FTC Guided Experience: ACTUATORS

Let’s Get Moving: Choosing between actuators can be a difficult process. Without applying physics and math, you may be left wondering how to make the choice between a HD Hex Motor, a Core Hex Motor, and a Smart Robot Servo. Here are some general guidelines for where REV actuators are best utilized.

HD HEX MOTOR

ftc-guided-experience-actuators-1.png

The HD Hex Motor is the most powerful legal motor in FTC. When paired with the UltraPlanetary Gearbox, it gives designers control over their end gear ratio. Users can configure a single-stage planetary using one of three different reduction cartridges, build multi-stage gearboxes through stacking individual cartridges together, and choose two different ways for transferring power.

 

USES: Drivetrains, Elevators, and Arms

 

CORE HEX MOTOR

The Core Hex Motor features a 90° orientation and a female output shaft for maximum flexibility and ease of use. Insert any standard REV 5mm hex shafts into or through the Core Hex motor to create custom length motor output shafts. The Core Hex motor has a built in magnetic quadrature encoder which is compatible with 5V or 3.3V logic level devices including the Control Hub.

 

USES: Lighter Duty Arms and Intakes

 

SMART ROBOT SERVO

The Smart Robot Servo (SRS) is a configurable metal-geared servo that takes the guesswork out of aligning and adjusting servo based mechanisms. One SRS can be used as a standard angular servo, a custom angular servo, and a continuous rotation servo by simply changing its settings utilizing the SRS Programmer.

USES: Lighter Duty Intakes, Switches, and Latches
