Robotic placement - 3d printed automatic screw packaging

[@abdullahkose6914]

Such an amazing quality content! Thanks for sharing.

[@tftg458]

I'm a industrial designer and i am so jealous of this guy's knowledge and mindset...

[@AttilaAsztalos]

Definitely worth all that R&D effort if you're shipping at the very least a thousand products each month. Or if you're Apple and forgot that your Kuka robots can do the same thing orders of magnitude faster.

[@dirtdart81]

Such a small number of videos band such a high degree of polish. Absolutely stunning machine and it only took you a week? You're brilliant and will go far!

[@autofctrl]

This is one of the few times I really thank YT for recommending me a certain Video. I watched the last one first but just gone back to the beginning to see the entire progress, alterations in design and features, despite I don't need such a system, it's such a very well made, greatly documented and extraordinarily presented series that to me it has become a "must watch".

[@cosmin6988]

Is there any chance you could go into more detail about the tensioning system ?

[@widelx1259]

+1 too. It seems completely clean and crazy easy to use

[@RupeTotRo]

+1 Please give us a hint on what part moves to do the tensioning.

[@fredyy]

I think its just a threaded rod, that runs through the hole in the extrusion and pushed on the roller on the other side.

[@christopherhelmke]

sure, to be honest it's not really tricky. @Frederick explained it well. It's just a threaded rod that goes through the hole in the aluminum profile and is connected to the roller on the other side. On the threaded rod sits a pair of springs. The rear motor mount has a sliderail that runs in the profile. This allows you to "extend" the rear motor up to 40mm. I like that it is easy to access from the front and pretty straightforward to use. But it is unfortunately not witchcraft

[@joell439]

Definitely would like see more details about this as well

[@octavio2895]

Pretty neat idea! Piling is definitely an issue that is very common in robotics. Perhaps you should allow the screw to land vertically into its own vertical chamber maybe made from a hex grid pattern like an infill? Turning it sideways before placement is also an option but its definitely more complicated.

[@fredyy]

Exactly my thought, add some simple dividers in the pocket, for each screw, and place them, each one in its own place. the divers don't have to be solid or go over the full height, just some bridges in the middle and some more on the top

[@joshuavillwo]

Exactly! Or even better, redesigning the part such that you place the screws into chambers where they are actually meant to use. Automating the placing of captive bolts in a 3d printed part could be really awesome!

[@dungleanh644]

I don't understand how to tighten the belt at 7:36 Can someone explain it to me?

[@marsgizmo]

impressive project! great job! 👏😎

[@good_Vibe_design]

I really like the way your mind works. It's not about whether this use case was a success or failure. As you point out, it's about harnessing an idea that can later be used and expanded for other cases.

[@JmonteroArg]

People, please, stop telling this man what he is doing is a bad idea. Just let this man's mind fly! Our job is just to sit back and enjoy the greatness of his builds. What he is doing is amazing, let's all rejoice by him sharing a piece of his mind will all of us.

[@ollie9397]

This is amazing, I love the use of the euro crates, the concept of the modular system, the neat and professional execution, well everything. Brilliant.

[@KeithSachs]

criminally under rated channel, this is an amazing idea, super well done. I would love to implement a system like this to embed magnets, or potentially even automatically install heatset inserts.

[@hack_jammer]

real

[@rightsdontcomewithpermits7073]

Yeah, people are so lazy nowadays.

[@scruffy3121]

Hab den Kanal erst vor kurzem entdeckt. Aber die Projekte und Lösungen sind super interessant.

[@oba_kinbo]

Totally insane! This is a game changer, can’t wait to see what people do with this. And it’s really awesome to see the Bambu X1 being used as the platform to bring different technologies together. Well done!

[@mavamaarten]

That system with the rack and pinion to rotate/stow the shaft away is absolutely brilliant! I must say that just looking at how easily your module slots in the top of the printer is also a great show of perfect product design.

[@VinokDesign]

Don't excuse yourself for slow video throughput. You are doing amazing! Don't loose yourself for others complaining. I'm more than happy to see these video's at this rate❤

[@tHaH4x0r]

Nice to see someone actually talk about exact constraint design. Too many people who make random designs on the internet have no real clue about constraint design, and end up with a lot of issues because of overconstraint, or not constraining properly.

[@jeffkunkler9299]

I appreciated how honest and objective you were about how this system works! NO hype and low key. However the execution is really remarkably well done and is pushing on how this type of printing could be advanced in the manufacturing space. Excellent work Sir!

[@grifftech]

I have a print farm with 47 Bambu printers and just saw this and this is damn amazing!!! Definitely subbing!!!

[@serkandurak7108]

Normally I don’t comment videos. Considering the value you are providing and the possibilities in DIY projects you are presenting, I would like to thank you. We need more creative people like you. Doesn’t matter that the automation did not 100% fit for your use case. Thanks a lot! Wish you all the best.

[@yagosantiago10]

Man, your content is absolutely fenomenal. As an engineering student I love any kind of automation and the way that you do things is just so satisfying and creative. Thanks for sharing your projects with us

[@slay3r1452]

This as absolutely incredible. I love the idea of packaging the screws in the 3d print for shipping.

[@Trust_me_I_am_an_Engineer]

Thanks for posting this. Your equipment is very well engineered and an excellent example of where to use metal parts and where to use 3d printed ones.

[@HannesMrg]

Screws packaged inside the print is such an awesome idea! Also thank you for this awesome video. Explanation and animations are 100% on point.

[@cinobro6393]

Incredible designs as always!

[@THERE.IS.NO.DEATH.]

it only took you just over a week to design, build and program that? wtf???

[@JD_Manufacturing]

Take THAT AI..

[@TheMax107]

It's called having free time 😅

[@carlastreit]

finally! was waiting for a new video, your stuff is amazing!

[@absak]

I normally don't comment but i have to ! Your videos are of such high quality ! It is inspiring me to make more projects on my own, please continue to make these videos ! they're super good !

[@billkellogg1403]

Hey Christopher, you will sky rocket to 1 million subscribers!! I am one of them! Please keep the honest approach and enthusiasm!

[@LordOfTamarac]

Your video quality is awesome, I love the approach and aesthetic, keep it up

[@cidadaoPPT]

This is just a perfectionist/automation/optimization dream channel! Great job dude! Please keep sharing your amazing work!

[@infiniteoffset]

I didn't expect so much content when I subscribed after the screw packing video.

[@fx622b]

I just found this channel but I can already see it's going to be addictive. Excellent ideas all around !

[@mohamadsajadpour716]

The way you solve problems one after other is incredible. Best wishes.

[@KasimirvonFinck]

Christopher, all of it is brilliant! Please keep it up! Your design is clean and straight forward and I love the dispensers! I also have a XC1 printer and love it.

[@awesomelyslowplastic]

Way way way underrated channel! But it won't stay like that for long. Not hard to predict with the quality of content you deliver. Well done

[@Xmoneybunny]

Amazing stuff again! You are one of the few channels i have the bell icon on for haha! Keep it up!

[@BureauSpicy]

This might be my new favourite channel. I really love your videos, very inspiring.

[@Catalysis1144]

This is the kind of 3D printing videos that I would love to watch.. Super!

[@alldecentnamestaken]

Don't give up on this idea. I think this has a lot of potential and could totally transform what can be produced with 3D printing.

[@oddiev]

you are a freaking genius!!! specially packaging the part inside the part itself. Keep up the awesome work and hopefully we can all learn more to design like you do!

[@voyeger4464]

Your videos are solid gold, my friend. please keep 'em coming.

[@darktherapy]

The idea of holding the screws in a small chamber that the user releases them from is genius. Using strands of filament to seal them. New subscriber here.

[@SonicBlastGamingCSGOmore]

Amazing! I want to get into 3d printing every time I see someone create something so amazing with it.

[@jimgeroul]

Most underrated channel on youtube :O keep up the great work mate.. this is amazing!!

[@JuPrgn]

It's a pleasure to watch your high quality videos ! You always build brillant mechanism with a perfect engineering approach. Keep up the good work 👏

[@Nifty-Stuff]

Wow, I'm not sure if I'm more impressed with your feeder designs, builds, presentation skills, or editing. Regardless.... KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!

[@JoshuaHaasua]

Extremely impressed by this design. Excited to see more!

[@janbutz5169]

deine videos finde ich immer voll geil. immer wenn ich mal dazu komme youtube zu schauen bzw die entwicklung meiner teile produktion zu langsam wird schau ich mir gern die videos von dir an. momentan mach ich noch keine schwierigen teile wozu ich sowas bräuchte aber die richtung selber etwas zu konstruieren ist geil

[@LiveEasy]

Thank you for sharing.This is phenomenal work and I feel lucky that you've shared it.

[@dejan.]

Just found this but it’s really up my alley, keep innovating and documenting this for us - subscribed!

[@alycapo3391]

Yessss! Love your content but we need more!

[@eeyzas2]

seriously impressive work, there were some very clever details in that design, thank you for sharing

[@piccilos]

I really enjoy the engineering/problem solving you go through. You could 3d print simple boxes to store the screws in for shipment instead of manually handling bags. Peeling a tray of pre-counted boxes off a printer plate 'may' be less time and work than opening a bag and holding it under a dispenser. Also, your customers get an extra little box.

[@attilah]

Mind blown, love the creativity and the precision! I would just build the motion system for fun...same reason I'm still love putting together Technic Lego sets!

[@kaischoening3606]

Super Impressive! Please continue on creating such a great, smart and high quality content!

[@kamhaq]

You can take to the next level by adding a camera to detect abnormal inserts, or with a robot arm to place the insert, very cool project you opened the floodgate for possibilities.

[@Terrestre1]

Incredible talent! Subscribed after 10 seconds of the first video I saw.

[@cs16DeRo]

I was impressed, really good planning and execution! 👍

[@theycallme_nightmaster]

this is awesome. I was thinking about how to accomplish the same thing with pick and place method just this week. Very well done

[@timryder4036]

Your videos are incredibly inspiring. I wish I had a tenth of your creativity.

[@derekc423]

I think you could put a stiff brush around the end of the nozzle that drops the parts and after dropping them, just do a quick sweep left to right to make sure all the screws are turned to the side. The bristles would also serve to help keep anything dropped from bouncing out.

[@LDS-Hellgineer]

i love your hbot motion system and your overall design in these projects!

[@teitgenengineering]

This channel deserves more subscribers!!

[@mylittleparody2277]

As usual, a very nice video and clean well thought design! Thanks a lot for sharing!

[@neetones]

Dude, you're a genius. Brilliant work.

[@shimmerite_ua]

Excellent production quality of videos, keep up the good work!

[@abishekbabu8061]

That is a very cool belt tensioning mechanism indeed. It would be really helpful if you can make a tutorial on that specific part. This is a really cool project, hats of to you.

[@ithaca2076]

i have absolutely no use for any of this but im absolutely in love with every single bit of it.

[@MrMann-dw5uh]

This machine has potential! It can (and will) work!!! The only problem is keeping the screws in the same tail-up orientation when it lands in the hole of the printed part. You might want to have the head of the screw inserter (the part labeled "DIN912 M416") move in a straight line each time it inserts a screw; however, it might require tuning of the pneumatic system so that it doesn't give the screw enough energy to bounce and lose orientation. Or an easier option would be to increase the, depth of the, cavity the screws are placed in, regardless of their orientation or likelihood to jump out.

[@unicornadrian1358]

Outstanding creativity and excellent execution! I only found your channel today and love it already. The way you sequentially build on previous projects reminds me of my favourite channel, Thinking and Tinkering / Robert Murray Smith.

[@Matthew-sp5kv]

i've used commercial nut feeders that cost well in excess of $10k each, even those had tons of problems. It's a tough nut to crack. The fact that you managed to get a working one with 3d printed parts is impressive as hell.

[@slothrockerz]

Absolutely Brilliant !! - You are very talented - Love your videos.

[@yelsew816]

Wow! What a fascinating design! I look forward to your future videos. I want one.

[@THEOGGUNSHOW]

Outstanding work Sir.

[@danielwdunn]

This is brilliant.

[@UNKNOWNMAER]

Понравилась эта работа. Очень интересно рассказал и продемонстрировал. Впечатляют записи на двери.👍

[@RasmusSE]

Really nice! I'm definitely borrowing your clever tool holding idea :)

[@spudnickuk]

You have a good concept And it just needs perfection I'm sure you will get their as you have started a whole new concept for manufacturing with 3d printing I hope you can get a sponsor to help you produce a product. That I think is worth it.

[@Joseph-rk7kh]

You are one impressive young man! Very cool motion system with great engineering. Can’t wait to see what you do next.

[@jiridvorak9381]

This is awesome content, man! I really appriciate work behind this video same as your advices to Prusa as it is my lovebrand. In Czechia we have proverb: "Do not fall asleep on the cloud of success./ do not rest on one's laurels " I am worried that Prusa now woke up and realized that his train already left the station

[@justinpedersen9174]

Love the videos, take all the time you need to make the content and the things you want to make. We'll be here when you're ready. I know its a little early on but maybe even a second channel or YT shorts for ideas that don't fully make it into videos? You've got us hanging on every word, keep up the amazing work

[@TheWatchMker]

Dude such a good idea, what a badass. Loved the video, thanks for addressing questions

[@deejayottof]

You are truly talented and I like the way you present your designs. You seem like the person who has the whole thing designed in your head before you even open up cad :D

[@Kiboz2000]

I love to see smart content on KZbin..great work.

[@alinsarboiu980]

maaaaaan, u'r smoooooort 😁 high quality on everything from concept to execution and also on video production quality

[@mattbdreaming]

Wow! This is incredible stuff! Hope you do publish models, i would love to chuck this into the wild and play around with modules in VR. I love the entire concept!

[@rahix]

your videos are so incredibly inspiring! here's an idea where your current design would work wonders: embedded screws into the part such that you cannot loose them. like placing a screw into a counterbored hole where the counterbore partially narrows at the entrance such that the screw is trapped inside. I always love parts where screws can't fall out, makes disassembly & maintenance just so much more pleasant

[@bansci]

This is absolutely fantastic, well done! So excited to see what you build next, and I can't wait to build your systems based on your designs and ideas. I want to build a bolt and nut sorter based on your loader, and absolutely love this X1 Carbon loader idea. About reliability, remember perfect is the event of good! Release your designs early, test in production and get better feedback faster. Keep up the excellent work!

[@mobile.cristhianguedes]

Hi... Perfect design... Can I give a tip? About the screws going out, is because of aceleration while falling down... How about putting some electromagnet at the end of the tube? You can activate electromagnet while the screw is falling, use some light sensor to see when the screw is stopped at the right end of the tube, and turn off the electromagnet, this will allow the screw to fall slowly... Sorry for my english, still learning.

[@tinkerman1790]

You are incredible! The concept to package the bolts is so cool 😎 I can’t stop myself to subscribe your channel asap.

[@AlexanderEresov]

Specialised toolhead for toolchanger that places metal parts is an excellent idea. Can't wait to see something like it in action.

[@Ernestasish]

I can imagine the future of 3d printing with automated placement of nuts and screws inside the 3d printed part like you suggested. It will cut cost and make 3d printing rise even more! :D

[@noriega211]

Your videos are wonderful and very informative. Thank you for a great prototyping video❤

[@matts8023]

Great work, great content, great delivery!

[@CraigBurden1]

Great idea, this is one of my new favorite channels! One idea to solve the screws piling up issue. What about making the tool head a detachable extension to the magazine. So the orientation is maintained horizontal? You could even have an arm in the path of the dispenser screw to optionally flip it vertical similarly to the part you designed to feed the tube

[@ChakaHamilton]

The algorithm bought me to your channel and I am so glad it did I enjoy videos like these long-format will you go into detail of your build process.

[@mutlubasdas]

First time seeing your videos. But instantly subbed! Amazing stuff.
