First articulated joint by the end of this year

Martin Raak | 28. September 2009

We originally wanted to manufacture injection molded tools in connection with the HMI in order to produce the product as shown.Increase the transferable torques by means of design improvement to the transfer between articulated joint and rod, reduce cable friction by making changes to the design and materials, but above all: integrate magnetic sensors to measure and transfer the current angle positions in the articulated joint.

These, in our view, necessary improvements will, however, delay the planned injection molding production. We assume that by the end of this year we will be able to present the first finished articulated products, which are then produced by injection molding.

We would like to apologize to you for having published a production deadline in the euphoria of the Hanover Messe, which we have not kept.
We ask for your understanding over the technical development of the products and the associated delay.
