Testing with <20ml of water 💧 . Good results!. The next muscles will be smaller and faster.

Another batch of muscle bladders is ready for assembly. Should have a nice set of muscles complete by tomorrow.

Successful first test of our contracting fluid-driven artificial muscles. I've got several more small ones to build for the hands, and then I'm cooking up some BIG ones for the arm. 🦾

Testing the smallest bladder first. Works very well, with no leaks! Off-the-shelf barbed fittings are used for connecting to supply lines.

Just finished casting some fluid bladders for contracting muscles I'll be testing out. They turned out quite well.

I am highly considering ordering several of these systems to fully automate our muscle and robot production. 👀. Let's hope the cost is reasonable.

Securing some supply lines in a fresh batch of artificial muscles. Testing the first dual-line variant, too! One supply line, one exhaust line. I'm also trying a few new wrapping patterns on the muscles. May affect the maximum range of motion.

Very lightweight, too. 5g per assembled muscle.
