Title: Redalert's CAD BattleBots and BattlBbot Tech
Post by: Redalert on November 15, 2018, 12:26:29 PM
I never posted my CAD designs before, so I thought I'd post a few.

My CAD designer doesn't have a screenshot function, so I just have zip files.
The first is a drum spinner...

...and this one's a hammer.
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
both designs have moving parts such as spinning wheels and working weapons!

Press the PrtSc button, that takes a screenshot, paste it into Paint or something, then save it and upload it.

if you have ms paint you should just be able to press ctrl-v after pressing PrtSc

Alternatively, if you have snipping tool, you can just open the program where you make your CAD, load it, and then snip the screen to include the CAD, before saving that and showing us all the pic

Drum spinner. 3d printable, and has working wheels and drum, allowing you to spin them by hand.

Ran out of kb. So, double post. Here's a Spinnerpro brushless motor, rated for 12-24v.
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]    [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
Spinnerpro motors have 3 terminals.
> red- positive
> black- negative
> yellow- ground.

Here's a custom 1-100 ratio gearbox. The shell's made of titanium, and the gears are made of hardened aluminum.
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]    [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
included artios- 1-8, 8-100
(first- 1-8, second- 1-12.5: 100/8=12.5)

Spinnerpro 18-36 v speed motor designed for spinners. has 2/3 the torque of the normal Spinnerpro motor, but 4/2 the speed. Marked in read to indicate that it's a speed motor.
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
dual-speed gearbox designed for HS the main shaft is longer to prevent warping.
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  

Now, Micromotors are half the size of the original Spinnerpro 24v, and are the size of electric scooter motors.
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]    [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
Micromotors run on 6-18 v.

Spinnerpro Quad. Requires 96 volts because motors are wired in series. Found only in bots with mass amounts of battery power.
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  

Spinnerpro right angle motor, designed for lightweights. Fast, but not powerful.  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  

Spinnerpro E.E.M. (Energy Efficient Motor) also known as ECO. It gets its name from its ability to work on little power, and its ability to operate heavy bots. It has long magnets and a long armature, which make it turn slowly, and allow it to rotate mechanisms with great effort. (rule of third-class levers.)
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
E.E.M.s do not need a ground, and run on any voltage from 6 volts (very slow) to 24 volts (regular speed) E.E.M.s are marked in green.

E.E.M. MAX gearbox with Aluminum worm gear. Designed to operate slow parts on a bot- 1-1000 ratio
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  

E.E.M. MAG gearbox. Nicknamed "the crusher," this steel gearbox can handle over 1000 pounds of force, and is ideal for clampers. It has a gear ratio of 1-10000 (1-1000, 1000-10000)
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
actual, fully-assembled gearbox on the right, gear configuration shown left.

Updated the basic Spinnerpro motor. It takes the efficiency of the E.E.M. and combines it with the balance of speed and power of the original. Doesn't overheat due to special grease in the motor that reduces friction. (friction generates heat). Runs on 12-24 v.
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  

I also made more motors specifically for weapons.
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
(left) the Spinnerpro D. motor (drum) designed to rotate drum spinners at insane speeds. Spins at a rate anywhere from 6,000 to 10,000 RPM
(center) the Spinnerpro low rotation motor, specified for Wandering Spinners, due to the sheer strength of the motor. Mainly used with a low reduction gearbox. Spins at a rate anywhere from 500 to 2000 RPM.
(right) the standard speed motor. Keeps the same speed, but uses the same key concepts as the normal rfined Spinnerpro brushless motor. Spins anywhere from 2,000 to 8,000 RPM.

Spinnerpro low power motor (left) and micromotor (right) for LW and BW bots. Marked in neon yellow.
  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  
Low power motor runs on 6-18v while micromotor runs on 6-9v.

I can't make the toruses on the majority of these wheels any rounder. They just suggest tires.

Batteries, lol.

  [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]  

Magdum (another brand I made up) produces rechargeable batteries designed for robot combat.

Magdum's ECO and MicroBurst battlepacks are basically small cellular batteries wrapped in tough bendable metal.

The ECO battery is the efficient battery you need for small drive trains. Wired in parallel, this battery has 4.5v cells, each with 10amp. hours wired together. The voltage stays the same, but the longevity is multiplied by 5- 50 amp. hours at 4.5v.
ECOs are commonly used in large numbers due to their low voltage.

The MicroBurst is the exact opposite. It uses the same 4.5v cells, but the voltage is multiplied instead of the amp hours because it's wired in series. These batteries produce anywhere from 6- 28v- 10 amp. hours at 27.5v.

The Magdum 6v battery (the tall one) is basically cutting a Magdum 12v in half. It's a solid SLA battery, coated in light, non-conductive aluminum.

The Magdum 12v battery is the best choice for combat robots. It has the same longevity and voltage as 2 Magdum 6v batteries, but weighs 3/4 the weight of 2 Magdum 6v batteries. Uses SLA. (Sealed Lead Acid)

Here's all the components I've made so far...

I posted a download so you guys can try out the parts for yourself.

Here's a drum. To use it, 3d print it, and hollow out the center to the desired area of that of your axle.

Sounds good.
...but first, I need to make some real-life replicas of parts such as motors and batteries.
All these replicas will be scaled by 10x.

Yes, and these motors are "tests." When you make the chassis to your bot, you use these tests, and then delete them before you 3d print the chassis. Then, you replace them with original, real ampflow motors, and voila! you have a bot!

Post by: Redalert on April 25, 2019, 09:10:51 AM
I'm getting started on the robot.
Since the motor gearboxes are the only things that need extra support, I guess you can just screw in the batteries in control boards.
Because of this, I don't think there's any point in making cad designs of these individually.
