Dextrus v1.1

thingiverse

The Dextrus robotic hand is part of the Open Hand Project and features fully 3D printable parts, including those that are commercially available off-the-shelf. This means anyone with access to a 3D printer can make one, although it's currently a work in progress and not the easiest build. For detailed instructions on how to create this hand, visit http://www.instructables.com/id/Dextrus-v11-Robotic-Hand/. To print the parts, you'll need: 1 x Hand-Back.stl 1 x Hand-Back_2.stl 1 x Hand-Palm.stl 1 x Hand-Palm_2.stl 1 x Hand-Thumb.stl 1 x Hand-Thumb_Cover.stl 1 x Thumb-Joint_1.stl 1 x Thumb-Joint_2.stl 4 x Finger-Joint 1.stl 4 x Finger-Joint 2.stl 4 x Finger-Joint 3.stl 4 x Hand-Motor_Housing.stl 5 x Hand-Tensioner.stl 5 x Spool-Spool.stl Printing is best done in PLA, with cooling for proper bridging. Support may be required for some parts like the thumb and thumb cover. Layer height varies, with 0.15mm for spools and 0.25mm for other parts. ABS can be used for a less frictional surface. Cleanup is minimal, just removing flat bases from finger joints.
