Automated IKEA Curtain

thingiverse

# Automated curtain This thing contains project files to automate your IKEA curtain. It works by directly driving the bar that rolls up the curtain with a NEMA17 stepper motor. The hardware can be driven by any Arduino. In my case I used an Adafruit Feather HUZZAH because my original plan was to connect it to my Google Home. I cancelled that idea because I actually don't like Google Home. So I opted for a physical switch. Get source (SolidWorks) on GitHub: https://github.com/LowiekVDS/Automated-curtain # Parts list - NEMA17 stepper motor - 3D-printed parts (see OUTPUT for STL files) - Lasercut parts (see OUTPUT for DXF files) - A pulley for the motor (you can also print this, but it is not really recommended). The pulley for the curtain bar is printed because it has uncommen dimensions. - A belt (the pulley of the curtain bar is designed for the 2GT type) - A power supply (5V, 12V, does not matter that much, perhaps you'll also need some converters) - Any Arduino-like microcontroller - Wire - Stepper Driver (I used the DRV8825, does not really matter) Feel free to contact me for any questions/problems, etc...
