I have finalized the laser cutting files for our pill box. The design went through many iterations as I had to balance several constraints, including pill size, number of pills, and width of the pill box. Mapping out the dimensions was also time-consuming. I have included a PDF version of one of the more complex pieces COMPARTMENT_LAYER_cutouts.
Then I tested and laser cut all the parts in TechSpark. Finally, I assembled the whole box. I realized we do not have enough acrylic to print out the whole pill box, so I ordered more.
When meeting with Jieun, we realized we needed to adjust our pill box design because the servo sizing did not meet expectations. So I had to adjust the laser cuts I made one more time. I also realized we will need something to hold up the servos, so we ordered styrofoam.
I think I am a bit behind because I didn’t finish making the pill box since we ran out of acrylic. I will have all the files ready, so when the acrylic comes, I can print it right away
Next week, I hope to have the CAD files for the funnels finalized.
