Electronics, Motor, and Transmission Weight Estimator

[imdunne8]

I have created a spreadsheet that should help with the calculation of the weight of some standard components. You can download the weight estimator from here. (http://robotcasserole.org/simplemachinesforum/index.php?topic=65.0) If anyone has anything they would like me to add, please let me know.

Awesome, thanks a lot! I was looking for a way to weigh my electronics without doing much work :p.

Edit: you ought to throw in compressor weight too.

On the terminal blocks, is that weight for the fully assembled DIN rail with 4 red and 4 black blocks?

Add the compressor and air cylinders

Thanks for the feedback so far.

Unfortunately, I do not have my scale with me tonight, but I will try to get everything else added by around mid-day tomorrow.

As for the din bar, it is fully assembled - 4 red, 4 black, 3 gray, mounting bar uncut.

Thanks! This is a very handy tool.

I have updated the calculator and added most of the main pneumatic components into it. If anyone else has recommendations of additional components to add in, let me know.
