Overview
6+1 DOF โ More Ways to Move
An additional joint unlocks flexible configurations so your robot can reach hardโtoโaccess areas, avoid obstacles with ease, and maintain smooth, consistent motion. The expanded inverse kinematics solution space significantly boosts the success rate of motion planning and control, improving efficiency in realโworld applications.
Dual Brushless Key Joints
Powered by 50kg brushless servos on two primary joints for stronger torque output and precise motion control.
No Calibration, Ready to Learn
Preconfigured at the factoryโno calibration and no servo parameter tuning required. Just unbox, plug in, and start manipulating right away.
One-Button Hover Hold
The Leader Arm (Violin) handle includes a dedicated button. Press it to hold the arm at any position instantly. Great for quick pauses, fine adjustments, and capturing key moments during demonstrations.
Parallel Gripper (Replaceable Fingertips)
Parallel gripper with a 65 mm opening and a linear rail design for smooth, precise motion. Open-source, 3D-printable fingertips allow for easy customization of the grip for various objects.
Metal Frame + 3D-Printed Structure
A rigid metal frame combined with reinforced 3D-printed structural components, featuring needle roller bearings at key joints for smooth, accurate, and repeatable motion. Designed to maintain stable positioning under load.
