Team: 45, TechnoKats
Drive system: “Howard County” drivebase* configured with two 2-motor gearboxes and 6 traction wheels
Sensors: US Digital E4P encoder (on each gearbox output shaft)

  • We collaborated with the other two teams in our county last fall to develop a lightweight modular drivebase. It can be assembled as a 6-wheel drive with chains and sprockets driving three live axles on each side from a common gearbox, or with four independently-driven live axles at the corners. The gearbox is a pneumatically-shifted AndyMark gear set with custom side plates and an integrated pneumatic brake.
