    Geometric definition...
    Any suggestion in order to maximize motion performance?

    With such cranks will require powerful engines!
    What motorization and what load do you envisage?

    Thanks for point out @momoclic...; to be honest I did not take care too much regarding the crank length..., could you advise me about the typical range for cranks, load and motorizations?

    Could anybody indicate me how to calculate the max. motion angles with a certain geometrical configuration for the platform...?, or where could I find info about this issue...

    Thanks again!
