    Hey Guys,

    I’ve spent the last few weeks assembling the head and it seems to be coming along well! I do have a question about the eyes though. I did some closer inspection on the eye mechanism and I realized the eyes tend to rub on the lower part of the eye opening. I’ve tried adjusting the height of the mechanism and nothing seems to fix it. Bel…En afficher davantage

    Hello @ all InMoov Fan´s,

    I made a redisign/upgrade for the Stronger Shoulder from gestalt73.
    – I changed the Servoholder from the PivMit for the stronger 7,4V Servo Savöx SV-0236MG (40Kg)
    – 2 Ball Bearings ( Size 61709 ) for the PivGearV5 and 1 Ball Bearing ( Size 689 ) for the PivWorm are inside the Wormgear now.

    • Nice work Boris… I would love to see the finished gearbox when you get it all together…

    • Great improvement for long term usage! Thanks for posting, I will add it to the InMoov derivatives collection if you share it on Thingiverse! Remember to use the same licence, CC-by-NC.

    • Yes, I will share it on Thinggiverse, but I have to modify some other parts too.
      I´ve modifyed the PivCenter the RotCenter and the RotTilt because I had Trouble to assemble all parts with the strong PivCommector.

    Hello Mr Gael,, The rebuilding and cutting up of Inmove in SketchUp for bigbed printing is coming along nicely,, as I was doing it a though it might be worth taking some pictures of the parts assembled but not cut up for reference for other builders,, as you can see in the posted picture it will give builder a better understanding of how it all…En afficher davantage

    • How is it working in SketchUp with the native STL files?

      • Surprisingly well,,, given SketchUp many many flaws and limited tooling, but I can work 10 times faster in it doing non-complex objects,, just finished doing an expansion pack” ericthepoolboy” “Toyota 22RE Engine”
        The engine block and valve head really start to slow down SketchUp-and lost some section during the conversion, but SketchUp is up t…En afficher davantage

    • Thanks for the image. I’m adding it into the tutorial 3Dsketch views. It will certainly help other builders.
      Sketchup works pretty well with STL as long as the files do not have too many vertices. Many CAD softwares like to abuse with curves on all the edges and corners, which creates super heavy STL. Sketchup may then start to be very laggy. My…En afficher davantage

    • Hello Mindless,
      Thanks for posting the picture. I have added it to the chest and torso 3D sketch view.
      I see you do not have my ThroatLowerV1.stl, but a variation, which might confuse some builders though.

      • Good eye,,, I forget about that, here’s the correct piece in place,, anything you see that out of place just let me know,,

  • I made a small upgrade of the shoulder servo. The small potentiometer broke, so I use a larger potentiometer with a 6mm shaft. It’s the olny part that I have changed,but I think the same principle can be used on all potentiometers. The new potentioneter can rotate 270 degrees instead of the original 180 degrees, so the servo mapping has to be…En afficher davantage

    • Hello Mats!
      That for sure is a safe pot!!
      But you didn’t use my latest pot holders, that means your parts can no longer fit PivTit and RotTit of the latest version…
      I guess, it’s because you already had PivTit and RotTit printed from the previous version. I like your little potentiometer board option, it’s handy for to simply disconnect.

    good day, I\’m Allen and new to inmoov can\’t wait to get started. I\’ve been reviewing everything, and learning as i go. I have a question about wiring, what size, anything special Ii need to know? one more thing, the parts that I print what % of infill should i use? things for any help

    • Infill %- varies from part to part- most people use the standard- 30% with 3 Perimeters and 3 solid layers, which is good allrounder, personally I use a different setting for every different part, it just depends on what the part is for- the best wire to use is the type that doesn’t catch on fire….lol

    • Remember a very important thing many people tend to forget when slicing the parts.
      When lowering down the resolution and keeping a 3 shell perimeter you also loose strength.
      Say if you print at resolution 0,5mm with a 3mm perimeter with an infill of 30%, it is much stronger than if you print at resolution 0,2mm with a 3mm and an infill of…En afficher davantage

    Here is my version of the forearm. Basically trying the same as Marten. I wanted a straight run for the tendons so I would not need the tensioning spring system. Kept Gael’s servo holder and guide system. Also the wrist drive is in line and not offset which I think makes it a little more robust. Used a slimmed down version of Marten’s…En afficher davantage

    • Looks awesome Perry !
      It’s a nice option to use the default servo’s 🙂

      And are you happy with the mechanical results ?
      For you it’s better to see and feel the results instead of the default setup 🙂

      • Thanks Marten. I like it a lot. There is still a bit of tuning to do but the geometries are good and the wrist rotation is solid. I may still put an inline tension spring in place but not sure. Time will tell if it is needed.

    • Great Perry, I see that there is many inventors around!

    hey Gael,i am also making inmoov as you have seen my previous video of figure starter so now i know arduino,C++ very well so i want to know which language i should to get better confidence on inmoov should i learn Python or Java ??

    • If you will use MyRobotLab, then Python is good, so that you can use the services that already exists. If you want to develop new or change services, you need to learn Java. So my advice is start with Python, then move on to Java. Both Java and C++ are object oriented languages. Since you already know C++ you have a very good start.

    Hello Gael, we received our order yesterday. Thank you for all your support , these products will help a lot my brother in his thesis. I will try to post a video or photos ASAP. thank you again Erica.

    • Great, I’m glad you received the complete hand and forarm in time for your brother!
      Don’t hesitate to post a review about the product on the shop.
      It’s strange but almost nobody does, although it would guide others during their choice.
      Have a good time building!

  • Before I can start with my complete InMoov, I need to upgrade my UM2 filament spool-holder.
    I’ve ordered some COLORFABB_XT spools with 2.2kg filament 🙂
    Not sure if XT filament is the right choice for some mechanical parts.

    • yep… Colorfabb is great stuff, iv tried every brand/type out there ,, i do a lot of printing,,, In Australia i use « Blueprinted » filaments which is pretty good quality for a cheap filament Colorfabb is hard to get here and its bloody expensive..
      I only use PLA you would surprised how tough the stuff when printed correctly – you wont have any…En afficher davantage

      • Thanks for your information.
        I get lucky to live in the Netherlands, the shipping costs are free when I order one spool.
        And with the 2.2kg spools it’s 30% less in price.

        I’m sure I need to play with some settings (temps and max speed).
        I hope to start this evening with some tests 🙂

        • Its worth having a go at trying other other filaments but iv found you really cant beat good quality PLA when its printed correctly,, its hard so its good for gears and moving parts It prints like a dream compered to other filaments,,, and it doesn’t destroy the planet,,,
          I’v been R&D on 3d printers full-time for about 4 years now, mainly on d…En afficher davantage

          • CollorFabb PLA is good material anyway.
            XT can handle a higher temp when it’s printed, this part is a positive thing if InMoof stays for a long day in sunlight.
            So maybe I will use XT for some outside parts and all others with PLA 🙂

    Hi Gael, today arrived Nervo Board. Amazing speed, thank you 🙂
    otherwise InMoov is a great project, and even if I work slowly (it\’s in the long run), I hope it is me with your sites manage to complete.
      Once again, great job. Jan

    • Great to hear that Jan. I do the shipping mainly on Mondays, you happened to have ordered just before I did the packages.
      🙂
      InMoov is a long term project, so take your time and patience along.

    • Cool,,, Nice finger speed (no pun intended), I was worried about the movement speed of inmove because the videos iv seen him in he is moving very slow,, this is good to know he can do rapid movements

    • Ehehe, cool.
      I wanted to buy an Amazon Echo to test the capabilities of their microphone. I wonder if it still listens correctly when all the servos are buzzing.

      • Good question. We’re almost done with torso. Once we get that finished up – I’ll test it out. I use Echo for my smart light bulbs and it works great even with a lot of background noise.

        • Thanks for your reply,
          Servo buzzing is a noise that is in range of voice intonations from what some sound engineer explained. The result can be desastrous on voice recognition system, because the system actually interprets it as somobody speaking.
          Pretty odd isn’t it !

    Seeing Marten’s great work I am rebuilding my forearms as well. Similar concept except I am trying to preserve as much of Gael’s design as possible.

    • Hi Perry,

      It’s nice to see your idea about this.
      I think I will see your complete setup tomorrow, I hope it works well and I can’t wait to see a video !

      this is nice to give room for the tendons to run straight out from the wrist to the Servobed.

      • Thanks Gael, I a trying to adopt some of your design practices to make parts robust and cleanly exported. I have stopped putting a radius on everything (just because they are easy and look cool). I am starting to see the beauty of a simple to work with STL that can be modified by others.
