Actuators and threads
For this principle we use normal actuators. To give some indication a actuator with 1200n will:
- Have a size around 40mm*750mm
- Cost around 100 euro
- selflocking 800n
Advantages
- Small engines needed
- Simple principle
- Stabil/solid connections
- Big differences between neigboring elements possible
Disadvantages
- 4 Engines per box needed.
- Weight system
- Lot of chance of failure due to the number of engines.
.
Gearing in between
Advantages
- Only 2 engines per box.
- Less weight due to less engines.
- Individual controlable
- Big differences between neigboring pistons possible
Disadvantages
- Connection is vulnerable.
- By failing element no more possibillity to move box
- Less load bearing
.
Clicking mechanism
Advantages
- Highly pixelated which gives a freedom
- One actuator per piston
- Individual controlable
- Big differences between neigboring pistons possible
Disadvantages
- Supported by a framework, this connection can't be lost.
- Always vissible / present.
- Fixed movement possibillity's, in relation to the frame
