delayed

Yes

8mm Vortex Shaft Modification

 

 

 

Off the shelf 8mm vortex shafts that connect Neo Vortex motors to Versa planetary gearboxes on the drivetrain need to be modified for compatibility/

@Samuel Fashola

Completed

No

Drivetrain reassembly and revision

Drivetrain revision 1.1

  • Fixed right rocker arm

  • ODrive motors and wiring

 

 

Drive train needs to be taken apart and put back together with all the above improvements

Unassigned

No

Arm Axis 2 weight reductions + torsion spring relief proposal

The current arm is being evaluated to be suitable for software testing.
It has been calculated and tested that Axis 2’s expected moments are above actuator torque ratings. A detailed process proposal is required to justify the modifications that will be made to the arm

@Yu-Ming He, @Saheed Quadri

On track

Yes

Axis 2 Redesign

Axis 2 will be redesigned to meet selected improvements from design proposal

 

@Yu-Ming He

On track

Yes

Arm Weight Reductions

Weight reduction changes might be made to the arm to obtain a better safety factor

 

@Saheed Quadri

oN TRACK

Yes

Odrive Motor RCA

Testing on the odrive motors to identify if they are shorted due to high voltage input. Resistance of phases need to be measured and motors need to be tested and observed.

 

@Yu-Ming He @Yuchen Lin

COMPLETED

Yes

Belt Characterization

Characterize the stiffness and damping of the belt

 

 

Canceled

 

A2 Test Rig Limit Switch Mounting

Design a small 3D printed mount to install 2 limit switches (0 and 90 degrees) for A2 actuator testing

Oct 4th

@Alanna Rudolph

COMPLETED

Yes

Wheel Design

Characterize current wheels and redesign them for better grip and turning capabilities
