Swerve Modules
- Pivot top/tube assemblies were welded using a turntable jig.
- Bearing holes in the module top plate (1 hole) and bottom plate (2 holes) were finished for tight fit using the Boring Tool. Holes needing tapping were tapped (by hand).
- Two additional old swerve modules were disassembled - mining for COTS.
- The transfer axles were assembled.
- We found the long-lost sensor flex couplings
- Bearings (1" & 1/2" flanged) were pressed into the module bottom plate
- Top bearing mounts were 3-d printed
- CVT pulleys were 3-d printed
- Started mounting top bearings into module top plate. (3) finished (more bolts needed - we neglected to purchase these).
- Pressed needle bearings into the top and bottom of the Pivot Tube.
Shooter - Parts cut by CNC Router.
