Pneumatic Arm

May 30, 2007

Mrs. Chenoweth brought back in the robotics from the other room.

The pneumatic arm has been started by two other groups of 4th graders. We are hoping to finish it today.

A compressor will make it easier to keep the air pressure supply.
The air tank can hold enough air for motion through all three switches.
There have been many more projects than are on display.
They show off to the class that the arm can go left, right; up, down; and open, close.
It picked up a tire and dropped it off.
