Re: Which motor to use for the vaccum? (ball gripper)
This is the first year that we are seriously using the 500 series motors. A FP for the intake. We two conveyors to hold 2 balls each driven by 550. The turret rotated by window motor. Feeder rollers for the shooter driven by 550. Shooter wheel spun by rs775v18.
Back to the subject of this thread for the intake roller. We are planning to use the kop Fisher Price motor on a BaneBot 60 4:1 tran. Using the shaft as a pulley with cold shrink. A vacuum cleaner belt to an Al tube with cold shrink. Overall ratio 7.1;1.
After seeing what some on this thread have done with the fp plastic gear boxes, I plan to experiment with them in the future. Thanks
