Assembly
- Attach sets of 3 linear actuators to 4 star-shaped mounts using 8-32 screws.
- Insert the 12 actuators into the square shaped holes of 2 Plexiglass delta robot holders. (note this will be difficult as the tolerances are small)
- Attach the 1-½” Long spacers between the star-shaped mounts and the lower plexiglass holders in the formation shown below:
- Attach the 3-½” Long spacers between the 2 plexiglass holders.
- Attach the delta links to the linear actuators.
- Attach the Fingertip Clip Holders to the end effector plates of the delta robots and super glue the Fingertips on top as shown below:
- Follow along This Guide to learn how to put the electronics together.
- Use the modified delta shield to produce the PCB for distributing the power to all motors, attach ADC and motor drivers similar to single shield design and short all the VCC and GND pins manually.
- The final result should look like this:
