Tracked Drive (Pair)
Here's a fast and easy way to build a super-strong tracked robot!
Introducing our new tracked drive units--each one includes an already-modified servo motor (56 oz-in torque @ 6vdc), drive sprockets, sturdy plastic articulated tracks, and mounting hardware. Just add a metal, plastic, or wood base...or choose one of ours!
You get two tracked drive units, which you can then mount to a base. Mounting is easy with just four screws per drive unit. Each drive unit measures 6" x 2" x 2 3/8". The tracks are 10" in overall length, with a ground contact area of 4" by 7/8". Each drive unit weighs 4.8 ounces.
Mount the drive units to any
base using only ordinary hardware.
The track segments have a smooth finish, and provide good mobility over carpet and most other indoor surfaces. We include lengths of rubberized tape, which you can apply to the track segments for operation over Formica and other slippery surfaces. The track segments are made of nearly unbreakable plastic, and are articulated with a strong stainless steel pin.
The track is composed of plastic
segments and stainless steel pins.
You can use the tracked drive units with any base that measures at least 4" x 6". Design your own using metal, plastic, wood, or other material.
Or if you prefer, you can use our optional base decks, which have predrilled holes to match the drive units. The decks are made of expanded rigid PVC; they measure 5" x 7" and weigh 2.8 ounces. They can be stacked to provide two levels. Riser hardware is included with the second level deck.
