Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

something like 75lbs as of now... but we aren't done yet:D

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

our robot (team 2428) weighed in at 95 pounds when we put it on the scale yesterday.

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

were done and we are about 98lbs with bumpers

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

The Solidworks model says we're 115.57 lbs...

...with an 8 lbs. ball model

...and a 14 lbs. battery model.

The actual robot isn't quite up to speed with the CAD model, but it's close.

1923 weighs in at 107 right now.

:)

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

we weigh 113.7 without any lightening efforts.

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

Our bot is getting close to completion and weighs in at around 76 lbs. :ahh:

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

We weigh in at 102 right now with a couple of air cylinders and protection covers left to mount. Should be around 112 when finished. Team 1249, The RoboRats

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

we are 95% done and weigh 101 lbs. which is awesome! our first bot ended up weighing 150lbs it sucked lol

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

we're 123:yikes: But we are still phasing out heavier prototype parts:cool:

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

We're at 108 with a complete manipulator (well, the manipulator isn't actually complete, but we piled the remaining parts on the robot for weighing), the compressor, and a complete drive system. We have yet to add the electricals (should go on on Saturday), all the pneumatic fittings (the tanks were piled on for weighing though), and polycarbonate armor.

I think we'll be close to 120, but our robot hasn't had much weight reduction done to it yet. For example, our chain tensioners weigh 1lb a piece, which could be significantly reduced. I also calculated that we could loose a couple of pounds through some light swiss cheesing of the Toughbox's 50T gears. The first chain reduction on the arm could also be cheesed a bit (I'd a bit squeamish of speed-holing the final reduction though... there is a lot of torque going through that sucker). Beyond that, there are always the old tricks: speed-hole the arm, replace bolts with rivets, and so on.

We weigh 99 lbs w/ the bumpers!! We are actually going to add weight for stability.

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

ADD WEIGHT?:ahh: :yikes: what are you stabilizing?

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

How do you weigh your robots? We didn't even know our weight last year until competition, which we found out that it was within our class limit.

Re: What r ur robot weights as of right now
 

We take our bot down to the shipping room that has a digital scale used for weighing crates and packages.
