This project showcases the design and implementation of a cable-driven robotic elbow joint inspired by human arm dynamics. The goal was to achieve high stiffness and low inertia using a tension amplification mechanism, making it suitable for robotics applications such as human-robot collaboration and lightweight manipulators.
- Tension Amplification Mechanism: Increases joint stiffness quadratically, maintaining low mass and inertia.
- Lightweight Design: Combines 3D-printed components and aluminum alloy for reduced weight.
- Tools Used: Siemens NX for CAD modeling and mechanical design.
