- KuKa RotoPress Mercedes Benz NG r.c. refuse truck on 1:14 Tamiya chassis
The truck is entirely scratchbuild exept for the chassis.
The truck is not finished yet, and is going to be fully r.c. operational incl. lights and sound.

wow nice creation
i love mercedes NG
me too

That is indeed a lot of power, probably much power enough to rip the truck apart since it is made of plastic! No, my model has just a little above 30kg of pressure when the packer plate is travelling downwards. The piston diameter is 12mm and the pressure is 15 bar. A pair of the biggest cylinders in Leimbachs standard assortment gives the force of 54.2 kg at 15 bar.
For me it was the most important that it really looks and works like the real thing.
First I used a Tamiya 1:16 tank gear and motor, but it was way to weak for the big diameter.
The modelling shop were I'm coming, just bought some heavy duty motors with metal gears used for self lifting hospital beds.
The motor I used is made by Siemens and has a screw driven gearbox with ballbearrings.
Very cool
@KuKa215
Ok! That sure sounds solid enough :) Yes I have seen those claims. And the only way he could have achieved that force is if the cylinders are custom built. At a pressure of 15 bars it would require two cylinders with a piston diameter of 18mm each. Leimbachs biggest standard cylinders have a 16mm piston diameter, and the ones I use are 12mm. he could be running the pump at a higher pressure, but that would void the warranty on the components.
The drum is direct driven by a electric motor and reducers from a hospital bed, to lift a person up and down.
Now the motor is driven by a 1,6 amp. battery and is not very strong.
When the multi function unit is build in, there will be a 4,5 or 5 amp. battery inside.
It will be possible to rotate the drum with various speeds, and the torque will be about 30 kg's / 60 pounds.
Que maravilla
It will be the power on the scoops in the drum.
But the Leimbach hydraulics in your Norba gives 80 kg' s of pressure.
That's almost 3 times more power.
@KuKa215
If those were your goals, then I would say that you have succeeded :-)
Interesting info regarding the motor. I have looked around a bit and no R/C motor I have seen so far will be able to produce the torque you have reached at a reasonable RPM. Will be interesting to see it when you have added the bigger battery-pack.
super mullwagen
The truck itself was about 400 euro, and the materials were about 200 euro's.
I still need 4 servo's, a multi function unit and a transmitter, that will be another 400 euro's.
Complete this truck will be about a 1000 euro's for the materials.
The Tamiya parts are the most expensive.
I think Siemens Fujitsu even deliver the parts for the KuKa robots these days.
@KuKa215
Thanks for the answer! 30kg sounds like a lot! Is that the torque on the outer diameter of the drum?
Cool video my bro my new video How to make garbage truck from cardboard
It could destroy itself if you put something solid inside.
But the truck does'nt break easy, al the parts in the hopper and hinges are made of metal and thick laminated plastics and glasfiber.
The drum is made of a 6 mm thick p.v.c. sewer pipe, reinforced with a metal mesh on the scoops.
The guy who made the Schorling 2R, claims a pressure of 80 kg's on the Leimbachs.
Very nice!! Love the way you have made it look "worn and dusty"! Certainly looks really good and I am excited to follow it's development. Just one question: What kind of motor are you using to rotate the drum? And does it drive the drum directly, or do you use a chain?
Hello i want buy this how can i find this truck and how much does it cost thx
Nice video. I find it difficult to understand how these trucks can compact rubbish effectively apart from the initial stage if it's too big to go in; does the passageway get smaller for 360 degree of the `entrance auger' / channel and then once in the drum the rubbish is just tumbled or am I missing something? The Faun video of their Rotopress doesn't really help me.
Faun claim these trucks to be economical on fuel which I find hard to believe.
schönes Spielzeug, gibt es heute noch sowas zu Kaufen ? wenn ja wo?
How much for the truck????
