Today is all about planetary Gearboxes and we'll take a closer look at a small and durable 3D printed planetary gearbox. Designed for DIY and Robotics projects, this gearbox packs a punch in a small package. I'll be showcasing its sleek design, smooth operation, and impressive torque capabilities. So sit back and enjoy as we delve into the world of 3D printed planetary gearboxes!

Yet another goated upload! I'll def be keeping this in mind for my next project :)

Thanks man! Yeah I’ve used them in a couple different projects where I’ve needed a bit more juice, they’re pretty handy. Thank you again for being my tried and true YT Supporter haha, it means alot.

Dude, keep it up, ypure doing amazing stuff here. The wall e short brought me here and that alone is an awesome build and really shows your creativity with meshing mechanical techniques in that small form factor. Also utilizing the arduino to its full effect.

Haha Thanks man, that means alot! Yeah wall-e has definitely been a trial and error process I’m excited to see what happens once he’s a little more refined. Comments like these are a huge motivation boost so I can’t thank you enough!

Hey man, sick design. Could you post the link to the solidworks files? I'd like to modify a few things for a certain application

Love this! You definitely need to upload it to printables aswell tho

Between this gearbox and the skid steer, i want to print up a little recovery vehicle/moon rover!

No STEP file? STEP file exists for a very good reason my friend

Reminds me of using a wind up alarm clock as a kid to lift heavy weights like 5 kg and above using a single 1.5 volt battery. The clock had a gear train of like 7 gears with an insane gear ratio. I tried stopping the gear with my fingers and it was chewing through my skin with no problem. Good thing it ran very slow 😂.

I never would’ve thought a clock would be capable of that but that’s so cool! The things you learn haha

is it designed to mount to a nema 17? I would like to print one for a belt driven axis in a 3d printer

Cool! Was the stacked assembly backdrivable?

@professorboots Жыл бұрын

Yep I was able to back drive it up to 4 stacked boxes. You just want to make sure to run them in the forward direction for a couple minutes so they can break in. Then you should be able to get a smooth reverse action.

First thing that happened was my sun gear sliping on the nema shaft with no weight I must have forgotten some thing

Hmmmm the hole is made for a TT motor if you have access to a cad software you could shrink it slightly to provide better grip on your NEMA motor

I've been looking for a Planetary Gearbox this size for my little robot I'm gonna test it with drone motors on 4s so I'll find out if it can handle 36,000 rpm lol

@professorboots Жыл бұрын

Oh boy! Well let me know how that goes I’m curious to hear if the Gears melt together or not haha.

@trarredbandit9734 10 ай бұрын

1. There are no instructions on how to assemble the gearbox. 2. Is it possible for you to share the parts individually instead of an assembly (to print replacement parts). 3. Is there an available mount design for the TT motor? 4. (Request) Could you share the files in a (.STEP) format for specific user design changes?

I don’t see how you need instructions to assemble 3 parts…look at the video: assemble. It’s not rocket science 😂

This design doesnt work if you try and spin the pinion around the rpm of most brushed motors (12k rpm). If you gear the end and put it under load like for a transmission the little pegs on the planet carriers will melt and cause your transmission to seize up. Thery need to be made of metal for this design. It makes sense now why when I search for geared motors all of them use a compound gear train design. I believe it's because there's only one revolute relationship and there's no translation in that aspect.
