Re: How to find the moment of an arm

If it's in a scissor lift configuration, is there a load at the end of the Pipe? If so, that needs to be figured in as well by multipling the load times the distance from the fulcrum. Watch your units and make sure to gear down your motor so that it works at half it's stall torque to maximize its efficiency (except for the FP, Drill, and CIM - check Joe Johnson's / Paul Copioli's motor presentations in the White Papers section).
