Version 2:    • 3D Printed Cycloidal Drive V2 - Much ...  

I thought it was time I did some testing for Cycloidal Drive Reducers for robotics, in particular my Robot Dogs. Belt drives have worked ok for me up to now, but I'd like to get a higher reduction in a smaller space. I'm trying to make something that is 3D printable and also reliable enough to withstand the dog stamping on the ground.

XROBOTS

Former toy designer, current YouTube maker and general robotics, electrical and mechanical engineer, I’m a fan of doing it yourself and innovation by trial and error. My channel is where I share some of my useful and not-so-useful inventions, designs and maker advice. Iron Man is my go-to cosplay, and 3D printing can solve most issues - broken bolts, missing parts, world hunger, you name it.

XRobots is the community around my content where you can get in touch, share tips and advice, and more build FAQs, schematics and designs are also available.
