With all Aluminum Body and 6 degrees of freedom powered by high torque metal digital servos with force-control supported, 7Bot has rugged reliability with exceptional performance in torque and speed, even close to the industry robot arm.
We offer two kinds of end-effectors for different applications and extensions, the Vacuum Cup Gripper is the basic accessory. It is completely assembled on the Arm. While the Two-Finger Gripper is the extra accessory for more applications.
As the 7Bot Arm is modeled after industrial robot arm, how about making a real automatic assembly line on your desk? The answer is definitely yes. Using our computer vision sample codes, you can adjust the parameters to build a real automatic assemble line on your desk.
