The current end effector and internal nodule conveyor can accommodate a wide range of nodule sizes from 2 cm to 11 cm diameter. Refinement to the end effector design and conveyor for the production system will be customized to the nodule distribution in the field of operation. Our current v6 concept economic model assumes targeting the largest nodules in the field picking nodules 6.5 cm diameter and larger. An average nodule collection diameter of 8cm is assumed based on available size distribution data.
