Week2

this week started by connecting the electrical circuit and connecting the 3d printed pump parts.

We previously showed the steps of printing the pump using the 3d printer:look week 1.

We used two different motors the one that appeared to be the best was the dc motor unfortunately we burned the Controller as we were supposed to remove the upper part before turning on the power source.

another problem was that the motor did not move easily so we used some grease we also change the tube to a smaller dimensioned one but it didn’t work the way we hoped

we also tried an old pump ,a one that was previously designed to make pizza but unfortunately the middle part broke so were aiming to redesign the pump and try again . but before that we printed a one exactly the same and tried it . which showed us exactly where we should fix while designing the pump.
