description

VEX Gearbox is a custom 3D-printed gearbox designed for competitive robotics drive systems. The design explores gear ratio selection, compact packaging, and printed part constraints inside a VEX-compatible mechanism.

The goal was to build a drivetrain component that could be modified for different speed or torque requirements while staying practical for student manufacturing and assembly.
