Re: Need Help With Sheet Metal Designing
JTN,
Think when you get to the assembly stage how hard to get your frame square with the current design. Think about the process to get the frame built and how to adjust/replace the swerve pods. Which parts are put together first and assembly to each other?
A example would be to built 2 each of two mirrored swerve modules. Test the swerve modules motors and steering independently of the frame. Assemble to frame.
The frame is what holds the swerve modules nice and square. It looks like there are a lot of pieces that have to mate together and be square and strong, lightweight. Consider using one piece of metal for the frame and bending it into a box structure. The hole to hole tolerances with be higher than multiple pieces assembled together and you will find that bending the piece will make the frame stiff and square.
