This is a smoke test of the MotoMan Flamethrower. This lightweight Flamethrower will mount onto a Motoman UP50 arm and move around while generating a 20 ft flame.

A smoke test is useful for determining the flame length of a blower type flamethrower. The flame will be about 20% longer than the length of the smoke column before it goes non linear. In this case about 25′ long. The blower generates 17,000 CFM of air and can combust 9 gallons of diesel per minute.

This is the first start of the 550CC Two Stroke powered Flamethrower for the SRL Motoman UP50 Robot Arm. This is a light weight unit with a mixed flow axial fan generating 15000CFM of air, mixed with 9 gallons per minute of diesel injected at 4000 PSI. The Motoman arm will be programmed to wave it around, making it the worlds first robotic flamethrower. (Note the Aluminum puck on the rear of the unit. Thats where it attaches to the Motoman UP50 Arm).
