Description
Ever wanted to 3D print your own exoskeleton arms? Well now you can.
What you are downloading is the result of countless hours of test printing to give you the most freedom of movement whilst still feeling strong and solid. I feel that this model brings us one step closer to Matt Damon's exoskeleton suit from Elysium. All of the parts were printed on my Up Plus 2 which has a build area of 14cm x 15cm x 15cm. Please note : This is only a digital download (STL file) used on a 3-D printer, not a physical item.

Hi, awesome design thanks for it ;) , i've buy the kit on the old 3Dprintlt site and it's not possible to download the file anymore, i have proof of the purchase, how can i get it ?
Sorry this took 2 years to respond, haven't checked Pinshape in a long time! Send me an email to australia3dprintit@gmail.com and I'll send the files to you.
Hello, Alex. I'm the mother of a child with cerebral palsy. I think your invention can help us a lot in rehabilitation. Have you already made a robotic version of the whole hand? Can you help us?
Hi there, I only design this as a recreational costume. I have made a motorised version of the hand, however, it still very basic and can only open and close. Maybe with the help of a physio it could be adapted. I don’t know how much work it would be.
Hey this is an awesome design and wanted to share an unusual use i came up with for it. I'm on a science Olympiad team and my event is robot arm. I'm thinking (probably doing) about printing this and the hands then hooking potentiometers to the joints and using it to control my robot arm by having my robot arm mimic my exoskeleton arm's movement.
Hey, It's great to hear people applying their own uses to this project. Every time I hear a story like this it makes me want to keep working on it! When you complete it can you send a photo or video to australia3dprintit@gmail.com. Thanks!
Very interesting work. I wonder if it can easily integrate some sensors on joints and rollers to get enough information to reconstruct a virtual body and be used as a VR controller. A full suit would be more amazing as well.
This is really good. Recently it is discovered that 3D printed prosthetic can help a great deal in reducing the cost and increasing the customizability. Though 3D printed exoskeletons might need some more development to actuate them effectively but as of now it can help quadriplegics who can't walk or move due to reasons like partially paralysis, accidents etc. There are people who are really in need of such innovation. It's a great idea.
Any chance you could include a link in the description to the instructions on how to assemble this? Great design!
Hi Nick can you tell me if the link in the description is working for you? If not the link is: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B59abIYtgFR5a0dqb2JTYTBNV2c/view?usp=sharing
Thanks! I'm planning on designing a motorized version of the hands and eventually the arms.
Holy— any plans to design more pieces to the suit?!
At the minute I'm working on a motorized version of the hands which will be controlled by muscle signals but eventually I will do the full suit.
This looks so crazy!
Thanks! It would look even better with a paint job.
