Motors for Intake Rollers
Our team is planning on using intake rollers for our robot's manipulator. We were thinking of using one BB RS540 for each the top and the bottom. We haven't used these motors before and don't know what kind of reduction is appropriate. What type of ratio do you think would be optimal to reduce the speed of the motors down to that of the rollers?
