Agenda and discussion notes

 OverviewGabe
  • Bill asked about the current system, Denis said it is ready for us to unscrew the arm, and we can bring it to the open space of Brinkman Lab. We might need to plan to do this before winter break.

CuttingEric
  • Question from Denis on blade integration. He wants to know if we could use another bevel blade instead of chisel
  • Curious about bending these blades, might need to 3d printed triangular piece to place x-acto blades on
  • Question from Dr. DeBartolo on cutting feasibility and testing

HeatingMitch

Integrated DesignMax, Mitch, Eric, Gabe
  • Make sure it is easily assembled
  • Housing should might be changed from sheetmetal due to difficulty of manufacturing. We should maybe change material to 3d printing to allow easier manufacturing.
