Power window motor (Product Code : RB-Cyt-176) coupling removal

Help & Support Robot Parts

Hey everyone, new here-

I want to purchase the power window motor (Product Code : RB-Cyt-176) but want to know if I can remove the coupling included. Also, what the hub looks like after removal of this coupling. I have the same motor purchased from Parallax which has a 10mmx10mm square hub, but Parallax won’t sell me a single motor and I want to make sure this will be compatible with my current system.

Any info or help is much appreciated. Thanks -Matt

Upon physical inspection, although it looks like there’s a hub, it’s actually integrated (or at least a very tight press fit) into the shaft. Unfortunately trying to physically remove it (no set screw, lock collar or anything) seems like it will break the motor. As such, you’re likely stuck with the three hole mounting pattern.

Thanks for the response. I appreciate you taking a look for me.
