Day 27: malfunctioning motors

Mechanical attempted to use old software to test motors and pneumatics for an arm on practice bot arm. The testing proved good because it showed that the launching plate releases consistently. This is because of good pneumatics and a ball shifter.



Then they changed the mini cims to regular cims on the puncher mecahnism because it would not go back in testing



They tested the puncher again after the addition of the bigger cim and it exploded. Then they decided to tap a new hole to attach puncher again and better



Programming is testing code for puncher and continuing to calibrate command for the arm. Darius, the head of programming, decided that he needs a haircut. He has been so busy with robotics that he has neglected this necessity. 

Design is drawing out ideas for and cad for climber.
