Re: ADT build
Very nice build!
I'm looking forward to the updates with a lot of anticipation! For some while I've been pondering with an ADT build myself, but it likely won't happen for real for a few years more. Anyways, I was playing with the idea of using gas springs for the bed lift (very cheap) and then a powerful gear motor to pull it back down again with a wire rope. I was thinking something like 2x15kg gas springs 150mm stroke: - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/free...296134474.html and this gear motor: - https://www.ebay.com/itm/231911256302 And then some wire rope around 1mm thickness: - https://www.ebay.com/itm/222599707119 There is very little extra room to go on for the cylinder with the very long stroke they have to have to get a proper angle on the bed when tipping. I don't think an inline electric motor (like in the electric actuators) will enable you to get a cylinder that mounts in the normal positions or will provide the normal tipping angle for the bed. Best regards, Stein :-) |
