Automated electrochemical testing system that combines a modified 3D printer with electrochemical measurement capabilities. The purpose of this robot is to enable high-throughput electrochemical research under $400.
The system features:
- Modified 3D printer frame for automated positioning
- 3D printed bath design and electrode holders
- Servo-controlled grippers for electrode manipulation
- Programmable fluid handling system with peristaltic pumps
- Integrated potentiostat for electrochemical measurements
- Set up the hardware components according to the Mechanical and Electronics documentation
- Install the required software dependencies
- Configure the device connections in
devices.json - Run the system using the main.py Python script
Below is an example of the data collected by the system:
