Drive Corner Module

Drive Corner

The The Plummer Industries Drive Corner is our swerve module product line designed for teams competing in FRC. Robust engineering practices make the Drive Corner one of the lightest, most compact, and most durable swerve modules available. The Drive corner is easy to maintain during competitions and allows for fast match turn-arounds. Super-efficient drivetrain creates speed and agility with a low center of gravity.
