 According to that logic, Engineers would say there will be twice as many spectators as needed, and we all know that's not the case! - Taylor [more] |

Also, of course the big CIM has more torque at the posted speed.... but that speed is half the small CIM. If you were to match the speed, the small CIM has more torque. Also, the small CIM draws 133 amps at stall... further confusing me about the numbers you have.

Re: pic: 114 New Gearbox Design
To reliably shift a ball-lock mechanism you need to apply quite a bit of force and apply it very quickly (speaking from experience). Too little force and the plunger won't push the balls into their slots. Too slow and ball bearings skip out of their slots. This is why every ball-lock shifter I have seen (including ours) uses pneumatics, and I can't see how a servo would work.
My suggestion is to make the gearbox have a mounting that can work with both servo and pneumatics. This interchangibility will be very good, as well as making your design more appealing to other people.
