In VEX’s newest game Spin Up, intakes are usually mounted on a hinge as to more effectively intake discs. However, this presents the problem of attempting to maintain chain tension as the distance between sprockets changes. 8059Z’s presents a simple solution to this problem, a small elastic-driven arm to consistently allow chain to stay in tension, being easier to tune and more compact than current designs.
