Hydraulic Question

[adey2004]

Hi the 8 valves are for

1. Boom
2. Stick
3. Thumb
4. Bucket
5. Breaker
6. Rotaing bucket!
7. Grapple
8. On the 316 the plough or out riggers.

The cost is the marginaly the same if its 1 or 10 so i thought i would go with 8. For around £250 in stainless

The 316 will more than likely have a wheeled under carridge but the 974 will have tracked.

I will look a the jung pump because i have designed the rear balest areas as the tank / filled with lead balls as apparantly if i want to klift 10kg at 1.2m then the model needs to weigh 20kg with 11kg of ballest?

Still cant get the calcs to work with the stick cylinder, would it look wrong / off scale if this cylinder was twice the diameter of the main boom ones, or alternatively if there were two?

If anyone gets some time, could they try and crush a set of scales with there stick only and see what kind of forces are the norm

Cheers

Adey

where are you getting valves made for 250 quid? depends how scale you want it to look i guess, my boom cylinders are 16mm and my stick is 20mm
