Re: CIM Voltage and Motor Suggestions

Hey Kevin, WOW thanks for that awesome spreadsheet! And it's got those numbers and specifications we all love!

For those Dewalt motors/gearboxes:

What do you mean by "the parts you'll need will run you from $100-$150 per motor. Depending on how much case you want around it." ?

I was looking at the ServiceNet link you gave me, the "motor pack" part number is 389010-00 and the transmission part number is 388974-00. Buying one of each costs around $90. For our project, we have a protective aluminum shield around the underside of our robot. (Where the motors, electronics, batteries, etc. are mounted) So, I don't think we need much case around the motors/transmission. Would we be set if we just bought the motor pack and transmission?
