#autosampler #scararobot
In this video, I begin building the autosampler for my HPLC project. The autosampler will be designed as a SCARA robot. The forearm is actuated by two 30 kg Waveshare bus servos with magnetic encoders, and a Nema 8 stepper motor with 5:1 planetary gearing, enabling the extendable gripper to manipulate sample vials. All aluminum parts were made by hand because I do not own a CNC mill or a metal lathe.
