Lithium grease is for high temperatures, it can soften pla and dissolve plastics over time, i figure silicone grease is cool for pla. awesome info i hadn't seen that thanks.

@andycrask3531 Yes, it's a great channel. I've been subbed to him for a few years. I like this actuator better than the cycloidal drive actuator that James Bruton build for his walking dog because it's much smaller with the motor assembly and everything as well as having fewer barrings which can jack up the cost a lot very quickly.

Great video. I would suggest you use a vice for press fitting things rather than a hammer, a vice let’s things go in straighter without any impacts. I would also suggest using nylon for the gears if you are able to print it. Edit: you should also stop mixing units, you measured the arm length in inches and then calculated torque in Nm. NASA made a mistake once due to mixing units and ended up destroying a probe.
Awesome job dude, just think how nice this will be if It was printed from a high quality UPAHT-CF15 or a PA11-CF instead of PLA, even ABS-CF would be a nice choice.

Hey, I'm almost done printing all the parts and I ordered everything I need. I was wondering, is there any particular reason you didn't use a BLDC motor from ODRIVE?
@@TheAdventureLog No I haven’t done stress tests yet. I also haven’t printed around with PETG but I’m pretty sure it should be stronger than PLA. You can always print at 100% infill if you are worried about failure.
I have a project I have been working on for a while and could really use your help. It's mostly about lighting automation for the movie industry. If you would be at all interested in having a convo I would love to chat sometime. this is the closest I have come to a solution for what I am building.
Brushless high torque motors, advanced motor controllers and complex control software... And then make it mediocre by using 3d printed gears. No. That's a waste of time. Do it properly when you get that far into it.
From the thumbnail, at first, I thought this was a 3-D printed set of dumbbells. And I was wondering how the hell you would get that to work. Wondering if you fill it up with water or rocks or something. Got I’m an idiot sometimes… Lol.
you went with an expensive motor, gave up on the cycloidal gearbox, and just used an Odrive, which makes this project equivalent to James Bruton's design (or worse, since he at least used a cool gearbox
Would be even better if the motor itself was printed from ferromagnetic plastic, copper wiring and neodymium magnets. There have been very successful attempts at in on YT so why not?
I want to learn this subject (3d modeling, designing, and electrical circuit board builting) what is the name of this field or subject Or from where i can start learning properly
Very cool. I have found that inexpensive force gauges from amazon are pretty good and useful for measuring things like this, they come with different attachments and mounting options, some of them have serial ports for data logging.
Please don't hammer bearings into place. If you must, at least find a short piece of metal tube the same size as the outer race and tappy-tap on that. Squeezing them in a vice would be better (with the ring to ensure all pressure is on the outer race) if you don't have any other kind of press. If you can't find or make an appropriate tube, maybe you could print something.
Enjoyed the video, but I think I found a flaw in your logic about robot domination. If the actuators are compliant, then the robot will be compliant and therefore no desire to take over the world I'll get me coat
I've only ever used white lithium grease. It works well for me and I've read that it's pretty good for PLA. I've also seen people use silicon grease for PLA.

this is awesome man! but this bed adehision is incredible. I just wanted to give you an advice about that, if you just hit the bed where it is, you are gonna destroy your bed level and also in the long run you can ruin the printer itself. with my cr-10 when it is really stuck there i remove the bed and i place it on a desk to scrape or bang it off. if you want to just pop the things of the printer it is really nice to have a glass or mirror bed with some hair spray on it or you can just higher up the Z-offset. i hope you find that helpful ;)

The torque is proportional to the area of the stator, not diameter. The flat ones are proffered due to the surface area which provides cooling.
