Title: Wheelchair motor dimensions
Post by: wesg on November 16, 2013, 12:20:37 PM
Hey guys, great community, glad I found it!

As part of my plan to work at a robotics company in the future, I'm designing a robot to build when our office machine shop is complete. I'd like to use wheelchair motors, but have so far been unable to find sufficient dimensions to build a 3D part. Obviously there are many different motors available, but I figured with their popularity, someone has dimensioned one already. Right now I'm trying to guess off an eBay photo, but I'm not sure how well that will work.

Thanks!

If you can get the manufacture's part number and then find a good data sheet for that part then you could make the #D model. Else it is best to buy the part and measure it.
