Summary

The project aims to mechanize the traditional art of hand-pulling noodles to make it more accessible and consistent. This was done using the Chebyshev Lambda mechanism. The focus is on designing a mechanism that replicates the intricate hand movements involved in noodle pulling while preventing dough tearing. Preliminary design ideas and analysis tasks are outlined to guide the fabrication process. Ultimately, the goal is to create a noodle-pulling robot that maintains the integrity of the craft while improving efficiency and accessibility.
