ball valve mallet
When the page finishes loading move your mouse across the image to control the flipbook.
description
This flipbook shows a 3/4" ball valve being opened at 1000 frames per second. A rubber mallet is being used to open the valve. The mallet is being swung at a typical speed. The valve opens completely in 12 ms using this method which is a pretty decent time.
reference objects
I'll try to remember to get some measurements.
