One of the things I learned at this weekend's meetup is the importance of maintenance and lubrication for the Meccanum wheels. It seems like it is super useful to take them apart, clean and relubricate with some frequency. The robot is a lot quieter when you do this!
Any thoughts on the best lubricant to use? The tube that comes with it is labelled "lithium grease". Having done a bit of research, it seems that lithium is actually best for metal on metal. I've used a lot of Super Lube (PTFE based) with plastic parts. The manufacturer claims that it is very compatible with ABS.
Any opinions from the group?
