Venus Arm assembly manual
Insert the motors as shown in the image
secure it in place with two M2 8mm screws, put them as shown
Put the motor screws as shown in the image
Attach the forearm to the back side as shown here
Insert the 3M 10mm screws
Cut the connector as shown
Insert the electronics as shown in the image
Now insert the wires of the motors through the cavity
Solder the connectors to the sensor
Position the sensor(s) as shown
Connect each motor and sensor as shown
Cut the servo pulley, then glue it to the main pulley
Put the pulleys in this position
After this you can rotate the pulleys through the assembling process if you need to.
Put the pulley screws as shown.
Index finger
In each finger there should be two lines, one to close the finger and one to open the finger (red line represents the line for closing the finger, the green line represents the line for opening the finger)
Put the two lines in the holes on the tip of the finger, as shown
You should push the line till they come out on inside the the hand, they should look like this inside the finger
Then you should put the lines in the cavity as shown
Then turn them around the pulley as shown
this is how it should look like from the other side
then put the ends of the line in the hole like this
Now, put a 3M 4mm screw inside as shown
Connect the electronics to the power bank so the servo motors can go back to their initial position.
Pull the “green” line from the tip of the finger and put a M2 8mm screw in the cavity
Now, pull the “red” line and insert a M2 8mm screw in the cavity.
Cut the lines at the tip of the finger after you insert the screws
Middle finger
The process of putting the line in the finger is the same as the index finger,
insert the lines in the cavity
turn the “red” line around the pulley and through the cavity as shown
now turn the “green” line around the pulley and through the cavities as shown
and put a M3 4mm screw in the same cavity
Ring finger
(the middle finger steps are deleted here due to simplification of the instructions)
Put the lines in the cavity.
turn the “red” line around the pulley and through the cavities as shown
now turn the “green” line around the pulley and through the cavities as shown
now put the ends of the lines inside this cavity
and put a M3 4mm screw in the same cavity
Little finger
(the middle and ring finger steps are deleted here due to simplification of the instructions)
Put the lines in this cavity
turn the “red” line around the pulley and through the cavity as shown
now turn the “green” line around the pulley and through the cavity as shown
now insert the ends of the lines inside this cavity
and put a M3 4mm screw in the same cavity
Connect the electronic to the power bank so the motor rotate to it’s initial position.
Pull the “green” lines from the tips of the fingers one by one while putting M2 8mm screws in these cavities
Pull the “red” lines from the tips of the fingers one by one while putting M2 8mm screws in these cavities
cut the lines at tips of the fingers after you put the screws.
Palm
Put a M2 screw here
now, put a ball bearing here
how secure the ball bearing in place with two screws, put them as shown
Put the line guide for thumb as shown
secure it in place with two M2 8mm screws, put them as shown
Now put an M2 14mm screw in this cavity
it will come out from the other side as shown
Now, put the pulley for the thumb through the screw like as shown
Now, put the line in the thumb simmular to the other finger.
Put the lines in this cavity
now turn the “green” line around the pulley as shown
From the other side it should look as shown
Now, turn the red line around the pulley
Put the lines in this cavity
Put a M2 4mm screw in the cavity
Pull the “green” line from the tip of the finger while inserting a M2 8mm screw in this cavity
Pull the “red” line from the tip of the finger while putting a M2 8mm screw in this cavity
Cut the line on the tip of the finger
put the palm as shown
Secure the palm with these screws
Put the power bank here
Now connect the power bank
Attach the electrodes to the clips on the sensor, unwrap them and place them on your forearm. Depending on your muscle development, you can place the sensor on either side of the forearm:
Electrode placement:
No. 1 – In the middle of the muscle
No. 2 – At the end of the muscle
No. 3 – Away from the muscle
Congratulations! You have built the Venus Arm!
