The largest diameter of this bucket drum measures 440mm, while its total length reaches 333mm. Each slot for extracting regolith is designed with a width of 110mm. Integrated within these slots are detachable blades that effectively prevent cohesive regolith from blocking the opening. By limiting particles larger than 20mm in diameter to pass through, these blades minimize clogging issues. Furthermore, each blade has been angled at 20 degrees to optimize its performance. Weighing approximately 4.6kg, this drum is crafted from Aluminum 6061. With a maximum capacity of 31.5 liters, it's engineered for efficiency. The design of this bucket drum was influenced by the mathematical principles of the Fibonacci series.
