Teams Involved: Science and Mechanical
- Nearing end of August, science will have design requirements for mechanical
- Looking at it in the CAD
- Belts not a loop, a line, so they'd connect with tensioning that didn't work and got caught on things
- One of the 3D printed parts was so small nothing would get in
- Particle size is a big problem
- Geneva drive issues
- Shaking from Geneva mechanism was enough to mix things up
- Removing Geneva might mean a new method to mix things up.
- Maybe a Scara arm?
- Removing Geneva might mean a new method to mix things up.
- Shaking from Geneva mechanism was enough to mix things up
- Add a new camera
- Teams had ways to isolate what was touching different samples, different shovels, etc
- Take a look at how to reduce cross contamination
- Figure out how the shovel/dirt collection/auger work
- Ask Mathieu for timeline, when this should be finished
- Do we have the resources for a design change
