Robotic Arm

ROS-controlled 3D printed robotic arm using Nema 34s and custom-designed and manufactured Helical gearboxes to provide a compact 16:1 reduction. Using inverse kinematics to calculate possible positions

All joint Motors are reduced using a custom 3D printed Helical gearbox. Allowing for a compact 16:1 reduction

 

SCB and Arduino

A Raspberry Pi is used to run ROS and calculate position and run simulations while the Arduino handles motor control, actual positioning, and acceleration

Custom Gearbox

The gearbox can be scaled to fit on stepper motors ranging from nema17s to nema34s. Though as the scale increases, the material must shift to fit the required load.
