Re: Swerve Drive CAD

This is a cool setup. As far as your bearing system is concerned. I think it is more than strong enough. I also designed and built a swerve drive system this summer. It had two plastic sleeve bearings, and a 50 thousandths thick steel washer on top of the caster box. This option saves money and weight, and is more than strong enough.

Some suggestions: plan for multiple frame and mounting options. Include any encoders that you plan on using in your design. If possible Plan on your chains stretching, and put tensioning mechanisms in the design.
