This week I worked on the rest of the timing belt assembly for the Y-axis, and the full chassis frame. I added features such as the camera mount, the lights for a stable lighting condition, and the compartments for the sorted resistors. I have also begun to integrate the Z components that Claire has been working on. Here is the progress I’ve made so far:

Since I’ve had a lot of time to work on capstone during this quarantine, we’ve made significant progress and I am currently on track of our Gantt chart – the start on integration even places us ahead of schedule. Once Claire finishes working on the gripper and Z components, I will integrate it to my components and we should have completed the simulation of our original robotics system.

Once I finish integrating, I will start exploring what analysis tools Fusion360 has to offer so we can use them as basis for our testing. Hopefully, I can begin the analysis portion next week.
