SWYFT Ascend FRC Telescoping Elevator V2

Ships Next Day Introducing the SWYFT Ascend FRC Telescoping Elevator V2, the next evolution of our game-changing solution engineered to elevate your robot to new heights. This cutting-edge elevator is even more lightweight and compact, featuring a slider-free design with steel balls for ultimate stability and almost zero wobble. With enhanced strength, reliability, and unparalleled customization options, V2 ensures a perfect fit for your robot's unique needs while delivering superior performance under intense stress. Key Features Customizable Collapsed Length: Adjust the collapsed length from 8" to 47" to perfectly integrate with your robot's design. Extended Reach: Achieve impressive extensions of up to 79" (126" total height), enabling you to reach towering heights. Smooth and Durable Construction: Custom aluminum extrusions with integrated steel balls ensure smooth telescoping action and exceptional durability. Powered Bidirectional Movement: The first stage is driven by a rack and pinion setup with a real 10DP gear profile milled directly into the tube (no more rounded out holes for higher torque and better reliability), while the second stage utilizes a cascading rope and pulley system with new steel rope pulleys to keep the rope centered, all neatly enclosed in the 2" x 1" profile. Ultra-Compact Footprint: Maximize your robot's space with the elevator's slim 2" x 1" profile (excluding top plates). Lightweight Design: Our elevator's exceptionally lightweight design saves significant weight compared to other FRC elevators, giving you more freedom for other components. Comprehensive Kit: Includes all necessary components for 2 stages except for a motor (and its gearbox). Versatile Mounting Options: Securely attach the elevator to your robot using a variety of 10-32 tapped holes and through holes. Powerful Compatibility: Effortlessly drive the elevator with a 1/2" hex axle, featuring an 8mm thick steel 10DP gear with large teeth for higher load capacity and no more rounding of hex shafts. Upgraded Rope System: 1/8" UHMWPE pre-stretched rope rated at 2500 lb average breaking strength (increased from 1000 lb in V1), with 2x rope clamping blocks using 12x 10-32 socket head screws for easier and more reliable clamping, and an inner rope attachment with rounded fillets to reduce rope fraying. Higher Strength Hardware: Includes higher strength socket head screws for the extrusion and a drill adapter for easy assembly. Secure End Attachment Block: Now with 2x screws in shear and 4x screws in pullout, keeping it very secure under intense stress. Configurable Stages: Choose between 1 and 2 stages for your setup (all elevators ship with 2 stages); the end attachment block supports both configurations for flexibility. Improved Cable Management: The first stage includes a "hat" for easy cable routing and organization. Comprehensive Kit Includes all necessary components for 2 stages except for a motor (and its gearbox). Enhance Your Robot's Performance SWYFT Ascend FRC Telescoping Elevator V2 builds on the success of V1 with upgrades for even greater torque, load capacity, and reliability. Dominate the field with a lighter, stronger, and more customizable elevator system.
