FRC Strain Wave Reducer/ Harmonic Drive
grabcad
I had some free time over the past couple days, so I decided to make a Strain Wave Reducer, more commonly know as a harmonic drive. The design I came up with mates with a Neo, has a 50:1 reduction, and is mostly 3D printed.A Strain Wave Reducer have a couple advantages compared to more traditional reducers like planetary gearboxes, the main one being that they have no backlash. They also tend to be more compact and lighter as well. If you are curious how a Harmonic drive works, I would strongly recommend checking out this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QidXf9pFYo) as it does a far better job explaining it than I could.As always, questions and comments are more than welcome!-Trevor G
