Re: Andymark Planetary Transmission...

Quote:
Which gearbox are you refereing to? If you are talking about the AM Planetary Gearbox (http://www.andymark.biz/am-0002.html),then yes you have to remove the existing gear and press the new gear that comes with the planetary on to the shaft of the motor.
Yeah, that's the one, but to my knowledge it did not come with a new gear.
:S As we are a rookie team we weren't aware of this.
I do not believe our school has an arbor press either.

Is it a viable option to drill out the mounting pate to a diameter that would accept the gear?
