Project #2 - Gearboxes And Other Useful Objects

Great, you have a drivetrain, but it doesn't matter unless you can make it move.


Your task is to create two FTC legal gear-trains that achieves:

  • A minimum 1:16 gear ratio

  • A minimum 128:1 gear ratio

Both geartrains must be fully supported to prevent slipping gears.

Following that you must submit a motor-gearbox combo that achieves the following:

  • Ability to move a wheel at least 2000RPM

  • Ability to exert 200Nm of force on a driven axle.


Each of the four systems submitted must be presented as a series of drawings generated in Fusion 360 (isometric and orthographic as needed). Additionally, they must have an animation of the Fusion design moving(correctly).

Please include your motor specifications and calculations in the drawing text for the final two assignments.

If you need two drawings to illustrate a concept, use two drawings.
