InMoov shoulder potentiometer upgrade

thingiverse

I am currently building an Open source 3D printed robot called InMoov that you can find here: http://www.inmoov.fr. The servos on this robot are hacked for continuous rotation, and the potentiometer has been extracted so I can measure movement accurately. Unfortunately, the small potentiometers from the servos tend to break easily, which is why I created these parts to replace them with a larger one featuring a 6mm axle. A video demonstrates how to assemble everything properly. As of November 5th, 2016, I uploaded an updated version of the 6mmPotholder. The previous iteration did not provide a secure hold, so I made some improvements. This part is designed for use with the old shoulder design and comes in two versions: one without a cable guide and another with a cable guide. Here are my print settings: Printer: Vertex K8400 Rafts: No rafts were printed. Supports: No supports were used. Resolution: The resolution was set to 0.2mm. Infill: The infill percentage was 30%. After printing, I mounted the potentiometer to the shoulder as shown in this video.
