    hi guys, I get that motros for a low price. Now i need to calculate the chasis. For that i need to nkow the torque and rpm of the motors. Withe this information, someone can helpr to me, please?? They have encoder also. Is a good option to build a 2 dof?

    There’s practical ways like with weight and an output arm, but there’s probably more sophisticated ways that might or might not be easier. Some web searches would probably give you some thoughts.

    Or, sort which part numbers you have and check manufacturers literature to see if you can just look it up.

    https://www.rossi.com/sites/default/files/Catalog_AS_Edition_April_2008_USA_issue.pdf

    That’s the US catalog but might have your motors and gear heads in it. Your photos don’t show the motor data plate well enough to get the numbers off it, but you may have all you need to just look it up.

    you need a balance weight and a lever attached to your motor shaft
    you'll let the motor arm stall against the balance and see what you got
    watch out the motor temperature as stalling is not healthy for it...

    or use a torquemeter :p

    they look like 450 watts

    what is the ratio of the gearbox ?

    [QUOTE = "Gadget999, publicación: 213399, miembro: 20168"] parecen 450 vatios

    ¿Cuál es la relación de la caja de cambios? [/ QUOTE]
    I dont know. I am searching the information but its dificult. Too much posibilities in the Rossi motorreductori

    count the number of turns of the motor to one turn of the gearbox

    [QUOTE = "Gadget999, publicación: 213409, miembro: 20168"] cuente el número de vueltas del motor a una vuelta de la caja de cambios [/ QUOTE]
    How can i do It? :D

    Finaly today I contact with the builder and the motor has nominal 62 Nm, 100 Nm Max.
    El motorremotorreductor works at 30 rpm. It is very very slowly??
    This week I am working out if my house and i dont have the pc to work with the sim calculator

    Depends a bit on the motor max RPMs, but even so a longer lever will increase the linear speed, at the cost of some torque, you can mess around with those parameters in SimCalc.

    [QUOTE = "noorbeast, publicación: 213492, miembro: 10786"] Depende un poco de las RPM máximas del motor, pero aun así una palanca más larga aumentará la velocidad lineal, a costa de un poco de torque, puede jugar con esos parámetros en SimCalc. [/ QUOTE]
    I cheked with a rpm counter and the motor has in the axis 30 rpm. This week I Will do the calculate with the sim calculator

    do you already have them - if so just go with them and see how you get on

    on the back of the motor is it a brake or a speed sensor ?

    [QUOTE = "Gadget999, post: 213510, member: 20168"] ¿ya los tienes? Si es así, ve con ellos y mira cómo te va

    en la parte trasera del motor, ¿es un freno o un sensor de velocidad? [/ QUOTE]
    It is an encoder.

    ok - you may be able to use the encoder to get accurate positioning

    how many pulses per revolution ?

    What drivers can I use to move the motors? What options can I have?

    H guys, i am come back at home. start today with the Sim Calculator. Is a beat difficult to me for the language. I dont understand very good what want to say the text. i make the calculate of the ctc with the lever in 120 mm and 200 mm but i am not sure I do the rigths parameters. I know the torque of the motor is 62 Nm and 30 rpm, I have this results, Are the parameters ok??
