Test assembly of the carrier.
So the MRA049 ring (Magnet for RLS) is press fitted on the output.
Then the output is press fitted on the carrier and then screwed together.
The housing have a NSK 6705 bearing. The output is resting on the OD of the bearing.
A bit overkill. The housing also have room for a NSK 6703 bearing which the carrier is resting on. This is to minimize any type of movement on the output if any extended load is placed on the output.

Then each of the carrier (pc1 / pc2) parts have a internal BR106 bearing which the drive shaft is resting on.
I am still wating for the gears to arrive. :slight_smile:

Prototype ready.
Kitt-D67 is a small robotics actuator based on the RI60 from CubeMars (The Stable Robotic Dynamic System) . The controller is the MD80 from MAB Robotics

It features a planetary gearbox (5.4:1), temperature sensor, dual encoders, one AksIM-2 off-axis encoder from RLS Merilna tehnika d. o. o.

All integrated nicely in a small aluminum housing deigned in Fusion360.
