80/20 chassis

[alphageek365]

Moe has used 10 series and 45 series 80/20 and Bosch extruded aluminum for the past few years. We found it worked well especially for assembling and testing functions, arms, lift systems, etc. But during competition you'll find the joints come loose. Just make sure your team tightens the bolts every time your bot comes back from the field.

For our major functions we weld Aluminum angle and tube. After this year we decided to weld the entire frame including the chassis to improve the rigidity of our bot.

You'll need about 300 to 350 inches in length for a basic box bot and some functions.

Good luck!
