Connecting 58mm Omni Wheel to Motor

Help & Support Robot Parts

Hi,

I recently ordered “58mm Plastic Omni Wheel (compatible with Servos and Lego Mindstorms NXT)”. It comes with two attachment style plugs.

Is there an adapter for connecting these wheels to standard 130 DC motors the smooth thin axle?
Other than Mindstorms, what motors are typically used with these wheels?
What hubs are ordered with these wheels and how are they attached?

Thanks,
Kerry

Hey,

Depending on the diameter of your output shaft, these two hubs are also compatible with these wheels:
*https://www.robotshop.com/en/3mm-aluminum-mounting-hub.html for 3mm diameter shafts
*https://www.robotshop.com/en/5mm-aluminum-mounting-hub.html for 5mm diameter shafts

These are the only compatible hubs we have.

Hope this helps,
