We received notice that our CIM-U-LATORs have shipped. Hurray!

Would you let us know what day you ordered them to give us an idea when ours might ship?

As of right now, 10 business days seems accurate.

Those who ordered on the 17th had their orders shipped on the 31st, orders on the 18th shipped on the 1st and orders on the 19th were shipped yesterday the 2nd.

Here is another good gearbox option for teams scrapping for an option for a 775.

For low resource teams, the 550 and 775 fit up to an AM planetary.

Can anyone tell me which AM planetary gearbox is compatible with the 775 banebot?

We are a low resource team that is desperate to find a compatible gearbox since Banebot has told us to not expect our gearbox until AFTER the robot's ship date!

Thanks!

There is no directly compatible gearbox, however with minimal modifications the Andymark Planetary that takes the fisher price can be made to work.

With a little bit of time you can do this:

FisherPrice Gearbox with RS775 Motor on it. Press the pinion off of the standard FP motor, drill/ream out to fit the RS775 shaft, press pinion onto RS775, and assemble.

All:

Our CAD team has completed a model of the CIM-U-LATOR for those who need sizing info for design. See the attachment here: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/2444

I'm looking to use four S775 to lift a ten pound arm thats about 60 inches long. Is this overkill, or would it allow me to maximize the speed of raising and lowering the arm?

Any suggestions for a gear ratio/gearbox and where I might be able to get it? The goal is to turn all four output shafts from the banebots motors into a single pivot to move the arm.

Thks in advance!

We put a banebot motor (500 series not the 775) in a dewalt trans, then used a 4 gear reduction to get 400:1 for the arm.

( now if only I could drill horizontally and level)

Scroll down...

Note I didn't order this or check and see if it really was in stock, as the site indicates.

Nice find -- My GoogleFu is pretty strong, but I was having a hard time finding in-stock gearmotors that are 775 compatible... I'm hoping the BB backlog this year results in other companies coming forward with compact, planetary solutions.

Variety = good. Availability = essential!

Thanks for the feedback! Do you know approximately what the gear ratio of this older FP gearbox is? We are looking for something between 50:1 - 100:1.

pfreivald 09-02-2011 08:33

Re: RS775 Gearboxes
 
256:1, I believe. You can remove the last stage to speed it up, though I don't remember exactly what that does to the gear ratio.

Our team ordered from Robot Power Yesterday, and I have received the e-mail that it will ship out this afternoon. Seems like a great site to deal with, but they only ship on Wed. and Friday.
