Re: Convergence to self replicating - 13 years ago
We can see from MattMoses and VDX discussions +-1e9 metre are achievable in home brew. Very interesting stuff. It seems skies the limits on whats possible. martinprice2004 I agree with you on the scaling and averaging. It would be interesting if we use first generation positioning drive for fast movement and a finer second, or third generation positioning drive for finer movement (or position cby PMCG - Developers

Thanks MatMoses and VDX you've given me a lot to read and think about.by PMCG - Developers
Re: Convergence to self replicating - 13 years ago
I was thinking along the same lines parallel kinematics with multiple grade solid-state-hinges. If you have a look at google under "Qi Xia" "michael yu wang" level set optimization They have done trusses, micro tweezers, and other mechanics using similar methods to what I'm thinking of. Putting in the proper solver restraints and let the mechanics work themselves out unaided. As for the softwarby PMCG - Developers

Thanks nophead. Gave me something to think about. Has anyone yet built a reprap that (besides the electronics) was 100% reproducible by the reprap. I know it probably wouldn't compare to current state of the art Reprap's where parts are introduced from the outside. I'm seeking to understand what the current limitations and restrictions are. So you know where I'm coming from my background is inby PMCG - Developers
Convergence to self replicating - 13 years ago
I have been reading this forum for a while and I would like to give a hats off to all the rep rapper's out there. It's impressive. I do have a question... Aside from the electronics, is there any machines yet that can produce a part more accurate than the most accurate part it requires in it's construction? Regards, Paul.by PMCG - Developers
