Re: 1070's 2007 Robot Lifting
Interesting lifting mechanism. . . Can it lift fast and why it lift so high? Should it be more than 12 inches? I am just curious.

Lol, I'm not sure I've seen other lift mechanisms that are motor powered. I know two are pneumatically powered and most are ramps. It goes up 16" in about 5-8 seconds. Watching it lift is a thrill:

This was at the Elimination Matches at SoCal. We're lifting 599 and 968 in the last few seconds. Just seeing it rise is amazing.

Wow, That is a beautiful robot! Great job


Lifting schoolgirls on either side? Do you mean taking it around to elementary schools?

Re: 1070's 2007 Robot Lifting
It's cool that you decided to go with 16". I've seen a lot of teams who only plan for around 13 inches, but their platforms sag and they only get the 4 inch bonus =P

Re: 1070's 2007 Robot Lifting
It was designed to go up to 16" for two key reasons. 1) Any deflection of the platforms would be taken up by the extra height. 2) Any robot that couldn't get on the platform fully had a much better chance of getting to full height.
