When Building any of the linkage arms (4-bar, 6-bar DR4B, etc. what shape(s) are you typically trying to recreate within the structure peices that make up the arm.

Parallelogram

Triangle

Square

Circle

With all arms and lift systems what is the primary concern when the system is fully extended?

Tipping of the robot

There are no special concerns in this situation

Strain on motors

Stability of the construction

When considering scissor lifts what attribute of the lift has the biggest impact on the amount of touque is required to lift the lift?

The material the lift is built out of

They mechanism used to drive the lift

The number of cross supports on the lift.

Number of sections on the lift
