ACTOBOTICS 37mm Bore Bottom Tapped Clamping Mount
This 37mm clamping mount is a popular option for mounting 37mm diameter spur gear motors. Given the offset shaft of a 37mm diameter spur gear motor, you can rotate the motor within the clamping mount, prior to tightening the pinch bolt, to adjust the location of the motor’s shaft. This is a great option when looking to achieve the proper belt tension, chain tension, or gear mesh within an assembly. On the bottom of the mount, you’ll find two 6-32 holes which are on the 1.5" pattern (measuring 1.061" apart as it’s the side of the pattern).
TECH TIP:
Please Note: The deck height (center of the clamp to the bottom of the part) is different on this part than other bottom tapped clamping mounts in the Actobotics lineup. If you are meshing gears you will want to use a spur gear motor with an offset shaft to adjust the gear mesh.
The Aluminum Clamping Mount is great for applications where the perfect motor alignment is needed. When used in conjunction with a gearmotor that has an offset shaft, you can index the motor by sliding the motor forward/aft in the mount or rotating it within the mount. You can be sure that this mount is not going to budge even in high torque applications. The included clamping screw is a 6-32 x 1/2" zinc-plated socket head screw that uses a 7/64 hex key.
