Guest Speaker: Dave Foye, Retired Electrical Engineer
The DE class asked Dave Foye to come in and lead us through different considerations for the Exo Arm Project.
Some key bullet points we took away from the discussion were:
- The real problem is the relationship between the tool and the workpiece.
- How much force (ft/lbs) can the exo skeleton structure support.
- We have to determine the idealized path the tool moves on.
- How many degrees of freedom of movement do we need to support.
- How do we balance the design? For example..over design the tool holder but under design the support structure for it.
- Mechanical vs fully automated or hybrid.
