Metacarpal and Phalanges FDM Prototype

Opened this issue · 0 comments

The Metacarpal and Phalanges file is an early prototype and pretty much just for reference's sake.

  • Likely scrap the idea of having two motors in one housing because the routing from pulley to joint is inefficient and the additional space by having a shorter component would leave more space for CMC joints and allow the same component to be used for the thumb's MCP joint potentially
  • The part is also FDM and a much more optimised design would be possible with SLA
  • Metacarpal should be as narrow as possible (<20mm width)
