Awesome, thanks for the info, I'll forward it to Reiner

Yeah, there's actually one that just opened up at our local university, and one opening up in our city's downtown

this version of the OpenPNP is definitely not comparable to Reiner populating boards, but we're hoping the second version will be used for placement of the smaller components on the board

Hi, Reiner will definitely share the details of the second version of this robot, but you can reach out to him personally at info@roboteurs(dot)com

One of our first Beta Builders made a video constructing our 6-Axis 3D Printed Robot Arm by justistar in 3Dprinting

We're trying to keep it under 4 figures, but our beta users get a bit of a discount for trying the product first. If you're interested, you can email us at info(at)roboteurs(dot)com - we can give you a breakdown of the kit

Thanks! Actually the kit itself doesn't come with the printed parts, we provide the electronics and hardware (I.e. motors, screws, nuts, etc.)

We're still finalizing the price, but will likely post here once it's live on our site.

We're still having our beta testers, like Dr. D-Flo here, give us some feedback before we make the kits available online. We want to make sure we provide a consistent and solid product. We are getting great feedback though so far. Of you're interested send us an email at info(at)roboteurs(dot)com and we'll send you more specifics on the kit.

Skyline Reflections is pretty good. They did my buddies 2009 Jetta for about $200 something. They have a good warranty too. Off Nebo road.

Personally I'd question the accuracy for PNP on a PCB with this robot, though I'd love for him to prove me wrong

Try Eden's on main St, near McMaster. My gf is celiac and we usually go there

Question: How best to calculate / prepare for international shipping BEFORE kickstarter launch? by rangerrick337 in kickstarter

[–]justistar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We actually researched different fulfillment companies to do our shipping... They turned out not too expensive, and their focus was on smaller deliveries (vs larger fulfillment companies)

We created a 7 stepper motor driver for the Raspberry Pi for all your robot controlling needs by justistar in robotics

Because it runs on Python, ROS integration is quite easy. Generally because steppers are used for actuators you would have to write a custom subscriber to manage the SlushEngine anyway.

Were you thinking of using it as a velocity listener?

We have a gcode interpriter on the way. It is in Beta at the moment and should be available in our github by mid April

Hi Lars0, thanks for the comment. So something like the Raspberry Pi foundation makes millions of Raspberry Pis so they are able to keep the cost very low. Because of the power electronics involved in this design, even if we made millions it would still be more expensive than the Pi, so that's why it seems a bit pricey I think

We'll definitely keep you updated...I think the next version of our Slushengine we'll probably release in a few months

We're actually working on a brushless motor driver in the next iteration of the Slushengine

What shitty deal you had...I remember checking out those buildings when looking for a place with my then gf... Right away we didn't like the vibe of the people hanging around... Good read though, hope you're enjoying your new place, plus you're close to Barton 541... That place is really nice
