What has worked? what hasn’t?
the design and 3d printing process as well as PCB design and milling were straightforward without any problems but I had some problems with molding and casting in the soft gripper, the problem was that the second layer doesn't stick on the main finger but I will try to use a new tech to resolve this issue .
What questions need to be resolved?
the big question right now is to know how to make a perfect finger shape that will inflate without any problems in addition I have to know what is the best way to stick the fingers parts together? .
What will happen when?
the most important task that I have to finish in the next few days is to The completion and test the soft gripper after that I will assemble all parts together and start the testing for the whole project.
What have you learned?
- how to design a full project and how to make it functional
- how to select the proper way to fabricate the project body (CNC, 3D printing, laser cutter)
- problem-solving
- Time Management
- knowledge sharing
- how to be more efficient (work smarter not harder)
- how to design and fabricate PCB for a specific projects
