Hi Marnix Back off Holiday and lookong forward to getting moving again with my project, Christmas spending never ends but ya gotta do what ya gotta do . anyways saw your thread and guess you could call it jumping on the band wagon but would also like to ask if i could get access to your data sheets as i am always looking into differnt means of actuation for my current 2DOF platform Project .... Had a look at a Design Made availabel at the Built For Fun website and that looks very doable easily within the average joes ability if your in this level of the game . but alway worry about long term pounding and loading my platform will subject any DIY actuator to . My Current Ower Steering hybrid Rack system works very well but, not yet stressed it out to the max as i am still developing the new Motion software which is based on Jims taster VB6 Code. so any new ideas regarding DIY actuator options or the science behind their construction are welcomed .. Cheers ..

I have uploaded the files here in mycockpit download library, as soon as the upload has been approved they will be available for download.
This first set of files is the option if you want to use DC geared motors, this was wat I was first planning and is used by the most manufacturers.
As I have mentionned before, the servo motor market has dropped in price, so this type of motors is in fact made for these kind of things. I am still waiting on a few details on these ones, so as soon as I have them I will also upload the files.[

Here you have it in detail :
Motor = DC motor PENTA POWER
type 4L20 - 600W – 2000 rpm – 180VDC
B5/IEC71 – IP 54
PRICE : 460 Euro/pc
Reductor Type AMP60/3 – ratio 128/1 – Max Koppel 460Nm
As diam 35 mm – 6000N
PAM B5/IEC71
PRICE : 445 Euro/PCE
Steering = KB PENTA POWER type KBMG 212D
230VAC mono
Output variable 0 tot 200V dc
PRIJS : 395 Euro/PCE
Signal Isolator KB PENTA POWER KBSI 240D
PRIJS : 148 Euro/PCE
So roughly you can build a 3DOF motionbase with these industrial motors for a weight to 600 kgs for about 5000 Euro.
And that is exactly wat I am about to do[

Guys, did you even think about wheelchair motors? Those DC motors can be used for motion platform as they are strong and moves smooth, and they are cheap (used from US).
There are only two types of airplanes that matters. Old and new Airbus...
Current projects: Developing of new VA, CNC router and A320 flightdeck.

Wouldn't but much faith in a wheelchair motor to move a 1500-2000lb cockpit.

Hi Goose, regarding wheelchair motors, a had managed to get 4 of these off ebay at a brilliant price ( i tend to get s tuff now on the basis that if i have then more possiblites are open as and when differents ideas come up ) the motors i have have an output speed of typ 71 RPM and are made by FRAMCO as i was looking to beef up my wiper motor/steering Rack actuator i thought these would last longer, i have not yet connected these to my streering rack but based on th wiper motors ability to throw my platform and myself around i dont think they should be a problem and should get rid of the small amount of backdriving a still get with the wiper motors .... more speed would have been nice but at the time & Price they seemed to good to pass up so now my inventory of possible motors stands at 4 off 24Vdc wheelchair motor/gerabox combos, 4 off wiper motors 12Vdc , 4 off electric bed screw jack type linear actuator, ( 2 different makes ) which i got form a Recycling Yard and dont know if they are fuctional ( more like dont know how to wire them up to test since i did not get the control boxes ... ps my platform loaded at present is around 370lbs ( 180Kg ish )... still needs work but concept proves its doable.. Cheers .
