So our lift is made of aluminum. we have linear slides to pick up cubes. but the linear slides are weighing the lift down. we upped the power to 200% and is still no going high enough. i don’t have any pictures for you guys. just need some suggestions before the 7th of December.
‘Not getting high enough’ indicates your bands aren’t pulling with a near-constant force, look up some of the methods for triangle banding to keep the bands a balanced force.
oh, I would suggest making custom linear slides because they are much lighter than the steel vex ones. You should also use the 100 rpm torque cartridges.
you can use standoffs and high strength bearing blocks. standoffs are just smaller than high strength shafts so it creates i slide. it works quite well
