The IP joint is currently optimised for FDM printing, so an SLA version must be created with appropriate tolerances etc

  • Since overhangs won't really be an issue with SLA, multiple parts in the assembly can be combined such as the driving pulleys and inner pivot components. This could also allow for a narrower assembly which is very desirable
  • A more appropriate bearing could be selected
  • A system to locate each layer against the next with pins or other protruding feature would aid assembly and potentially rigidity
  • A wire management system must be incorporated (although this could be part of shell components which are yet to be designed)
