Series: Let's Build an Antweight
Game: Robot Combat
Rapid Prototyping the Structure of your Antweight Combat Robot is the next step in the build process. The use of 3D Printing helps us to quickly try out design changes to our robot and validate that our robot is actually practical to build.
In this video, I 3D print several version of my chassis and explain what issues I encountered with each version. Ultimately, I am trying to complete four goals with this step:
1) Make sure all your components fit. This is harder to do that one would expect
2) Address an assortment of design issues
3) Determine How maintainable your robot is
4) Accurately estimate the final weight of your chassis.
