Factorio Inserter

The Factorio inserter

Idea

The idea for this project came from playing the amazing game Factorio. It is a 3 axes humanoid robot arm (in my implementation 2.5 DoF, but that mostly depends on the controller) with 3 rotational axies.

BOM

There are a lot of parts needed for this model, other than the 3D printed ones.

• Fasteners (you can change the exact standards used, these are just what I've used):
  • 4 M6x45 ISO 4762 keyed screw
  • 7 M6 ISO 4032 nut
  • 3 M6x20 ISO 4762 keyed screw
  • 14 M5x12 ISO 4032 nut
  • 14 M5x12 ISO 4062 keyed screw
  • 2 M3x10 ISO 7045 philips head screw
  • 3 M6x60 ISO 4752 keyed screw
• 4 22x7 bearing
• 2 MG996R  360 degree servo
• 1 SG90 360 degree servo
• DC motor and gearbox combo like this one: https://www.dec-motor.com/dc-motor-180w-factory-3v-12mm-diameter-low-speed-brushed-motor-small-dc-motor-for-toy-car-bobet-product/
• too many M3 and M4 brass inserts to count

Assembly

Not writing a complete guide, do as it seems logical.
