Circular-Base-Stewart-Platform, Part 10, The Motion-Demo

[@AxfordIndustries]

Beautiful mechanism, love the elegant design

[@voiceafx]

Very nice! That circular base is a novel idea. I'm very impressed.

[@DrBwts]

Love it, I would have to get rid of that beeping though

[@NSResponder]

Interesting variation on the common Stewart platform, and I think it could be both more robust and lower in cost than a system of linear actuators.

[@Licky723]

Dude this is the next 3d print platform!

[@asteriondaedalus6859]

There may be a practical use, as I think it could sit under a solder paste stencil and have the degrees of freedom to align the board with the stencil. Agree a desk mount version might be over the top but built into a small table would make sense. Not obviously for the faint hearted, but those with a sense of adventure 😉. If you're not publishing the model, have you a story about the kinematics perhaps?

[@MattDenton]

Great work! Love it :)

[@dickonmitchell8568]

Nicely done!

[@TomBielecki]

Have you considered open sourcing this to see what the open hardware community is able to do with it?

[@alexyao5202]

Very Cool!Could you share the code?

[@chafikchaf5827]

Ohh you did it man , very good ,very good

[@ElectronDust]

Great work! 2 Thumbs up!

[@aleksanderhammernes8907]

This is truly a nice concept! Could you give som guide to where you found the mathematics for the code ?

[@MD_Builds]

I say this while nearly finishing my corexy printer design.... This is thatlevel of mathmatics and engineering that is pure black magic to me..... Amazing... is the idea behind this to build a multi axis printer? So to eliminate the need for overhang support? I imagen youll have to develop a whole new type of slicing engine and gcode for fdm prints? Or is this purely for CNC machining?

This project needs a follow-up video and some dialog.

[@555center]

Please see the Mikrolar R3000 for a Production Ready version of this device. :)

[@circular-base-stewart-plat8428]

I'm kind of disapointed. Not the first with this idea. That's life!!!

[@boggers]

@@circular-base-stewart-plat8428 Fantastic idea all the same. I have the beginnings of an idea for a scaled up, but mechanically simplified version for racing / VR motion sim type applications. I'm very curious, did you pursue this any further?

[@Histolia]

Very interesting concept

[@andreasherz4605]

I find the design absolutely beautiful and would love to use it myself. I am simply thrilled. Unfortunately, this project has become very quiet. You hear nothing more as it continues, no code how to control the motors or, if it is really great, a customized Marlin version - you can dream :-) But seriously, is it going on or any plan to make the project open source? It would be too bad to let it die.

[@thomashoffmann4504]

very clever

[@tpmax242]

WOW Genial unlimit Yaw

[@cameronklassen8413]

is this real

[@cameronklassen8413]

?

[@JohnnySanchez-aka-7rooper]

Very complex movements and correct. Not for practical use. Too much weight on the wheels

[@askal916]

did you mean the balls? Yes I'm serious.
