We have used two different tube sizes: | We have used two different tube sizes: | ||
- | - **4mm Outer Diameter => 4mm Inner Diameter** - These were the most wildly used tubes. They would connect to the actuators, to valves and to the thinner edges of [[soft-robotics:splitters|splitters]]. | + | - **5mm Outer Diameter => 3mm Inner Diameter** - These were the most wildly used tubes. They would connect to the actuators, valves and pumps. |
- | - **6mm Outer Diameter => 4mm Inner Diameter** - These would connect to the pumps and the thicker edge of [[soft-robotics:splitters|splitters]]. | + | - **4mm Outer Diameter => 2mm Inner Diameter** - Those are used when a thinner tubing is necessary, for example in small actuators. |
+ | - **6mm Outer Diameter => 4mm Inner Diameter** - Those can be used when a larger throughput of air is required. | ||
