It can easily accommodate linear movement in three axes, and rotation around a fourth axis. However, one has to add a motion controller to perform rotation around more than one axis. Cartesian robots ...

The step-by-step rotation of a molecular gear mounted on an atomic-scale axis is now controlled by a scanning tunnelling microscope. Gears are microfabricated down to diameters of a few micrometres.

Building a seven axis industrial robot arm in your home workshop is no small feat yet the robot arm is looking fantastic even in its development stages. Watch this video on YouTube.

Naturally, a completely overkill eight-axis motion control robot was the solution. Video embedded below the break. The scale of the build is something to behold.

[Dan Royer] is taking some inspiration from Prusa’s business and is trying to build the same sort of enterprise around open source 3D printable robot arms. His 6 axis robot arm is certainly a… ...

Festo explains that the Multi-Axis Drive (MAD) controller is “URCap software (a Java-based plugin that integrates in to PolyScope, the graphical programming interface of Universal Robots) that allows ...

It is a camera, an industrial PC, a touch panel, and a 6-axis servo motor, connected to some very big sequencers, motion units, and servo amplifiers It can rotate its arms 90 degrees in 0.009 seconds ...
