It's been hard to find enough detail from some CD research, but here are some I found. 1625 ran 2x1 frame with 9mm wide belt http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=86668 2791 looks like they used 2x1 with a single 9mm belt in 2011, but I think they mentioned ratcheting going full fwd to reverse. Also needs idlers to maintain proper wrap, I would rather avoid that. (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=94701) 2791's 2012 chassis looks like 4x2 tubing with two 15mm belts. (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh....php?t=101454). More weight, and requires >4" wheels, but solves the belt problem at least. |

Our drivetrain was literally maintenance free since we first set it up in week 4. Not a thing needed to be maintained. It was wonderful. |

I'd guess we're venturing into a thread takeover at this point...We utilized 5mm, 15mm width HTD belts with great success this year. We ran these on 24tooth pulleys.

Thanks! I saw how your treads worked at worlds... very nice.

I'm really curious to know more about people's specific implementations with timing belts, please post about it in this thread;

Re: pic: 2012 frc971 transmission
what is the reduction on that?

As stated in other places, we have had good experiences with timing belt in 2010, and wanted to get rid of more chain. We are looking at making a couple of minor tweaks to this design to make it easier to swap wheels, move the encoder to the center wheel/last reduction, and maybe make it lighter. This design served us pretty well this last year. |
