Believe it or not Bjorn...It's the mechanics that are faulty on my electronic Sinar shutter, but that's a long story
Cheers Dave
the machanics look simple enough, its only tow metal discs for the shutter blades, any place with a CNC or laser cutter should be able to make them no problem.
mechanically, it's not a very complex part.
The shutter blades are a simple design...I'm not sure they are metal or a plastic composite. They do however have a spacer pad attached at both ends of the blades.
The blades are catapulted using a device like a sprung loaded hammer so any friction atall between blades or the casing will prevent the blade from reaching it's other 'home' position.
I probably haven't described it very well but if I could get the blades to travel without any friction, the shutter would work fine.
Cheers Dave
