Worked on the UBC-Snowbots/Arm repository over two months, focusing on mechanical design and hardware integration for robotic arm assemblies. Delivered three features using CAD modeling and mechanical engineering skills, including stabilizing gripper end effector pads, aligning assembly holes, and refining the A3 Moteus Driver Holder placement to improve structural integrity. In February, introduced and repositioned heated inserts on the big gripper end effector board to enhance tool changer reliability and thermal stability. All changes were implemented with traceable commits in CAD and SLDPRT formats, emphasizing maintainable design, improved assembly fit, and increased uptime without introducing or fixing critical bugs.
February 2026 monthly summary for UBC-Snowbots/Arm focused on hardware integration and reliability improvements to the big gripper end effector. Delivered a targeted optimization by introducing heated inserts on the end effector board and repositioning them to enhance tool changer performance under a range of operating conditions. The changes improve thermal stability, reduce mechanical variance, and increase field uptime.
