Introduction: Making Robot Hand With Plastic Pipes

About: Mechanical engineer, Entrepreneur, Maker, robotic systems expert and founder of Robimek and RobiBot

The simplest way robots will tell the handmade.Robot hands are usually printed with 3d printers.The cost may be more. In this project, I will discuss the cheapest handmade robots.

Step 1: Materials:

  • Plastic spiral pipe
  • Monofilament wire
  • Silicon
  • Glove

Step 2: Construction Phases - 1

Putting on paper our best to make resizing First, we draw a finger.Out on hand to bring the tubular fingers are cut away from the fingertips to the wrist size. We repeat for the other fingers. where the fingers bend the pipe ticking over, we will stop halfway. Pipes are sticking to each other by placing the silicone appropriately.

Step 3: Construction Phases - 2

Fishing line tied to the end of the wire fingers, we are passing through the tubes. This monofilament wires to the fingers curled reservations, will be opened automatically when released because it is flexible. Finally, we wear gloves handling robot.

Step 4: Installation of Servo Motors

Placing the wrists of the robot plate, servo motors are stabilizes on this plate.We connect each servo wire fishing line attached to a finger. Thus, when the servo motor is pull the finger back.

Step 5: The Sample Code for the Robot Hand Movement:

#include

Servo servo1,servo2,servo3,servo4,servo5;

int pos = 0 ;

void setup()

{

servo1.attach(8);

servo2.attach(9);

servo3.attach(10);

servo4.attach(11);

servo5.attach(12);

}

void loop()

{

for (pos = 180; pos >= 0; pos -= 1)

{

servo1.write(pos);

servo2.write(pos);

servo3.write(pos);

servo4.write(pos);

servo5.write(pos);

delay(15);

}

for (pos = 0; pos <= 180; pos += 1)

{

servo1.write(pos);

servo2.write(pos);

servo3.write(pos);

servo4.write(pos);

servo5.write(pos);

delay(15);

}

}
