DIY homemade 48V electric compact loader

My v2.0 fully electric wheel loader. Built mostly from scrap.

It would be nice to see footage of it in action

[@markusbFPV]

I will try to make a video soon. I have a short clip from 2 years ago when i move some snow, kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYa0emmmecaciK8

Action footage uploaded today! Enjoy :)

3:11 tis look like a pump for power steering right? (48v 9kw motor may I know where you brought from?any link.)

[@markusbFPV]

Yes thats the power steering pump. I moved it later in the build. Its 800W if I remember correct, not 400W. The 9kW pump was salvaged from a Hyster R1.6 -99 along with the drive motor and speed controllers. For me it was free but Id guess it would cost about $5000 to buy as spare parts. Better find an other donor forklift or something and salvage from.

[@fourcm2008]

@@markusbFPV that is big size I guess? 9kw hydraulic pump is not common on market. Asspecially from cina , only can find 48v 4kw .

[@markusbFPV]

@@fourcm2008 Yes 9kW is a big pump motor. I think 4kW is more than enough for a small loader but it will take a little more time to move the loader as you have to use a pump with lower output, lower cc. If you want to build a machine I suggest going to the local scrap yard ar forklift service dealer and ask if they have any used stuff they want to sell or donate.

Så otroligt snyggt byggt! Härligt, önskar man kunde göra det samma... Har sneglat på små Avantmaskiner, men vad ska man med allting när man bara har en liten trädgård? :D Du skulle filma mer när du använder den, det skulle många uppskatta!

[@markusbFPV]

Tack! Klart du ska bygga eller köpa nån minilastare, du kommer på användningsområden du inte trodde existerade så fort du har den till hands. Ja jag ska försöka göra något filmklipp framöver på hur den beter sig. Filmer är alltid roligare än bilder :)

[@creamtube]

@@markusbFPV Hyrde en ganska slut Avant av den minsta sorten, fick med grävarm som inte orkade hålla emot. Läckte hydraulolja som ett såll. Schakta bort jord och spred ut grus, grävde kabeldike mellan nya och gamla garaget... Helt kär, vill ha en egen :D Sen hjälper det inte att man kollar Andrew Camarata och sånt på utube... Din mindre elfrontlastare skulle sitta som smäck vid vedhanteringen t.ex.

[@markusbFPV]

@@creamtube Du skulle ju kunna bygga något kul av en liten trädgårdstraktor. Där har du en bra utgångspunkt för en liten maskin för dom små jobben :) Ja Andrew är en härlig prick, har följt honom i många år. Tycker om att han använder gamla prylar för att få jobben gjorda.

[@creamtube]

@@markusbFPV jag har haft tanken. Frågan är om det blir stabilt nog på mindre traktor... Men men. Något ska fixas, nån gång...när man tar sig tid x)

[@markusbFPV]

@@creamtube sök på ex bolens loader, bolens backhoe och liknande så ser du vad en sån liten maskin är kapabel till. du hanterar några hundra kilo med en sådan iaf, och den gräver nog minst så bra som en liten läckande avant :)

[@henriklavett]

Nu är det dags för en video med maskinen in action 😁

[@markusbFPV]

Du har helt rätt! Får se till att filma lite material i dagarna :)

[@markusbFPV]

Nu äntligen fick jag tummen ur! Actionfilmen hittar du bland mina videos :)

[@rustedratchetgarage6788]

Very impressive narrowing the axle seems counterproductive as wider stance means more stability when load is lifted High and it looked like it took a lot of time maybe smaller axles out of a small truck like an S10 or Toyota would be a good option

[@markusbFPV]

Thank you. I had a witdh limit thats why I did that. I wanted the machine to be relatively compact, and lifting heavy loads is no problem aslong as you dont lift to high and turn the machine, but that is not an issue for my use :) Even with those axles mentioned I would have had to shorten them to fit my limit.

[@7891ph]

So where in Europe are you??? I'm guessing Northern Europe, judging by the plants. As for the design of the machine itself, my only beef is with the design of the lift cylinders for the loader. The stationary ends of the cylinders is way too high for best mechanical advantage, i.e. to close to the stationary pivots for the loader arm's. They're much better than a lot of loader's I've seen coming out of Russia, but the design has the mechanical force's fighting the structure of the machine instead of lifting the load at the bottom of the lift arm range of motion. Your uprights are being put under a tremendous amount of extra strain because of that. On the plus side, you built it heavy enough that it's working, and your weld's look very good.

[@markusbFPV]

Hi! Im in Sweden so it was a good guess! Yes you are probably right. I looked at many compact loaders at various shops before building this one. Its very similar in many ways. The same thought crossed my mind when looking around, but it seems its a trade of between many factors. Lift height, cylinder lenght and also depth of the loader front part. With lower upright mounting position I would need much longer cylinders or build the uprights deeper. I wanted the machine to lift high enough without being to long in the loader so thats why I decided to make it like this. Yeah there is alot of force involved and I made it as sturdy as I possibly could with the material at hand. So far no problems :) The weakest point is actually the top mount beam for the tilt cylinder. I could easily break the machine if I misbehave to much with the tilt.. Thanks for your input!
