qbmove maker pro (v0.1)
Upgraded version of the open source Natural Machine Motio actuator
with custom electronics and high-strength aluminum parts
nominal torque* of 1.3 Nm – nominal speed* 7 rad/s
variable stiffness range* [0.6 – 8] Nm/rad
rotation range* +/-180°
qbmove advanced (v1)
Qbmove Advanced reaches the better performance in the Qbmove family, at the cost of a more sophisticated design. Many components are customized (e.g. gear box, pulleys, carter), and only few ones can be realized through rapid prototyping. However, in the design we considered and then tested for the realization of all components, the use of a numerical controlled machine instead of the injection (which is less accessible for small groups since requires large scales to be economically feasible).
qbally
This device allows you to easily connect the power supply to the qbmove units and access to the RS485 communication bus.
Mechanical interconnections
Mechanical interconnection flanges to attach several qbmove and realize a qbmate
Tendon making tool
A tool to help the creation of tendon with a given lenght.
