New Giant 5-8 joints 3x2x1meter Overhead Gantry

Hi
i started to build a coustom new Giant
as of Permission to the Friend i will post the projekt to be here

First image of CAD



the system is to be planed below 10k Euros

it will stand of MESA 7i92 and 2x7i76
the Motors are sugested 12Nm closed loop
the powerconsept is to be at 6000W max
##
there will be a flange 2" tube welded at both ends across so the stability will increase
Rail system is at HGH30
Ballscrew sfu2510 as of the size fixed on place no Rack pinion and no real top speed needed <5m/min
Square tubing is at 100mm/4" 5mm thick so haevy structuer


Some sugestions

good idee
indeed thats what we en tented the weight to the ground may be a small issue
its not clear if the structure will be iron
its a discussion to go on construction wood and get only light parts to the system

so we got a finish base construct


and i will present the FreeCAD File for people how want to get wear stared

here a Simple movement animation

Nice project !

Can be used for Rapid Prototyping scale 1 to 1...
Maybe use a 24v motor brake on the z-axis.

pl7i92: This is all over my head, but just wondering what an overhead gantry is used for? Animation looks cool, tho'!

first shot render
the mashine is used to do bigger parts of hardfoam wood molds

Hi pl7i91
I fear this construction will shake a lot. You have to stiffen it with diagonal truss.

agree there will be alot of more things to get side stiffnes trust me
its a start to calculate material

i only need one side open that is the main problem to get the parts in
with a forklift

maybe a rail system at the bottom and then get it in from there
we will see how it comes

the WOOD is very cheep so no pricing on that
