Product Overview
Compliant wheels are not intended for moving robots, but moving objects. Compliant wheels give way to allow rigid objects to be manipulated easily. A line of multiple wheels on a driven hex axle creates a very effective roller that ignores variations in the objects being driven. This makes for high-performance intakes and internal conveyors.
Different durometer ratings give each wheel unique characteristics. Green wheels (35A durometer) are the softest and most compliant around objects, while orange (40A), maroon (45A), blue (50A), and black (60A) wheels are increasingly firm. The increased firmness also allows the latter wheels to carry a higher RPM rating. Check out the downloads tab for a chart showing wheels and their maximum RPM.

Compliant wheels
The green ones are pretty soft but work as drive wheels even if they are not intended for it. The black ones are pretty hard. I have not had the ones in between but wish I bought them instead of the black ones.

compliant wheels
we recently purchased both the 3" and the 4" compliant wheels. while we are happy with the wheels, it would have been better to have the hole pattern option for actobotics on all the wheels
-
Easy to install and hard to break.
In my 4 years in robotics, I have yet to see a broken compliant wheel. These things can stand up against lots of abuse. I would like to see an even softer wheel then the ones currently available.
-
Easy to use and well-built. Very grippy surface.

4" Compliant Wheels
Thank you for carrying this product. The product arrived in a timely manner. There is so much negativity in this world, I want you to hear the positive. I hope this brightens your day a little! I, as always, appreciate all of you at AndyMark. It takes a well oiled machine to be able to do what you guys do on a daily basis and who you do it for. Here is a shout out to Uncle JerrBear, Brett and Bravo! Mr. Andy Baker, thank you for all the "Lunches with Andy". They are not only resourceful, but also a comical relief at times when the stress of build season is getting to you. You are all very much appreciated for all of your hard work and everything extra you provide for us! PLEASE know this! Please pass this onto Brett, "Proud of me!" Heather P Team 6055

"These wheels are awesome. It is great to have the color coded compliance (squishiness) levels to play with to optimize game piece handling"

Compliant Wheels
These are great. They work very well as a flexible, high-grip intake method.
