This six-digit reversible mechanical counter was designed by the Luxxo CAD AI from an engineering-challenge request. It has 42 parts, measures 167 × 101 × 83 mm and weighs 1.6 kg, in steel S235. Below you can read the request, the main specifications and the problems the AI flagged, and download the STEP, STL, DXF and A3 drawing for free.
The request
“Design a six-digit mechanical decimal counter with reversible counting and a common reset control.”
First line of the brief.
Specifications
- Range
- 6 digits, 0–999999
- Carry
- 10 : 1 per stage
- Input
- 1 crank turn = 1 count
- Detents
- Spring-ball
- Slip clutch
- ≈ 0.5 Nm
Flagged by the AI
- A full 999999 to 000000 carry needs about six times the single-stage torque, so the clutch setting must exceed that.
