All configurations of the module use the same shafts
Modules can be swapped between every configuration and mounting style by simply using different plates
Gear Ratios compatible with all Swerve X2 configurations
All Gear Ratios available in Steel and Aluminum versions
Allows for mixing and matching different configuration modules while using the same Gear Ratios
Free speeds range from X1 (13-16 ft/s) to X4 (18-22 ft/s)
Optional aluminum bevel gear is available to save weight
All gears have integrated shafts
Less hardware required for assembly
Modules accept multiple motors: Kraken X60 - NEO - NEO Vortex
Bottom mounting plates are made of 7075-T6 to help with bending
Now 1/4" thick
Wheel height is the same regardless of configuration, so it is possible to mix and match modules on the robot
All modules can be mounted on top or bottom of the drivetrain tubes
Used to increase or decrease ground clearance
#10-32 Tapped holes on Wheel Forks allow for custom wheel guard mounting
3.5” ID X-contact bearing
Fully captured by fork, 88t rotation gear, and bearing retention plate
Simplified wheel removal makes swapping tread easier and faster
4 wheel options available for all modules
Aluminum wheel with black neoprene tread
Molded High Grip
Molded Smooth
Colson Wheel
Motors can be easily replaced without taking apart the modules
Top plates include additional holes on 0.5" hole
Top Plate height is the same on all modules
Sits flush with 2" tall tubing
3 different drive motor locations for drive motors
Centered, Left, and Right
Motors are bolted to an adapter that pilots to the mounting plate and allows for removal without module disassembly
Least number of parts, lightest of the three X2 configurations
Supports Kraken X60 and future smaller brushless motors
Supports a keyed ½” hex shaft for a ½” hex throughbore solution for position sensing of the module
Modules are symmetrical
No left or right hand configuration
Combined motor mounting plate reduces parts and makes assembly easier
Supports Kraken X60 and future smaller brushless motors
Supports a keyed ½” hex shaft for a ½” hex throughbore solution for position sensing of the module
Feature flippable plates
Left and right hand configurations can be made from the exact same parts
No gears extend past top plate and motor mounting plate profiles
Extra bottom support plate added to support motors
Supports 4" OD x 2" wide wheels
3 variants available: Standard, Inverted, and Thin
Corner and Tube Mount versions available for each option
On axis encoder mounting
Aluminum and Steel gears available for all gears
Single bolt removal for wheel swap
Motors easily replaced without module disassembly
Accepts common motors
Less parts than previous versions
No belts in any of the modules
The Zeroing Blocks below will be used to help align the wheel to the module so that a zero can be set in code.
Once you have your Blocks printed, zeroing the module will be a breeze. Simply align the block with the Wheel Fork and ensure the top of the block is flush with the Swerve X2 plate.
This method will set the modules at 45 degrees from straight. This must be accounted for in the code.
Make sure that the flat of the fork is aligned with the Zeroing Block.
All Ratio Kits are sold with steel gears. However, they can be swapped out with aluminum gears to further reduce the weight of each module.
All weights for configurations were calculated without any motors.
Weight calculated using the Aluminum Wheel and Tread.
Corner Mount module weights do not include the weight for either the Top Support Plate or the Bottom Support Plate.
WCP’s newest generation of the swerve drive module, designed from the ground up to utilize the powerful Kraken X60 brushless motor to improve performance and remove complexity. This new design more versatile than our previous modules, and truly makes omnidirectional driving as simple as plug and play.
