7.1 Motor sizing :

We are using 2 DC geared motors for the movement of our bot.

REQUIRED INFORMATION:

Rated RPM AT 12 V RATED Torque IN kg-cm AT 12 V
1000 0.12
500 0.25
300 0.35
200 0.5
100 1.2
60 2
30 4
15 8
10 12
3.5 30

By all the means of calculation, we got our total mass of our model to be 4.1kg and also we got our mass for each sub-parts. thereby we found the torque for each part as shown below:

  • Dimensions of chassis= (l=25 x b=15 x h=0.1)+(h=0.1 x l=6.5 x b=5.7)= 41.2 cm^3 mass of chassis= density x volume = 7.8 * 41.2 = 321.36g
  • mass of dc motor= 130 x 2= 260g

a) Moving Unit

Weight of the model = 4.1 Kg
F = M*A = 4.1 * 9.81 = 40.221N
T=Fr = 40.221*0.039 = 1.56kg-cm
As the torque is 1.56, therefore our desired motor is of 60 RPM
