Weight of Triac head and motor?

Post by Roy » Sun 23 Dec , 2007 12:16 pm

Just wondered if anyone knows the combined weight of the triac head and motor?
I am just looking at making a counter-balance to lessen the chances of the z axis stalling. I could work out/ take an educated guess at the weight, but if someone already knows it would make things a bit easier.

thanks, and Merry Xmas

I have taken an educated 'guestimate' that the weight is around 20kg.
The counter-balance is almost finished so i will post some pics soon.
