Re: Wheel Encoders

Our drivetrain designers gave me this picture to upload. It's a 3 cim assembly. It's a custom gearbox. I don't know much more. If I find out more I'll edit this post.

Also, another question of my own: will I need more than one encoder per side?

Thanks,

Benjamin

Re: Wheel Encoders

Can't quite see the detail on the CIMs there, but if you have the shaft length to spare then the CIM encoder suggested above would be the easiest, you do however lose some of the play in the gear-train, but on a drive train this is usually negligible.
