Features
- 75 different types of plastic gears
- Ideally suited for robotics and smart car projects
What it is for
They are perfect for creating robot rovers with automatic transmissions. Mount these gears on the main motor and add position sensors to manage the shift. Usable in combination with Arduino or ESP to control the device’s movements.
Tutorial: How to Use Plastic Motor Gears for Change
These plastic gears are ideal for makers creating robots, drones, or rovers with mechanical transmissions. They are perfect for anyone who wants to increase the precision and efficiency of their projects.
What you need
- DC Motors
- Washers
- Lubricating oil (optional)
- Assembly kit
Steps
- Check the motor measurements to choose the most suitable gear.
- Install the first gear on the motor using a washer.
- If necessary, add lubricant to all contact points to reduce noise and improve longevity.
- Connect the next gear to the first one using a washer.
- Continue connecting gears until you achieve the desired ratio.
- Check that all connections are secure and without play.
- Test the mechanics of the gearbox to ensure it works correctly.
- If necessary, adjust the gears to improve efficiency.
Mini project
Build an automatic transmission robot rover: mount these gears on the main motor and add position sensors to manage the transmission.
Common mistakes
- Do not use washers that are too narrow or too wide.
- Do not lubricate the gears correctly.
- Choose an inappropriate ratio for the project requirements.
- Mount the gears without first checking the motor measurements.
Recommended accessories
- DC Motor 12V
- Nuts and bolts kit
- Position sensors
- Lubricating oil for mechanics
