Design of special jaws for the Ned2
- Content Type:Lab
- Equipment:Ned2
Scenario
Redesign the custom gripper jaws to hold jars of capsules.
The redesign will be optimized with the objective of minimizing the mass of the jaws while maintaining sufficient rigidity.
Laboratory Contents
Chapter 1 (1h30): Mechanical simulation of the gripper
- Validate the mechanical model
- Configure the model and carry out a static simulation
- Collect simulation results
Chapter 2: Design Optimization (3h)
- Simulate the behavior of the jaw under load
- Optimize the shape of the jaw
- Remodel the jaw
Chapter 3 (3h): Implementation
Prerequisites
Knowledge of mechanical technology: forces, stresses, kinematic links, as well as volume modeling, is preferable.
Required components

The Coffee Challenge
- Length:10h
- Content Type:Project
- Programming language:Blockly
- Equipment:Ned2
Scenario
The NED2 Robotic Arm makes a cup of coffee without human intervention.
The student discovers the basic functions of the Ned2 robotic arm. In this exercise, the Ned2 robotic arm, using the basic blocks of the Blockly “No Code” programming environment, performs a simple operation of picking up and placing a cup of coffee and pressing a button on the coffee machine. The exercise aims to show the student how to configure a robotic cell, how to adapt a gripper to specific needs (size of the coffee cup and button of the coffee machine) and how to carry out the sequence of movements to achieve the stain.
This exercise lends itself to a competition between different groups of students.
