Stewart Platform
Aim:
To fabricate Stewart Platform, and control it with Arduino
Components Used:
- Arduino Uno
- MG995 Servos x 6
- Servo Horns x 6
- Rod End Bearing Spherical Joints - 6mm x 12
- Metal shafts with threading - 6mm x 6
- LM2596S DC-DC Buck Converter x 3
- Power Source AC-DC 12V-2A supply
- Screws and nuts- M3 x 6
- Jumper Wires
3D Printed Parts:
Upper Base x 1
Used as upper part of the system, which we are supposed to move. It has extrusion for the “Rod End Bearing Spherical Joints”
Connector x 6
Used for connecting hole of “Rod End Bearing Spherical Joints” (6 mm), to the hole of Servo horns (3 mm)
