Over the weekend, we completed the final assembly and mechanism of our manual transmission.
When we arrived at lab, we received multiple gears that were printed from the 3D printer. We had to wait an additional 30 minutes for the rest of our project to be printed. Once everything was printed, we decided to piece everything together into the gear box housing that Deepak has made for all manual transmission projects.
When we pieced everything together, we ran into minor problems. When we meshed all gears together, the gears would push against each other which would cause stress against other gears and shafts. We decided to to use very fine sand paper to fix these problems and to reprint just two gears to fix our assembly.
