Re: Bulk Run of Tank Track by Feb 1st

cglrcng has a good point. There are quite a lot of different configurations of tracked vehicles. When I designed this track system I wanted it to be modular and highly configurable. So you could easily change your design.

One of my other customers is a University building a robot like what cglrcng mentioned. They ordered a set of Tank Chain and are in the process of upgrading their robot. They had problems with the conveyor belt they were using for track because it didn't have grip.

Re: Bulk Run of Tank Track by Feb 1st

I just wanted to give a small update. The mold is being machined right now and should be completed shortly. Our other parts have shipped from China and should also arrive in a few days. I talked with the injection molder today and we are on schedule to have 7500 parts molded on Feb 1st and 2nd. We plan to be packaging parts that evening and putting them in them mail the next day. So everything is on track to mail out parts the first week of February.

Talked with the injection molding company and it sounds like they will be able to run the parts in two days. I am planning on being onsite the first day and we should be able to ship most of the orders out from the first batch of parts. So most orders will ship out Feb 2nd.

We increased our order of injection molded parts, so there is still plenty of parts for other teams.
