Re: CIM Motors to pull up Robot

the 12" radius he quoted is at the winch

or do you intend to have a 12" lever arm that does the lifting?

I also recommend you look at pnumatics - with the regulators at 60psi you can get a cylinder that can produce much more than 130 lbs of force

all you need then is a latch to hold it extended when the power is cut.
