Amazing video! What is the model of the CNC lathe you’re using there? And could I ask which CAD software you’re using? Final question do you offer a service to create these materials based on a spec? Thank you!
Awesome. Question: did you consider interweaving the knuckle contact joints which would strengthen the joint and avoid lateral movement? Maybe at the cost of increased friction.
Fascinating! Thank you. Also, really enjoyed the 3D printed parts. Sure you could have animated it once you had the images but this is way better in being memorable and intuitive
I get why ball bearings arent suited in this case, but whats with bushings? When i need small joints in 3D printed projects i usually drill a hole to size and use a polished rod of fitting diameter in it. Many plastics used in 3D printing are great (or good enough) bushing materials that these joints last 1000s of cycles. Sometimes 1 drop of oil is required as lubrication, but i have never bothered to re-oil and everythings still running great
Hey! I didn't see it mentioned anywhere (or I just missed it and am dumb), but is there any way one could find the models for your design of the joint? I am designing a mechanical crow and what you have made there could be interesting for a leg design.
Would be interesting to see what you could do by removing the pinhole to read the surface regardless of height & using that at a coarse resolution to make a map of absorption/reflection, then use that map to modulate your confocal readings.
This is one aspect of science which is hard to imagine could be achieved. The other is understanding the universe and its infinite vastness and what is outside of it.
It's mind blowing what humans have created and are capable of!!!! Now just imagine if the education system was better and actually provided the nurturing environment most people need to actually learn useful knowledge and skills geared towards energy production etc...
Appreciate the benefits over a ball bearing but what are the benefits over a simple hinge pin? Just the ability to change the geometry through the range of motion right?
Ive watched so many "how CPUs" are made, and I understand the process, but I still dont understand how it was invented in the first place. The level of detail is completely outrageous.
