These slide onto the (standard) weel of a Robomow RS series robotic lawnmower and increase the grip of the robot, in case you find that your original wheels don't provide enough grip. You need to print the object 3 times per wheel, which required about 74 grams of PLA each in my case. Supports are not needed for this print. The photos show the 3 pieces placed together as they would be on the wheel. Unlike Robomow's robogrips, these are for the default wheels and not for the power wheels.

It should slide onto the wheels with ease, although if your weels are brand new, the fit might be a bit tighter, because I modeled it on my wheels, which are showing some signs of wear. I attached each piece to the inside of the wheel with one screw through the center hole.

Upon request I also added the full wheel in one piece, but you may have difficulty putting it on your wheel. It also requires you to take the wheel off the robot to be able to put it on.

If anybody is interested, I'll add the one-piece version which can be printed on a printer with a larger print volume, although I need to check if it's still easy enough to slide it onto the wheel if it's one piece. Also, as it is now, you don't need to remove the wheel to fit this object.
