Description
Specifications
Documentation
This is a lightweight gearbox designed for combining two 500-series motors, to give an output shaft similar to that of a 2.5 in. CIM Motor. It is also designed to have an encoder mounted to it. Please note that this gearbox ships as an un-assembled kit of parts.
Product Usage: All AndyMark gearboxes require grease for proper operation and long life. We suggest using our red tacky grease, am-2768. We also encourage that the user powers the gearbox continuously for 30 minutes without grease to allow the gear teeth to wear in. While we do design with short run times in mind, this 'run in' period for smooth gearbox operation, is recommended. Once this is completed, thoroughly grease the gear teeth periodically to ensure smooth operation.
