The skating force, or the antiskating force, is small compared with the vertical force. The same elastomeric stylus suspension resists both directions of force. VTF will affect the stylus before skating has an effect (if ever).
AntiSkate-crooked Cantilever correlation?
This has been something that has been on my mind for some time now. I note how many forumites here typically now use little, to no anti-skate.
And, I've often wondered is anti-skate, or a lack of, is a possible cause to cantilevers eventually becoming cockeyed over time?
Common sense tells me, if a Stylus is "fighting" to stay in the groove, while the Arm wishes to pull one way, or another, that this might not be good for Cantilever "health"?
I would like hearing others thoughts of this topic? Thanks, Mark
