| - | The test tube roller is an open source lab equipment design. This design was created by Karlin Yeh and Wilfrido Castillo and a version of it is in the Cooper Union. This design is made from cardboard, .125" acrylic, a few electronic components and a DC motor.
| + | <br><br> |
| | | | |
| - | == Build ==
| + | This test tube roller is a simple and cost-effective test tube roller. It is made from 6mm acrylic, cardboard, a DC motor, a potentiometer, and one custom 3D printed hub. The potentiometer allows for variable speeds by limiting current to the motor. |

| | | | |
| | + | <h3>Assembly</h3> |
| | | | |
| - | Assembly
| + | <ol> |
| | + | <li>Download the original CAD files for the “motor_front” and “hub” and adjust the motor mount pattern and motor hub diameter to match the dimensions of your motor </li> |
| | + | <li>Laser cut dxf files and your modified “motor_front” plate</li> |
| | + | <li>3D print the motor hub</li> |
| | + | <li>Screw together frame and motor. Use lock nuts on pivot joints</li> |
| | + | <li>Solder the power supply to the motor with the power switch and potentiometer in series</li> |
| | + | <li>Wrap rubber bands around test tubes before inserting into hub. This is to prevent slipping as the cardboard friction fit can sometimes slip over time</li> |
| | + | </ol> |
| | | | |
| - | The acrylic pieces are assembled to make the frame with screws. | + | <h3>Final Assembly</h3> |

| | + | <em>Completed Assembly</em><br>The design was mainly based around the DC motor since it was the only one that could be used at the moment. Future designs can be modified to fit other DC motor's.<br><br> |
| | + | <img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2014/f/f4/CU_OpenRoller_parts2.png" width="400"/><br> |
| | + | The hub attaches the tube holder to the motor's shaft. The hub was customized to the diameter of the shaft; it was then press fitted onto the preheated shaft to ensure a solid fit.<br> |
| | + | <img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2014/3/36/CU_OpenRoller_parts3.png" width="400" /><br> |
| | + | A second plate made of foam board was attached to provide additional support to the tubes.<br> |
