made the Y axis bracket on the C-Beam, later on turned out i didn't have any M6 80mm bolts so we hastily cut it out of 1/8" acrylic. I also forgot to take off the "leave stock" option, but otherwise the holes it cut were the right size and decently round,...
After several months in mothballs I am finally getting back to work on the router. We are currently testing the Y Axis. Below is a video of the gantry moving and a closeup of the encoder and motor.
I am now focused on simplifyng the design of the printer.I have moved from a Delta Design to a Cartesian Design. I am using the motion of the conveyor belt as the y axis. This design change reduces the number of motors needed for the mechanism.[Figure...
In this chapter I will show you the main features of Raspberry Pi 3B+, Qwiic pHAT module and AS7262 sensor. Also we learn how to setup the Raspberry Pi and how to detect the peripheral of the sensor. Raspberry Pi 3B+ The Raspberry Pi 3 B+ provides you...
*Todo el Modelado en 3D y los planos se Realizaron en Autodesk Inventor 2020 Concepto inicial del Hexapodo: Habiendo establecido que desabamos hacer un hexapodo basado en un insecto palo, procedimos a buscar cosas que se hayan hecho antes que nos podrian...
So today was pretty much a day of reading, experimenting, failure, more reading, experimenting failure, in fact this last statement could be put into a while statement for when c=0, c==20, c++ to say the least. But with each failure...
So I've managed to rig up an experiment with my little leg, where I use two potentiometers mapped to x and y coordinate ranges to direct the foot location. It never worked perfectly, but did display some "workingness". I noticed that when changing one...
With some adjustments to the mirror and holographic grating, I have a much cleaner and higher signal to noise ratio than I was receiving before so here are the results for my absorption spectra of Eosin y in water: This is the reference data from Leica...
The second prototype is ready. I still have only a vague idea how to mount OLED display and joysticks. At the moment they are fastened with brass M3 screws.I have also made small notches on the back side so that potentiometers and switches won't rotate.I...
For the Y axis mounting for the ballscrew, I decided to use a FK15 standard flanged ballscrew mount.I chose to drill 6 M5 holes (to tap to M6) in the front of the mill casting to support an aluminium plate with an FK15 cutout (to make later!)Because...
So the project has progressed a bit again. The side plates are in the making and almost finished today, just some cleaning, sanding and finishing up to do. Secondly i finished the render of the CAD model that shows the folding mechanism. Note: Due...
One of the scales arrived broken, so it is useful to use for checking fit without worrying too much about cleaning.Mounting the scale should be straightforward now. I need a 2mm spacer between the table and the scale, and a cover. This could all be the...
Lions remember very little about C64 development. load "$",8 loads a directory listing into the program space. PRG files are programs. SEQ files are data. Assembly language programs tended to be stored in SEQ files. There...
Hi everyone!If you were following this project throughout the Hackaday Prize, and maybe before that with Fab Academy, you might have noticed that there were not so many updates once September rolled around. Read on for the details!---------- more ----------Back...
