There’s a difference between an DR4B and just a 4 bar…

dr4bs might work out. we need to test in my opinion

Hm. they might be semi-viable for moving your tray up. My 1st initial thought was a dr4b traybot (but a little more optimized), but now I’m thinking of ways to not use a dr4b, or have an elevator system. if you had a wide area of intaking, then had an elevator, you could, theoretically, use it. It’s not the brightest design, but hey, it’s one ig.

#18

What the heck is ball indexing?

#19

Ball indexing is where the robot sorts the colors.

#20

I think I’m going to close this soon, and do another one at the end of this season to see if opinions or designs have greatly changed.
