Rov Manipulator (Parallel Gripper)
Description
This is a small Parallel Gripper that is used for a (Remote Operated Vehicle) ROV Manipulator. This is designed to fit a manipulator arm made from 1/2 PVC Pipe and activated with a geared motor spinning the shaft. These were designed to be easily swapped for various missions. These files are only for the gripper part of the manipulator... for ideas about the rest of the manipulator assembly see.... http://www.homebuiltrovs.com/rovforum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=1668&hilit=reboot&start=80 **Hardware required** (See pictures for screw layout.) *All screw holes are pre-tapped* (4) 2-56 x 1/2" screws (4) 4-40" x 3/8" Button Head Screws (3) 4-40 x 3/8" Flat Head Screws (1) 4-40 Setscrew 1/8" Diameter Stainless Steel Rod I printed this in PLA at 80% Infill but if using this under water the high infill the better. Some of the parts will need to be oriented to be printed properly. The fingers and forward hinges need to be printed x 2. The finger pads were printed in a flexible filament for better grip but can be cut from rubber.
