Mechanics
Different systems were researched for the first phase of the project - different systems. They were compared with each other with their individual advatages and disadvantages. In the end a system with little actuators driving a thread where the element can move over the threat was chosen. This element is also connected to the thread in the neighbouring box. In this way it is possible for the boxes to move completely up and down.
Prototyping
Motors
For this principle the best motors would be steppermotors. This motor can be controlled very precisely. Due to the different atractors in the motor, it can be controlled within a rotation of two degrees. The second advantage of these motors are their size and strength.
