Re: Conveyor belt motor

We are using a CIM with a 12 to 1 Banebot transmission then geared up using sprockets. It gets those orbit balls up the conveyer in a hurry! Since we have an open top hopper, we're using a piece of bent lexan at the top of the conveyer to prevent balls from shooting out the top of the robot.
