White Paper Discuss: Dual-motor, dual-speed gearbox

[Elgin Clock]

I've never responded to a white paper before but..


Ok, Wetzel gave me this link to this particular white paper and we started investigating this design as a possibility on this years robot for my team.

We ran into a bunch of design inconsistencies while planning the fabrication on this.

Some we solved by trial and error, but I just wanted to let you all know that there are problems with this design.

For one, the shaft location holes are in different places on the Y axis of the part and they don't line up when put together.

But, we solved that problem but still want to verify the correct gear for the bosch output shaft.

Is it supposed to be a 55 or 56 tooth gear?


If wetzel or anyone from Team 116 can answer these questions, please reply here.

Thanks.

BTW, I am not the one who found the inconsistancies, I am just relaying the word and trying to find solutions for my team's mechanical team.
