Development and Application of 3D-printable Screw Electromechanical Coupling

摘要

Multiple modular robots have coupling mechanisms to adapt their target tasks and environments. It is important to make 1:Low-backlash, 2:Low-cost, and 3:Easy attach/detachable couplings for sharing the same mechanism for many modules and applications. We propose the 3D-printable Screw Electromechanical Coupling and evaluate its specifications with robots that have mechanisms and servomotors.
