FRC Climbing Mechanism Drive System - Design, Fabrication & Testing

Report
Designed and built the drive system for an FRC competition robot climbing mechanism, taking the design from concept through CAD, analysis, CNC machining, assembly, and testing. The system integrates a Kraken X60 motor, belt-driven pulley, custom bearing block, steel Z-rod actuator, and structural components. I focused on compact packaging, alignment, strength, and manufacturability while iterating designs based on physical testing.
