Micro Manipulator v2.0

Hi! we have a new design for the micromanipulator! check this out:

3D Printed parts

-Axis Base: This is the main component of each axis because it holds all other components.

alt text

You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_base.stl

-Axis-Motor: It fixates the motor to the axis base

alt text

You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_motor.stl

-Axis TAP: The lid that closes the axis structure

alt text

You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_tap.stl

-Axis Bolt A: One of the two pieces that when coupled turn rotational movement into linear one.

You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_bolt_a.stl

-Axis Bolt B: This piece complements axis bolt A to turn rotational movement into linear one

You can find the STL file here:: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_bolt_b.stl

-Prof X: THis piece will let you fit the axis to the aluminium profile

alt text

You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/prof_x.stl

-Z needle A-B: These symmetric pieces will let you fit the needle to the Z axis
