Fabricatable tools is a collection of end effectors, tools and extra hardware that can be made using a standard set of existing computer-controlled machines; with minimal use of speciality parts, processes or skills. The type of machines needed may include CNC-milling, lasercutter, and 3d-printers. We want to enable students to build their own tools, to expand their own capabilities and develop their research faster.
All the tools are documented in detail inside each repository (click on each link for more details)
Link to all the endeffector 3d models(to use for robotic visualization)
End Effector to extrude 3 lines of filamente to output a 2-3mm thick plastic at around 500gr and hour CAPABLE OF NON PLANAR PRINTING This is due to a really thin noozle point
End Effector to mount on robot arms and print with industrial adhesive dispensers of 300-400ml

End Effector to mount on robo arms and show the 3 axis movements to new users (designed for Kuka KR16-2) To modify for other robots looks for the flange design in this same repo.
End Effector to extrude pellets at around 500 to 700gr and hour

You can download the files for individual machine. If you improve on the designs you can share them back with a pull request or send it by email to us (we will love that you contribute with your upgrades or modifications)
Feel free to expand and improve all sections of this project and wiki.
- Save all the images in the "img" folder
- Save everything in just one rhino clean file
- Save the stl files separetly
- Add documentation and step in the "readme" file
- Document in markdown
- all the files in mm
- make a B.O.M (bill of material) with all the hardware and components needed
For people with no time or knowledge to build his own machine we recommed this affordable hardware
- Buy your own low cost 3Dprinter-Ender3 200$
- Buy your own medium cost 3Dprinter - Prusa i3MK3S 800$
- Buy your own low cost LASERCUTTER - (We don´t recommend any low cost chinese lasercutter as we consider them really dangerous and without any safety mechanism)
- Buy your own medium cost LASERCUTTER 4000$
- Buy your own low cost CNC machine 3018PRO 190$
- Buy your own medium cost CNC machine-Shapeoko 1200$
