Part List

The entire Benchmark has been designed with Onshape and is publicly available here. The following section contains a detailed part list with 3D files, drawings and material information.

Base

base assembly
Part Quantity Describtion/Note STL/Drawing Material
Foundation Plate 1 plate for mounting the 3D-printed base plate
(any even plate (e.g. wooden board) can be used)
Drawing wood
Alignment Module 1 3D-printed part to align the Foundation Plate with the base of a Franka Emika Robot STL Extrudr PLA NX2 MATT white
Base Plate Bottom 4 STL Extrudr PLA NX2 MATT white
Base Plate Top 1 1 STL Extrudr PLA NX2 MATT white
Base Plate Top 2 1 STL Extrudr PLA NX2 MATT white
Base Plate Top 3 1 STL Extrudr PLA NX2 MATT white
Base Plate Top 4 1 STL Extrudr PLA NX2 MATT white
Base Connector 9 height has to be adjusted depending on the offset between the foundation plate and the base of the robot. The goal is to have a 10mm parallel offset.
