Flex-16: Large-Displacement Monolithic Compliant Rotational Hinge

thingiverse

This innovative mechanism is a high-displacement singularly formed compliant rotational joint, engineered by BYU's CMR lab to optimize deployable hinges on spacecraft. What is a high-displacement singularly formed compliant rotational joint? High displacement means that it has a substantial degree of movement, and singly formed means that it can be crafted from a single piece of material. This is a hinge that is designed to rotate 180 degrees and can be manufactured in one piece.
