Directly proportional to the tray, what angle should the tiller be at?} With my tilter I’ve had trouble mounting it that it doesn’t interfere with the tray, but when I make a vertical flip out the intake rollers start interfering with the arm itself. Is there any which I can do other than changing t…

I would have a c-channel mounted to gears, attached to 2 more c-channels on a joint, connected to the tray on a joint. I dont currently have pictures, sorry. If you could provide pictures of your flipout for the rollers that would be great, also, if your tray is at an angle that is hard to push cube…

my team did the math, and apparently when the tray is perpendicular to the ground, the angler’s two c channels should be straight, and basically align to make it one large line. I can ask them how they figured that out if you want, but that has worked really well for us so far.

I’ve found that different angles constitute to different amounts of power required. Do you have a diagram for what you’re refering to?

@33691A-Gold_Dusk I have that too :smiley:

What our team did for our tipper is that we had a short c-channel attached to a gear, and then two long standoffs pivoting on the c-channel to give us more torque. It is really just about trial and error, and what works for your robot.

I believe this and what @33691A-Gold_Dusk have works for about every robot: [20190930_171715]

My tilter is always at the same angle as the tray and the part of the tilter that pushes the backing of the tray is always level with the ground. I intentionally cadded it to have this property so I can easily model the tray’s angle mathematically.

@mvas a picture or cad screenshot would be great if you could. I believe I still have improvements to make

I have a super janky tilter that definitely needs reworking. The bars arent perfectly parallel because I dont have anything long enough. It’s also built super weirdly too.
