Hi it's me
I decided to make a robot diary because my robot has started to take place like the base of the frame is done :proud: and the rest of the frame has started
I will try to put pics up and update this!!!!!!!
Theo
i have a pic ready !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and it is not that good and is not milled ali :( lol
and i cant put it on this website =( so...
i mite make a robot team webpage but what should be my team name!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Easier option for images. Get a photobucket, or use imageshack.us then copy and paste the url which starts with [img] here
got the picture problemo fixed and so:( sorry for it being small)
as i said on my pneumatic topic
i have a cylinder on its way, brougt it of ebay.
its 16 bore and 54 stroke double acting brand new (so they say!)
will get abit done on the frame this half term so more pics on your way
I've already said in the pneumatics thread it's 40mm stroke.
The seller isn't consistent in the strokes length...
NEW SMC PNEUMATIC CYLINDER
CDQSB16-40DC
MAX 1 Mpa (145 psi)
4 MM ID FEED HOLES
16 MM BORE
50 MM STROKE
72 X 29 X 29 MM
AND
PNEUMATIC CYL-SMC-CDQSB16-40DC
BORE16-STROKE 54MM-NEW wrong!
The 40 in the part number is the stroke length.
thats still ok stroke for my robot!
If your happy that's fine :)
yes i am happy should be here any time soooooooooon!!!!!!!!!!
if u want arc welding rods go to 'tool station'
me and my dad got 300 steel weldingrods for a £5-er :proud: :proud: :proud:
and here is a bit of an inprovement on the frame!(and the rods!)
just got home and the cylinder has come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
its inline with my ipod touch and its 5 inches long when its fired and the stroke is 40mm, and is 3 cm wide and the bore is 16mm
i am running it at 144 psi/10 bars and working pressure max is 145psi and max pressure is 160 psi
10 bars is 144 psi :shock: might run at 8 bar afterall. i'll be using very wide tubing (12mm) so should get alot of flow.

yeh i was getting confused with all of these bars i though 10 bar was lower you see so i was pleasantly supprised when i saw that and realised it was more :D my mind works in psi and mm's you see.
well mine works with psi and inches!
(thats why i put psi and bars so peeps like u and me understand :roll: )
UPDATE
the reg is going to be brought soon and then just the valve
any ideas? ( on where to get a valve or ebay links)
brougt the reg from trev today
and should be at my house by wednesday
if you need a regulater with max outlet of 26 bars ( i think )
there is only a few left becos he isnt making any more

Hey
the robot is going on well! :proud: but I am thinking of building (buying a 'kit') of a heavyweight, not right now but after my feather and maybe a 2nd feather weight
(and when I get the money :uhoh: ) so what do people think!
Post some more pictures of your build if its coming on well.
I will try but my computer will NOT work :angry:
anyway I am trying to make a motor mount,I am using dill motor so any ideas?
you could use robochallenge mounts :)
yer i could ( i would hav to use my xmas money!!!) :sad:
i flound this helpful

Right I mite just ' borrow' :uhoh: my mums cutting bored thing
just wondering what do people think the voltage is for this kit: http://www.robotmarketplace.com/product ... KT120.html
theo
24volts, they're a expensive way to build a robot!
you can save quite alot of money by just buying some of the components from different places. for instance $188 dollars for 2 12v sla's and some velcro? i dunno what amperage they are but i bought 4 12v 10ah sla's for £50 off component shop.
That's what I am doing, I was looking for the volts so I can see if I could get a esc cheap and 2 batterys if I did go with that idea and i have found a set of batterys cheap so when my feather is done and hopefully win some comps!!!
so are you planning on building a middleweight then?
well maybe but it will be a heavyweight and be improved slowly!!!!! 8) like armour, weapons, motors stuff like that, just wondering what are you building at the mo?
Heavyweight, i'll put some pictures up of it after i've seen your creation!
as i said computer not that working
(so ipod only for abit) :cry:
still waiting for the co2 bottle to be sent!!! dmac
ah yes i know the feeling of not being able to use computer (for some reason my mac blows up a dvi to vga adapter each month). i managed to upload pictures by taking the pictures on my iphone and using the photobucket app to upload. this would only work for you though if you have the latest ipod touch with the cameras.
i hav a ipod 3gen soooooo :angry:
shame, do you know what's wrong with your computer?
No not really it froze and when turned on it said date lost or something like that when my sister had it (she got a new laptop for uni)but it is 3 years old and iTunes was being dumb ( it deleted all my songs off my iPod, yep all 793 off my laptop but luckly no off my iPod!!!!
hi
just wondering how do people mount there speed cons the sabertooth i know you screw it in but do people cover it to stop metal and other stuff getting onto the esc
Theo
buy a box from maplins, aluminum ones are about £5
Hi haven't been on for a long time! And haven't been doing much on the robot :(.
Just wondering how do you fill a co2 bottle up for tests? And sozz if any random words as on my iPad (can't buy anything as saving for a iMac)
weird. i just read thought this earlier :shock:
