 The manual can be compared to a textbook in school. If you choose not to use your textbook, you are asking to fail classes. - dez250 [more] |

Re: Drive Sizing 101
I'm very anxious to see your comp bot then. With our initial design, when the bot was out at the end of the 36 inch arm plus the 18 inch riser, we had 54 inches (call it 4.5 feet). With the 150 pound robot at the end, that's 675 foot-lbs. However, our initial end effector was only 6 inches tall, so the torsion on the top point was 675 ft-lbs / .5 ft = 1350 lbs. Of course, we were trying to package within a 16 inch tall robot, which is why we limited it to 6 inches tall.
Since you're not worried about the tunnel, I suspect you didn't have that constraint regarding packaging. |
