Power Supply Notice

Due to regional differences, the power adapter is not included. If local customs restrict power supplies, please purchase a compatible adapter locally or order one from our store.

Overview

 

6+1 DOF โ€“ More Ways to Move

An additional joint unlocks flexible configurations so your robot can reach hardโ€‘toโ€‘access 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 realโ€‘world 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 factoryโ€”no 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.
