Re: Andymark Plaction wheels vs IFI wheels

My fault, I meant the wheel perimeter (or rather, surface) itself does not change to accommodate the tread--i.e. it doesn't open as the Plactions do.


I'll also note that we used the 4" Plactions on the end of co-axial pivot modules for crossing both the 2010 bump and the 2012 barrier (and the 2011...field). No problems here, they're some serious wheels. I'd be interested to know how one could crack them. We're still constantly running the 2010 robot (falling off our practice bridge...) with no issues.
