Animatronicshop.com | Learning can be fun Actobotics Overlapping hole patterns offer extreme versatility when designing and building structures. By incorporating precision shafting and tubing, the indexed angles you can achieve are virtually unlimited. Put your project in motion using Actobotics pulleys, belts, sprockets, chain and more! ActoboticsTM Q&AHow do I know if a part is an Actobotics component? “Designed for industry, university, and advanced experimenters, Actobotics’ numerous beams, shafts, gears, bearings and other components are well designed for sensible interconnection to produce electromechanical prototypes and even finished products.The ServoBlocks and servo gearboxes enhance standard servo performance providing robust mechanical motion to many designs.” - Tom CarrollRobotics Engineering Writer and Consultant ActoboticsTM is...Precise.

Gear Motor 2 - 224:1 Offset Shaft :: Solarbotics Hey - are you making a certain Most Useless Machine? We also have the wheel, motor mount, battery holder, and SPDT switch you'll need to build your project. Solarbotics is the sole commercial outlet for these impressive 224:1 gearmotors. They are very comparable to a hobby servo for power, at a fraction of the cost! This motor offers 48.6 in*oz of torque at 3V, rotating 360 degrees every 1.5 seconds (24 rpm - just a hair slower than a servo), drawing 400mA at stall (free running at 40mA). With a 7mm double-flat output shaft (avoid using the "D" output - it's not meant to take rotational load), and a built-in clutch (limiting at 60 in*oz, but easily "locked"), and built-in mounting screw holes, you can see why we like these motors! These units have an overall size of 55mm (2.17") x 48mm (1.89") x 22.7mm (0.894") thick, while only weighing 31.4 grams or 1.11 ounces. Check out this quick tutorial for how to modify the GM2 from a torquey slow 224:1 ratio to a speedy 14:1 ratio.

The main parts of an omni-directional drive system are comprised of the following: wheels, gear reduction, and motors. In 1973, Bengt Ilon, Swedish inventor working for a company named Mecanum, AB, formulated an idea for a wheel which could move in any direction, thus the term "omni-wheel". Ilon's original concept was to attach a number of free-wheeling rollers, around a rim, with the rollers oriented at 45º with respect to the wheel’s axis of rotation. This feature would allow the wheel to move not only perpendicular to the axis of rotation, but also at any angle between +45º and -45º degrees. This strange-looking wheel is also known as the "Ilon Wheel" or the "Mecanum Wheel". Non-continuous periphery of the omni wheel limits its uses to applications where slow speeds only are required.
