Disclaimer

THIS DESIGN HAS NOT BEEN TESTED IN COMPETITION. It is our intent to use this design in the 2025 season and then revise any parts that need improvements and release an updated revision after competition. It has been driven during build season meetings and we did not have any failures.
 

Inspiration for 3D Printed Swerve

After the 2024 FRC season, our team decided that we wanted to implement swerve drive for the 2025 FRC season. Due to our team's budget and the price of COTS swerve modules, we attempted to find a lower cost solution. One of our students came across a Chief Delphi post from FRC Team 3737, Roto Raptors. 

This swerve is a modified version of FRC Team 3737's 3D printed swerve design. We do not claim credit for creating this design, we simply adjusted what Team 3737 created to fit our needs.

 

3038's 3D Printed Swerve, Snow Drift

We modified FRC Team 3737, Roto Raptors, design to fit our design constraints. Our main goal was to adjust the mounting hole pattern to accommodate REV MaxTubing and make assembly easier. We also wanted to recreate most models in Fusion 360 in order to have feature history so changes would be easier in the future.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

Revision A (3/26/25)

  1. Changed the NEO550 guard to show the gear ratio more clearly.
  2. Added Spark Max Data Port Breakout Board (REV PN REV-11-1278) instead of connector.
  3. Changed the Spark Max standoffs to accommodate a Kraken motor instead of NEO.
  4. Changed housing and lid to be 1/16" smaller per Derek Finch's (from FRC Team 3737) suggestion to prevent shock loads from being transmitted through the bumpers.
  5. Miscellaneous CAD fixes and changes.
  6. Updated instructions. Added images of assembly from CAD and included additional sections for Component Preparation, Bill of Materials, Drawings, etc.

Preliminary Release (1/3/25)

  1. Changed housing to accommodate a ½" bolt spacing (for REV MAXTube)
  2. Added part numbers to parts if possible to help with assembly and match 3038 design standards.
  3. Changed housing lid to use #10-32 threaded inserts.
  4. Standardized most hardware.
