Hello, I became aware of a clothes Robot developed in Japan that helps the old ones or somebody with locomotion difficulty. The clothes after having dressed raisin to produce great forks in the people's articulations starting from small incentives of the person's own body. My curiosity was larger in to know which would be the base of energy. Electric or Hydraulics.
If somebody can help myself to know that wonderful project, I thank. Fernando
Dear Fernando:
In general... Electric is good for high speeds, light loads, and short strokes. Pneumatic is good for high speeds, low accuracy, and medium speeds. Hydraulics is good for low speeds, medium accuracy, and heavy loads. Any of these three can be made to cover each other's territory.
I'd expect that a pneumatic system would be simplist/cheapest for a hobbyist.
