NEW Prebuilt 6WD RC Snow Plow Robot

Description:

This is a prebuilt of our new 6WD RC Snow Plow. We just redesigned our Remote Controlled Snow Plow and made it more powerful and more reliable! The chassis is a rigid gusseted 3/16" thick aluminum frame that was redesigned to mount the plow further back on the robot. This allows for better plow positioning when plowing at an angle. The plow is now raised and lowered using an electric linear actuator. It is also removable so you can use the robot for other purposes such as hauling/towing material and equipment. The other big design improvement is that we are now using wheelchair motors, which give the robot more power. The wheels are mounted on 0.75" OD solid steel axles, each of which are supported by two heavy duty pillow block bearings. The three wheels on either side are chain coupled, giving the robot 6WD. The robot uses differential steering (movement is based on two separately driven wheels placed on either side of the robot body). It can thus change its direction by varying the relative rate of rotation of its wheels and "pivot turn" in place. See our ATR page for more details about our All Terrain Robots.
