BeneBots new plates - has anyone received them?

When can we expect the new, hardened plates for the BaneBots transmission?

Has anyone received them yet, and done testing to see if they are hard enough?

Re: BeneBots new plates - has anyone received them?

Getting them today.... I missed them in the Mail yesterday, so I'm going to the post office to pick them up....

Most teams are having theirs shipped to their regional. I think they do this automatically unless you specify otherwise. Thats what we did, and had to order them again to have them shipped home. Call them with your order number to find out where they are going and when. When I called, they said that they are trying to get them to teams with regionals on Week 1 FIRST (Like us.... NH)...

I'll assemble them later and let you guys know how they work. I'm just a student programmer but I'll try to articulate what I see, but digital pictures will probably be most descriptive.

Re: BeneBots new plates - has anyone received them?

Got mine. Installed them in about an hour (4 of them).

Thank you BaneBots... (I guess... I mean, thanks for fixing your faulty product. At least you owned up to it, unlike problems with other stuff in the past)...

OK, that was probably pretty mean, but I'm just glad that it's all good now. I'm going to run the motors for 4 or 5 hours, just to see how they do.

Re: BeneBots new plates - has anyone received them?

Here it is March 7, and we still have not received the replacement gearbox plates from Banebots.

Is anyone else still waiting?

We called them - their not answering phones, and have emailed them with no reply.

They will be available at the spare parts counter at your regional.
Do yourself a favor and take them over to the venue machine shop
to have the pins spot welded on the back with the TIG welder,
so the pins can't walk out, before installing them.

Re: BeneBots new plates - has anyone received them?

So is Banebots not sending them directly to the teams that requested them?

Re: BeneBots new plates - has anyone received them?

They sent them to our team, after we requested them online. Ours were delivered sometime between ship day and our first regional (Week 1).

There were also some available from spare parts at the regional.

As Dr. Brooks has said, you would be well advised secure the pins to the plates (e.g., by spot welding) before installing them because some teams have had the pins work loose and come out fairly soon after reworking their gearboxes.

Re: BeneBots new plates - has anyone received them?

The team next to us in the pits was having trouble with the new carrier plate on the 56mm trans that powers their arm. It has a lot of torque and load on it, and the new plate damaged the output shaft of the transmission....the plate is hard enough to do that!

this is the carrier plate, I did not get a picture of the shaft.
