Hi there,
I need to make the hook in the image to lift automatically for placing in the position of clamping tray. Now this operation is done manual. The polymer hooks are used just to catch the tray not to sustain the weight of it. It is hard to manually rotate the hooks for fixing on the tray when the forks are at a height of 2m. So i think that if I will use a solenoid actuator with 12V will be enough, this solenoid i will catch on the gall chain. I'm not an expert on electrical drivers so please if you have a better idea (I don't think mine is good) or some tips for me I'll be more then happy. I'm thinking also on replacing those hooks with a gripper hand...any idea on what to use?
Thank you,
Adina
