“…In the original CaPaMan prototype, all the components are machined from metallic parts, and industrial-grade motors are required for operations. The following improvement from 2017 [21], which is shown in Figure 1b, kept this structure; with 3D printing development, it became possible and expedient to change the material of the mechanism to plastic. Smaller and cheaper motors could also be used to operate, because less torque is needed for the smaller masses.…”

The improved solution of L-CaPaMan design is elaborated with solutions for low-cost lightweight features. A new prototype is presented as a result of design improvements by using market components and 3D printing manufacturing. The new prototype as L-CaPaMan (Light CaPaMan) is characterised with new components for a new slider solution and light-structure links. The prototype construction is discussed up to a testing layout for design validation and operation characterization. Results of testing are discussed to outline the operation performance of L-CaPaMan by using Arduino controller with basic sensors for motion and action monitoring.
