SimulationX Documentation

  • Josiah with XPI helped us model the current model of the arm in simulationX to get more accurate simulation data on the workspace, torque output, and performance of the arm.

  • Data will help us proceed with actuator redesign, arm path planning, etc.

  • This model can be can be edited and worked on with future arm design iterations

 

Josiah Meeting Notes:

  • Goal of the meeting is to go over intial model of the arm with rigid bodies representing each axis, and the 1D gearbox motor set ups

Billy notes:

  1. PID → FMU → Can use sim and our software to do SIL

  2. Feedback loop

  3. Double click CAD model block to edit parameters

    1. mass, center of mass, fixed intertia

  4.
