Robot Name 🤖

ergoCub 1.3 S/N:002

Request/Failure description

While doing some teleoperation test some fingers stopped working.

Detailed context

The left index has a tendon issue since the motor was at limit, but the finger fully open. The right finger instead is bent

Additional context

We did not push so hard on the table, but the pinky fingers is the one getting closest to the table for any power grasp.

How does it affect you?

We had to stop running experiments

Hello! I disassembled the little finger's connecting rod and it was quite bent 😅:

However, I managed to straighten it successfully in the bench vice:

Unfortunately, the phalanx was also broken, so I had to replace it.

I also replaced the index finger tendon and everything is working properly now.

Closing! ✅
