Other sections look fine for HPA?

What other material can I use besides stainless guys?

So 1mm dia o-ring means a groove 0.8mm deep. I’d give 1.2mm for the width.

Took very small cuts and slow speed to do the machining.

Stainless 316 insanely hard to machine.. (for me at this stage).

what materials normally used? and how’s rust prevented?

hey, aren’t we still getting very positive air expansion ?? as in the high pressure gas is still much higher than the friction after say 2 meters?

its a .25 cal

the valve volume is around 0.5 cu inches BUT is a bullpuped one that is connected (8mm dia port x 2) to a separate discharge tube with around 2Cu inches of volume

the gas is co2

ACTUALLY it was originally designed with sheet metal (2mm steel) (using autocad mechanical) but then i don’t know people who do sheet metal only machining, so i had to do solid block (it shouldn’t be hard to…Read more

Condor’s straight flow (there is ONE other valve that is even more powerful) is better apparently. get a friend (a mate at uni does aerospace did it for me) to check…Read more

The funny thing is, i’d never sacrifice acuracy and power for auto, yet this auto thats starting to emerge doesn’t sacrifice anything. well the point is, i’d only make it…Read more

Regarding the solenoid forces, be assured there will be enought force. 😛

the solenoid i chose for those designs are 26mm max stroke. and i’m using 20mm of it’s stroke (5mm nominal with 100 Newtons of force at 15% B field gap). starting with a lower force of about 10N.

man i wonder why solenoids are used…Read more

@bart, thanks for your comments! as for the bullet type, i was only considering for ball shots.
for the bolt needing to be detained. I might have not made it clear, but the bolt has set screws clamping it to the solenoid pin. the solenoid pin it self is detained by the solenoid body, which has additional shock absorbing assembly inside

the problem i had with the design is that the hammer is actually centred around the stem to be struck (hole in middle) and a solenoid cannot have a hole in its middle, and will have to be offest?

p.s. with the oring sealing, i’ve thought about the quick wearing…Read more

its called electromechanicsonline.com
