Product Overview:
As of Summer 2016, ready for the 2017 FRC build season the Swerve and Steer module has had a number of improvements. The absolute encoder, am-3308 now has mounting locations to give a 1:1 gear ratio to the module via the 40 tooth encoder gear, this allows for easier software control. Additionally the 12 tooth CIM pinion/drive shaft now has a wider slot to allow for a 2mm key to lock the shaft to the motor.

The Swerve and Steer module is an all-in-one swerve gearbox AND steering module. The wheel propulsion is powered by a CIM Motor, while the steering torque is managed by a PG71 gearmotor. Both of these motors are mounted to a main motor plate, which can easily be mounted to extrusion frame or other structure.

The PG71 has an encoder on the back side of the 775 motor, which can help keep track of the steering location. In order to use this method of closed-loop encoder tracking, use a 3/16" allen wrench to ensure that the motor plate, bearing plate, and gear plate are all aligned before operation. Alternatively, there is a location to mount an absolute encoder (this absolute is not included).

Both motors are included in the low price. This module is shipped fully assembled.
