The finger now flexes with the gear turn but not the finger tip. I don't know if that is because of a design problem or because I put something together wrong.morrisfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07718391519748382064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242832439074491638.post-51399428136442150392013-07-17T15:09:40.667-07:002013-07-17T15:09:40.667-07:00Oh okay.

Well I know I should give a little more space to make sure others don't encounter this problem.<br />Let me know if it now function and if you can actuate the whole finger just by turning the gear, parts should move easily by hand other wise the servo will be forcing.<br />I have posted again your blog on the forum for others to follow your work.<br />http://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/inmoov/u_ot-ZR5-ckAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06964775091618957956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242832439074491638.post-29672442656938578342013-07-17T14:48:37.672-07:002013-07-17T14:48:37.672-07:00I had already removed some plastic from the servo ...I had already removed some plastic from the servo holder when I saw this message so I won't know if taking some material off the first tooth would have worked.morrisfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07718391519748382064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242832439074491638.post-45574344306720655202013-07-17T10:18:24.733-07:002013-07-17T10:18:24.733-07:00I just checked that collision/interference you men...I just checked that collision/interference you mention. And it should pass normally, now that being said, the parts are very close from each other, and I guess the first tooth of the gear had a bit of overhang during printing, that might cause the collision. Could you cut a bit with a knife the first tooth to see if you still get the problem. Let me know, I could modify a bit the frame of the servo holder or reduce a bit the length of the teeth.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06964775091618957956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242832439074491638.post-90245206823450866362013-07-17T04:21:43.099-07:002013-07-17T04:21:43.099-07:00That definitely works better.

I got the finger assembled but it still won't move due to the interference between the gear teeth and the frame of the servo holder as in picture # 4 above. I can move the other parts but not the first piece.morrisfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07718391519748382064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242832439074491638.post-43917730148181007932013-07-17T01:53:08.713-07:002013-07-17T01:53:08.713-07:00Hi again, okay I posted a new pic in Thingiverse. ...Hi again, okay I posted a new pic in Thingiverse. I understood why you got it wrongly mounted. My pics confused you, the second actuator looked as if it was the first actuator.<br />Hope this helps.

So what you need to do, is mount the actuator the other way around. Instead of having the head of it going up it should be going down.<br />I will post a new assembly pic on Thingiverse.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06964775091618957956noreply@blogger.com
