L.C. Technology ROBOT ASSEMBLY
Base Assembly Raised Tabs Place Servo in vice between Fibre Clamps. BASE Repeat process for other 2 servo’s File off raised tabs on each side of Servo.
Base Assembly File slot on base to size so that servo fits in tightly. M4 Set Screws Turn Servo so that Spindle is nearest to semi-circular end.
Base Assembly M4 Nuts used to secure servo in position
Feet 5 Legs M5 Set screws used to secure 5 legs. Thread one end of each of the 5 legs M5
Circular Disc Assembly Select the attachment shown from the servo pack and attach to circular disk as shown. Use screws supplied with servo to attach it to disc. * Watch the position of this hole
Vertical Up-Right Vertical Upright positioned as shown and glued using Liquid Solvent Cement. Hole on this side Important: Upright fitted so that it is flush with underside of disc. Do not attach to base until instructed!
Stabilising the base Using an M4 x 20 and two M4 nuts, one of the nuts to be placed above disc and the other below 4 stabilising set screws and nuts in place
Fitting Servo to Up-Right 2 M4 screws and nuts used to fix servo to Vertical Up-Right.
Horizontal Arm Hole at top of Arm Notch facing towards back
Gripper M2 screw and Locknut to secure Gripper pivot in place.
Gripper Narrow side to the top Glue both parts together. Be careful not to glue pivot point! Locknut
Back Servo Motor assembly Spindle of servo facing back of robot M3 x 20 Set screw used with 2 nuts, one nut in front and one behind M4 x 10 Set screw and nut
Assemble of Circular Disc onto Base Position Base as shown NB: Rotate Spindle of Servo Motor fully clockwise until it stops rotating. Attach disk and Up-right to servo as shown. Vertical upright should be Parallel to Back edge of base.
Secure Disc to Servo Use Servo Screw supplied to secure Disc to Servo. Do not over tigthen. Adjust stabilising screws accordingly
Top Servo Assembly Position Servo in slot as shown, with Servo spindle at the top. Secure with two M4 x 12 set screws and nuts. Spindle
Top Arm Assembly Fit top arm onto servo spindle but do not secure with screw until after calibration.
Servo Attachment Press fit servo attachment to servo motor but do not secure with screw until after calibration
2.5 mm Brass Rod Using a pliers bend an 90 degree angle on the end of the rod approx. 6 mm long. Remove burrs using a file
Brass Rod Assembly Insert brass rod through Servo attachment as shown. Do not cut the other end of rod until after calibration.
Genie Board Connections Gripper servo connected to Q2 Arm servo connected to Q1 Base servo connected to Q0 Orange/Yellow wire connected to signal in each case
Genie Board Connections Connect Genie Cable to Board and computer. Power up Genie Board with 6v battery and crocodile clips as shown. + -
Calibrating Horizontal arm Write the following program to position servo. Remove arm from servo. Run program live. Position arm so that it is just 10 mm above table. Press fit on servo spindle and secure with screw supplied.
Calibrating Gripper Movement Write the following program to position servo. Run program live. Position servo attachment so that one leg is at the 12 o Clock position. Press fit on servo spindle and secure with screw supplied.
Calibrating Gripper Movement Fit Brass rod through top hole as before. Close gripper fully and mark position of hole on brass rod using marker. Bend through 90 degree. Cut rod so that 3 mm of the bend is remaining. Remove burrs NB. This 90 degree bend is in a different direction to previous bend.
Elastic Band Attach elastic band as shown feed through hole in base and secure using a piece of Diameter 2.5 mm rod. Remove burrs The elastic band prevents the arm from jerking as it is moving.
Finishing Attach rubber adhesive feet onto 5 legs as shown. Completed Robot
Wiring of Hand Controller A2 A1 A0 Gripper Arm Base Knot on cable to prevent wires from breaking off.
Congratulations You now have a 3 axis Robot Arm ready for programming!
