Telescopic Arm

- The telescopic arm is extended and retracted using the teeth of a steel 22 tooth sprocket and linear row of 3/16” holes down the center of the inner tube
- It is run by a 775 Brushed motor geared 20:1
- The wrist is spun using a CIM motor geared down to about a 2:1 ratio using a 22 tooth gear and a 48 tooth gear
- The claw is piston actuated allowing it open and close quickly and firmly
- The tips of the claw are cut out of urethane material, this is to absorb the force if it were to run into a field element or another robot
