Volvo G990 Grader
Hello all,
Finally I got the time to start the already promised thread about my grader build. Having started the planning in 2005 this is already a long time project bound to take still quite some years to finish. So expect some frequent postings until I catch up with the present state of things and thereafter... hmm, you´ll probably need some patience *. Anyway, here some basic model data: Scale . . . . .: 1:8 Length . . . .: 1222 mm (48") over front wheels Width . . . . : 363 mm (14.3") Height . . . . : 408 mm (16") Moldboard Width . . . . : 533 mm (21") Height: . . . : 85 mm (3.4") Tires Diam. . . . . : 185 mm (7.3") Width . . . . : 70 mm (2.75") Weight : 40 to 50 kg (88 - 110 lbs) (estimated depending on equipment) Material: Mainly stainless steel, some brass Drive: Electric 200 W (planned). All hydraulic, 10 circuits + 5 for implements, max pressure estimated 40 bars (580 psi). Radio not yet decided, but will need to control some 30 functions. Here some CAD drawings for a first overview: Stefan *) If you read some German and can´t wait you could also visit this forum for the latests additions . Edit: Sorry to say, the picture links in posts #1 to #263 have been broken due to a takeover of the cloud service provider . I managed to save the pics to another, hopefully more reliable provider, but the work to repair the links turns out to be very tedious, and will take quite some time.
