Re: Swerve Drive CAD

The swerves my team produced this summer used two quadrature incoders from USD. Theyare not absolute, but they are very precise, and they have a built in homing tick. They work nicely, but when I put them in the CAD drawing, they almost didn't fit. That's because the swerves are compact, they only take up a 6" by 6" box.

Re: Swerve Drive CAD

We used the CUI encoders on our climbing arm this year, and didn't have any problems with them except for user error. I would have used the USD encoders, but they cost almost twice as much. Both encoders should have enough space. One is mounted on the top, and the one on the bottom is farily far away from the caster.
