Low-cost arms built in Finland, assembling part of an actuator. Nice precision task.

I wonder what those arms are capable of 馃

@chris_j_paxton Two years of iteration on the actuators, motors and electronics, and the in-house volume manufacturing, more info dropping soon!

@fayezsalka @chris_j_paxton 2 yrs of r&d on actuators sounds right

@chris_j_paxton looks satisfying til you realize the arms just replaced three minimum wage workers with one tweaker and a blender

@chris_j_paxton assembling actuators by hand is slow, these low cost arms speed it up without losing quality
