I made a 3d printed, 5 axis, robotic arm in just my bedroom. My robot uses 3d printed cycloidal drives (20:1 and 13:1) with Nema(17 and 23) stepper motors. Its also completely Arduino based. This project costed me many hours of sleep deprivation and depression, so do me a solid and subscribe. If you like the video, be sure to comment robot ideas for me to spend all my money on.

    Hey man, thanks for this video. Can't explain enough how much time this saved me. After following, I was able to finally design and 3d print mine. It works very nicely with *almost zero backlash, except I am unable to properly align the output shaft with the two cycloidal discs. I used the same CAD models from Fusion 360 after using the curve generator, and after printing and assembling, the output shaft appears to be skewed, instead of being centered. Any chance you could advise on how to fix this? Would really appreciate. Many thanks.

    There is another variant of the planetary gear set that I rarely hear about: the compound planetary gear set. A compound set uses a small sun gear to drive very large planet gears, but the planet gears are rigidly co-axial with really small planetary gears that then turn inside a ring gear. This compound planetary gear system enables extreme gear reduction ratios using a planetary gear set, and doesn't have any additional moving parts compared to a traditional planetary gear set. This should be tested as well.

    • @Rudmin
      @Rudmin 4 місяці тому

      You can also do the same thing with a pair of cycloidal drives whose eccentricity cancels eachother out for some truly extreme drive ratios. You see this on UA-cam called a “hypocycloidal drive” which I think is probably a misnomer. It’s also sold commercially by Onvio under the name Dojen.

    Love this video and your whole style. I think you might be able to get much closer to your 40Nm target if you use some kind of code to smooth out the stepper acceleration. Maybe because its trying to lurch too much the motor driver current tops out or some shit? Maybe you've already done that and its just the way she goes with too much friction in the gear box though.

    • @nelsonhowee
      @nelsonhowee 5 місяців тому

      Thanks bro I appreciate it! I was messing around with acceleration prior to recording to try and give it some more leniency but I don't think it changes much at all, I think it all just narrows down to the friction

  • @michazarzycki1634

    I feel your pain, ive deisgned many 3d printed cycloidal gearboxes and the efficiency is just terrible. Im currently working on making my own almost fully metal cycloidal drive and im expecting some huge imprivemnt, maybe gonna make some video about the difference, but first i got to learn how to use lathe properly... have fun on your future projects.

  • @robertocuesta7778
    @robertocuesta7778 5 місяців тому

    I was designing a cheap cycloidal drive as well, very similar to yours just slightly smaller with very few bearings and no low friction materials, your efficiency numbers are very similar to mine (around 27%), I think that's about the limit of capability for a design that minimizes bearings and is mostly made out of 3d printed parts so I think the design is good, it's just reaching the limit of the materials and techniques used, I am yet to try lubricating the cycloid, but I don't expect it to be a huge improvement.

    I wonder how small you can make it, and then I wonder how well that would work in a 3d printer extruder with that high gear ratio! Has a lot of new designs are using planetary and other designs to generate high gear ratios to allow the stepper motors to turn at their optimal speed
