Okay so what I am trying to do is to design a robotic arm with 5 degree of freedom, out of one is rotator of the entire arm setup, Other degree of freedom includes extension of robotic arm upwards forwards leaning of robotic arm up and down, and then further leaning and bending setup, refer to the given diagram, sorry I am new to CAD and not good with drawings.
Please suggest any improvements in the given structure if you feel like, I would really appreciate that and also I would like to Know how much area should I consider for 1 for effective rotation upto 30 kgs, actually this setup needs to be installed on moving body, so I have to install it such that it dont takes much area, and more the area larger the motor and higher the torque.
Hi
The range of the joint angle(specially for joint 1) is not the problem to deal the required payload (in your case 20 - 30 kg).
The first need is to have a motor at the base and then at the other joints that will deliver the required torque generated after integrating the suitable gear-box with each joint.
while working, the configuration of the arm is important for safe and efficient load handling (mainly for the joints of the shoulder and the elbow).
Good luck
