As an (admittedly somewhat newly certified) CNC machinist, I would surmise the axes would be called A, B and C, if you follow the right-hand rule of axes. A is the axis rotating around X, B is the one rotating around Y, C is the one rotating around Z. But in my own (far less sophisticated!) robot project for a cosplay I'm making, I also just use pitch and yaw. (roll is not needed - see, not as sophisticated!) Great work! Will investigate your channel further, that hand might be very helpful for aforementioned project!
I started a job running cnc lathe,are there any books you would recommend to help learn more about them,I've run a handful of them before,just loading and unloading,
@@tommychiletti8506 My books were in German, so not sure how helpful that would be to you :) However, I can recommend several TH-cam channels: Blondihacks has a good series on very basics (no CNC though), RotarySMP is currently restoring a CNC machine, ThisOldTony does all kinds of interesting and informative videos on all kinds of machining topics, etc.
Last year I worked for a company manufacturing laser scanners for the automotive industry. They had an army of Kuka robots... I told them... some years before I would have stolen one or two of the KUKA... but in the meantime I realized... I have absolutely no use-case at home for such a robot. So I just helped them to unify their laser interfaces... anyway. Your video is very interesting and well executed. Thumbs up!
“The hand” is giving me some Adam’s Family “Thing” vibes. Don’t be surprised if you wake up and the Rubiks cube is solved. Probably best to store the hand away from any internet connected computer keyboard.
Cool Project! Maybe the rigidity/fluidity of the movements could be improved with a much larger planetary gearbox design. While a small one may work with machined parts, 3D printing should be better suited to a larger form factor gearbox where the effect of small deviations from printing can be minimised. More torque could also mean smoother time lapses.
What softwaretool are you using to control the „robot“? I am curios because I get that you can use G code to programm it, but how did you tell tell the programm what specific configuration (relations between your axis, distances etc) you have ? Would be nice if you could give me a tip on this one.
does the noise come mainly from drivers or from stepper motors itself? I want to build another project using stepper motors but silent operaton is crucial
Hi, i have some issues with dimensions. You have several model types (72_1 NEMA17 Closed Loop,72_1 NEMA17 Gearbox,Servo_Motor_Planet_Gear) and different shopping list in your videos). The harware list above works for 72_1 NEMA17 Closed Loop ?
Great series of videos! In case you're interested, I thought (based on a tiny amount of Homeworld modding experience a long time ago) that it was azimuth (yaw) and elevation (pitch) with Google suggesting that the third might be tilt (roll). It looks like the vertical component might also be called inclination (see: Wikipedia "Indirect fire")
I was considering on starting with a 5 axis manipulator but this might be more reasonable

just btw, if you ever decide to scale this up, there are a lot of motors that have built in encoders and position control hardware
Watching and at the end went... wait? Thats Cincy... lol Filmed at Bellevue Hill Park?

Is spinning steppers motor that fast really optimal? Steppers have the highest torque at slow speeds.

Awesome work.
Love the videos, are you local to cinci ??
Well done! Bravo! (from Italy)
Would TMC drivers cut down on the motor whining? 😎👍👍
yes
can i use this system as r/c servo?
That looks like a turret with CNC'd parts.
Could this handle being used as a Fourth (or i guess 4,5, and 6th?) Axis on the CNC Router, or does it lack the rigidity?
I thought about this as well. It would probably work for machining something like foam but I don’t think it has the rigidity for anything else

Nice telescope mount.
My thought also.
What is that big bearing you using? I did not found out in links in the description? Thanks!
look up "Lazy Susan" bearing
Is the software open source?
That's Cincinnati:)
Great series of videos!

Nice video!
Very nice!
Cool, but that not really smooth you need some change for it!
very cool.
I don't get it, "SUBSORBS" doesn't mean anything. /s
👌👌👌
Well, you mixed metric and imperial so my only option is to hate everything about you. This is the (machinist) way.
Cincinnati I'm across the river

Please stop to waste your creativity. We do not need more war machines.
so much talent but zero practical use of all those ideas...
