Percussive Digging Syste m s for Planetary Research
2010
A percussive digging system has been demonstrated to decrease the amount of down force needed to penetrate a given soil, thus reducing the required reaction loads and robot mass. Preliminary testing of a percussive digging system in compacted lunar regolith simulant, JSC-IA, has demonstrated a 15x (fifteen times) reduction in the
