Peel Gear Box

This section will guide the reader through the process of installing 2x peel-gear prints into peel-gear-frame to create peel-gear-box in preparation for its use in final assembly.

Materials Needed

  • peel-gear-frame
  • 2x peel-gear per frame
  • 2.0mm screwdriver
  • 2x M3x14mm-flat-head per frame

Install 2x peel-gear into peel-gear-frame

  • Pop 2x peel-gear into the peel-gear-frame, aligning the bumps in the frame to the divots in the gears

Screwing in M3x14mm-flat-head screws

  • Use a 2.0mm screwdriver or the torque driver at desk to place and screw 2x M3x14mm-flat-head in peel-gear-frame.

When using the torque driver, make sure that it is set to 2.

  • Tighten screws as much as possible without feeling much resistance when turning the gears.

The tightened screws should not have added much (or any) resistance when spinning a peel-gear by hand

  • Loosen the screws a little bit if you observe high friction in the peel-gear-box

TO DO: Add a QC Check that measures the torque required to spin an assembled peel-gear-box to ensure it's within a specified range

Your completed peel-gear-box should match the image shown below
