Eye Of The Robot - Challenge Belt
Id like to enter:
Holepunch
Weight: 100kg
Length: 100cm
Width : 70cm
Height: 40cm at the top of the beak, 28cm at the top of the armour.
Armour: 40mm Hdpe and 8mm 7075 aluminium baseplate.
Speed: 13mph - powered by 2 wheelchair motors running overvolted at 36v. with 150mm wheels
Shape: Razer-esqe looks, wedge at the front, a bit more boxy with rounded edges at the back.
Weapon: A Pneumatic crusher (yes i said Pneumatic) with a 250mm bore 120mm stroke full pressure 7075 aluminium 15mm wallthickness ram, giving a massive 25+ tonnes of force on the ram. this is levered down 2:1 giving 12.5 tonnes of force at the tip.
The Ram is fed by 4 burkert valves from 4 corners of the ram providing maximum flow to the ram. The beak is retracted by 2 gas springs at the front under the beak still protected from the sides.
Strengths: Very fast working beak, with tremendous force.The gear ratios on wheelchair motors provide a lot of pushing power all be it not very fast.
Weaknesses: This thing guzzles gas like a Hummer sucks petrol. I only have 5 to 7 good bites before the gasbottle starts to drain depending on the weather. To save weight I had to go for a slow drive. Selfrigting is also not garantueed.
Ground Clearance: 0mm at the front due to a sloaped front that scrapes the floor. 10 mm at the rear.
Srimech: when lucky it rolls over when the beak is in top position due to the low centre of gravity.
Notes: Still in development, so it is probably going to have some teething problems.

If you wish to know how young, just check my profile :wink
and I have about 6 days left, and plenty of free time if you give me an old design. Ill give you a deal - you can post an old design of yours now, but if by Sunday, the entries arent all in, THEN Ill let you enter the new robot. Is that fine with you?
