s36gong@uwaterloo.ca Not much, will get on tasks this week
  • 3d print shims the clevis pins
  • Finish training

Take measurements? 

  • Diameter of each of the pins
  • measure the diameter of the holes
  • Read the rules
  • Look at pics of the mars lander
  • See what other teams do (Michigan Mars Rover, Cornell Mars Rover, Monash Mars Rover, IMPULS, etc. Just search up "URC SAR 209, 2020, 2021) videos on youtube
  • Assisted with bay cleanup
  • Had meeting on lander test course
  • No updates - not at meeting
Mathieu Harter (Deactivated) 
  • Helped with motor selection
CAD for A3 and A4
Austin Tailon Huang 
  • fixed training
  • finalized new arm parts
  • working on preliminary A1 arm design
  • fix in person arm in Waterloo
  • follow up with Cory on design for A2
  • bring AMT encoders to bay
  • follow up with test course
Jasmine Milan No Updates :/ Had a super busy week, I'll get on that this week
  • Got quote for GAM gearbox, 1200
  • Got accepted to Maxon's YEP program
  • Cory's notes for A2 reviewed, working on implementing changes
  • In person prototype arm belt is fixed
  • finishing A1 and A2 updates

A1 Notes

A2 Notes

A3 Notes

  • Belt tensioner: Slots and linear screws
    Image Added
  • Shaft Stackup
    Image AddedImage Added
  • Current design challenges:
    • High deflection on linkage - need to stiffen

A4 Notes

  • A4 gearbox in line with motor
    Image AddedImage Added
  • RLS encoder inside bracket
  • Current design challenges:
    • Need to figure out mounting with A5/A6
    • Need to make sure L bracket for A4 win't deform or fail


A5/A6 Notes

Image Added

  • A5/A6 motors are vertical so that the belt transmission is symmetrical on both sides
  • Current differential is chonky - look to making it smaller
  • broadcoms still need to be integrated
  • Current design challenges:
    • motor mounting flanges will need more support to prevent deflection
    • look to reducing width of entire setup
