Re: White Paper Discuss: Team 188 Woburn Robotics 2004 Gearbox Design Report
I don't believe that I used AutoCAD at all for this, so I'm not sure which file you mean.

Do you mean the Pro/ENGINEER CAD files? I have those, and can arrange to post them or send them, if you'd like. Actually, I've also got a design for an uprated version of this gearbox (that we never built). It's pretty much the same, but with small improvements to make it more durable, lighter and more maintainable. Let me know if you can use that data.

One other thing: in addition to a CIM FR801-001, this gearbox was designed to use the Bosch/Scintilla 3360 drill motor that was in the 2003 and 2004 FRC kits, and the Fisher-Price/Johnson BP03027 motor from the 2004 kit. Gear ratios, pitches and positions are selected to work around those two old motors, and as a result, even though the design will probably work with current hardware, it's not going to be optimal.
