Wheels for Dynamixel Servos

Where may I get at least six inch diameter wheels that will easily attach to a Dynamixel servo?
Is there an easy way to get any wheel attached to a Dynamixel servo?

The hub of the wheel should preferably not be plastic.

Also, what parts would you recommend I use if I were to configure a single powered caster assembly comprised of two 6 inch diameter wheels where I’d use two EX-106 Dynamixel servos (maybe coupled together) to power each wheel (one servo per wheel) for traveling along a surface (pitch plane) and one Dynamixel-64 servo to power angular rotation (yaw plane). Would I need any brackets to accomplish this configuration?

I’m a strong programmer, but a weak mechanical engineer, so I need some guidance selecting the mechanical configuration of the dual-wheel powered caster assembly mentioned above.

Thanks,
Sam Q

Hi SamQ,

Welcome to the RobotShop Forum. Unfortunately Robotis only makes one wheel, so to connect anything else, you will need to make custom interfaces. For the powered caster assembly, do you mean design it from scratch? One custom metal L-shaped bracket with proper holes should be enough.

Hope this helps,
