Re: Dumpers?
team 2115: We started with a dumper design and abandond it because even when we were bumper to bumper the balls rolling out of the hopper did not move far enough horizontally to consistantly get into the trailer.
I have seen two dumpers so far, one with a power assist to speed the balls out of the hopper. Neither worked well but it is early. We have found our thrower mechanism has a trajectory consistant enough to put a ball the trailer at a 3-4' range. Mechanically we are fine but as stated befor the challenge is in the programming to aim the thrower
