Looks like someone has been doing their research on us...even though it may look like the suction cups are the "suck the air out kind", we are forcing the air out of them by pushing them agaisnt the ground then closing off the air by using a servo to clamp a tube that comes out of the suction cup since you are not allowed to create a vaccum...(by sucking air)
I'm sure we are still not posting any numbers on the force that these suction cups give us but rest assure it is a good amount of force... Last edited by KyleGilbert45 : 03-03-2003 at 11:13. |
