That is one heck of a shaft...nice

Re: pic: 254/968 More Swerve Parts!
I don't believe it. The other picture has what looks to be the drive shafts for the outer wheels, and these look like the transmission output shafts. With those parts, it could be a coaxial swerve, but these output shafts seem excessively long for that.

they are going their normal west coast drive this is the exact part for thier dog shifting transmission output shaft! lies i tell you!:p

Oh Travis, you're a funny guy.

Re: pic: 254/968 More Swerve Parts!
Hey Travis, Did you do these with soft jaws on the mill? Or just a 4th Axis? I was hexing a few shafts at work the other day and we used a lathe with live tooling and a tailstock center. What in your opinion is better?

Re: pic: 254/968 More Swerve Parts!
Yeah Cory here is a question for you, how long have you been making that same shaft? I pretty sure you guys have that one down to a science, it doesn't get any more efficient then a screw machine either. Great stuff, out of curiosity whats your tolerance on the machined hex?
|
Re: pic: 254/968 More Swerve Parts!
We have made shafts similar to these since 2007. The 2006 shafts were slightly simpler and didn't have the 5/8" hex. Each year the shaft changes slightly as well, usually to accommodate differing gearbox configurations, wheel width changes, etc.
The tolerance on the hex portions of these shafts is +-.0005, but that may be overkill depending on the precision you require and the amount of slop you deem acceptable. |

For season our sponsor with a live-tooled lathe runs them, the next best thing to a screw machine in this case. |
Re: pic: 254/968 More Swerve Parts!
For small amounts of in house things we use a manual indexer on the mill, during season a sponsor with a live tooling lathe makes them.
