Testing
Requirement
Within torque limits when grasping a 1kg payload at full perpendicular reach both static and at maximum acceleration.
Test
Place 10cm diameter 1kg sphere in gripper
Execute motion that covers extremity of torque
Measure torque readings on actuators and ensure they are below spec
Repeat for endurance for 50 hours
Apparatus
Hardware
3D print the sphere
Fill with sand until it is 1kg
Mount the arm on a secured pillar to maximize it’s free workspace
Software
Terminal interface to
Begin the experiment
Configure singular or endurance run
Open gripper
Close gripper
Initiate motion
Save report to file
Generate motion that explores torque extremities by combing static torque loads with maximum acceleration
Can use an optimal planning appraoch where torque is both constrained but maximized via the cost function
Execute motion writing telemetry values to a table-like data strucure
Set soft and hard thresholds
Soft thresholds are a failure but do not stop the experiement
Hard thresholds stop the experiement
This lets us explore more and find multiple points of failure
Write telemetry data to CSV, write short text file with aggregations and summaries of
Thresholds exceded
Corresponding trajectory segments
Distribution and statistical summaries of positions, velocities accelerations, torques
Total time in motion
