Shaking Mechanism 3D model

The shaking mechanism is based on the 4 linkages mechanism, The geared DC motor drives the spur gears to rotate in a certain direction and a certain speed controlled through the DC motor encoder.

At the same time, the proximity optical sensor detects the position of the Aluminum block to stop movement at the same position every time.

the mechanism based designed as a Lego structure to be easy to change position in the bed of the gantry liquid handling mechanism.

This mechanism is part of full automated liquid handling system as shown in the shared video.

Take a moment to see the shared video and see the mechanism fabrication and its performance in the whole system.
