If you can’t tell, we’re on a roll with 3D printers and printed projects this month. So far, we’ve covered printers, andsimple functional 3D prints. This week we’re taking a look at some of the awesome complex 3D printed projects on Hackaday.io.Complex...
Not all of the electronic components came out of the box for the robot, the relay for the motors needed some adjustment(the motor controllers could not spin the motors backwards, these SPDT relays switched the polarity), they could not handle the amps...
I've built a rudementary frame from Meccano and a piece of flooring for testing with some of the displays... it looks like crap: Sorry for the phone quality.LED Displays; the lower displays speed, the upper one is altitude in meters. The analouge meter...
After a long time without any news lot of things was done in background and mainly by Balda & Nico which are amazing contributors to HydraFW !New features planned for HydraFW v0.6 release:HydraBus specific: JTAG protocol mode (thanks to Baldanos) Classic...
29.11.2015 – HydraFW v0.6 BetaGeneric:Update of tokenline, now both T_ARG_INT and T_ARG_FLOAT take k, m and g suffixes and apply a decimal factor on both argument types. It is always compatible with old syntax khz, mhz, ghz (only first character is checked).HydraBus...
I got another turbo pumps, this time a complete set, pump and controller. It is an Osaka Vacuum TG2003 rated for 2000l/s at 24,000 rpm. It is mag lev like the other pumps I had been trying to get going but a little more friendly. I plan on keeping an...
I installed the valve today, it was a total mess on the inside. There was a layer of rust coating the inside of the valve body which just should not happen. The entire thing is made from stainless. It must have been from whatever was being pumped in...
Got the pump installed, plumbed in, and running yesterday. It has been running about 30 hours now and is at about 8e-7 torr right now. I thought I had a leak but I cant find a thing with the RGA in leak check mode and a bottle of helium. I think it must...
Roughly 80% of the parts came in today for the build. I will add a parts list to this project soon. I made a few miscalculations, not the least of which was buying too few screws! I'll put in another order this week and hopefully have the frame built...
We are done with designing, just about to order the boards to be manufactured!A few "features" and design choices have been added or altered. We chose to go back the popular Arduino platform, not because MSP430 is hard, but more because the code is already...
Now that there have been a couple events under the belt for this machine: sons birthday party and a carnival, I am looking to make the claw machine more noise immune. The last event showed a random reset of the machine that would cause it to home...
The boards are finally finished. This was a long time coming, but I could machine the pcb's (which I have been wanting to do pcb milling for quite some time, but things did not fall into place until now) the mill have to become operational. The...
If the picture isn't a bit of how I felt when assemlbing these little tricksters than the explanation will. The entire build except for one piece went smoothly. Some parts were no longer being sold so I had to improvise with better newer...
I'm not working on this project, and I am not working of this project for more than the reason of my other project taking precedence. But, I am still doing this project do to the need of this project. I have thought about the feasibility of what I have...
