Help with Gearboxes
I am in charge of my team's engineeing section and I am contemplating of machining 2 gearboxes (1 per side) to connect 2 motors to one output essentially driving each side with 2 motors. Keep in mind that this will be designed entirely by students but will be machined by professionals. Can you guys give me some tips and suggestions as to the feasibility of this (I know its possible, but is it over the head of a student) and ways I can go about doing this. Thank you very much.
