Slotted Link Apparatus | ProDynami 1236
Slotted Link Apparatus ProDynami 1236 demonstrates the concept and working principle of pure simple harmonic motion. As the crank rotates, this Slotted Link Apparatus drives the bar in an oscillating manner, replicating piston and crankshaft motion in an engine. It offers 3 crank radii (25mm, 37.5mm, 50mm) and 3 output strokes (50mm, 75mm, 100mm), with an integrated angle measuring scale and ruler. The disc is mounted on a bearing with a holder joined to the bar for accurate displacement measurement.

Product Overview
The Slotted Link Apparatus ProDynami 1236 features a disc mounted on a bearing with a holder on its surface, joined with a bar through the holder. The disc has a rotational scale so its angle can be checked at any position. A scale is placed with the solid bar, allowing bar displacement to be determined at any disc angle. This Slotted Link Apparatus converts smooth rotary motion into purely harmonic reciprocating motion for laboratory demonstration.

Construction and Design
The Slotted Link Apparatus ProDynami 1236 consists of a disc mounted on a bearing with a holder on its surface, joined with a bar through the holder. The disc has a rotational scale so its angle can be checked at any position. A scale is placed with the solid bar. Bar displacement can be determined at any disc angle. The crank disc is made of anodised aluminium and offers 3 different crank radii: 25mm, 37.5mm, and 50mm. The slider crank is anodised and offers 3 different output strokes: 50mm, 75mm, and 100mm. An integrated angle measuring scale and ruler are included. This Slotted Link Apparatus demonstrates how smooth rotary motion converts into purely harmonic reciprocating motion, replicating the mechanism seen in piston and crankshaft motion in an engine.
