6 Axis Arm
November 2024 – January 2025
Cresskill, NJ
Overview
Designed a six-axis robotic arm around available stepper motors, creating all individual parts and completing the full SolidWorks assembly
Selected and procured electronics components, including a Teensy 4.1 microcontroller and motor controllers, for the planned control system
Planned for fabrication and assembly, documenting designs for future build despite 3D printer limitations and budget constraints
Identified motor torque limitations and conceptualized a cycloidal drive to enhance mechanical performance
