Mechanical Robotic Arm Chassis Kit (6DOF) (Un-Assembled)

Mechanical Robotic Arm Kit Overview

Assemble a versatile mechanical robotic arm kit designed for makers, students, and engineers. This 6DOF robotic arm chassis combines anodized aluminum brackets, high-precision gears, and hardened steel shafts to deliver a robust platform for learning, prototyping, and custom experiments.

Key Features

• Six degrees of freedom chassis providing human-like reach and articulation
• Precision-cut gears for smooth, accurate motion and repeatability
• Reinforced steel joints and hardened shafts for long-term durability
• Payload capacity up to 500 g for small grippers, sensors, and tools
• Quick-release mounts and modular link design for fast reconfiguration
• Comes unassembled to teach mechanics, kinematics, and practical assembly skills

Materials and Build Quality

Frame and Brackets

High-grade anodized aluminum brackets provide a lightweight but rigid frame that resists corrosion and keeps overall weight low for better actuator efficiency.

Shafts, Bearings, and Gears

• Hardened steel shafts for accurate rotation under load
• Steel bearings for whisper-quiet movement and reduced wear
• High-precision metal gears for consistent power transfer and minimal backlash

Performance and Specifications

• Degrees of freedom: 6 (6DOF)
• Maximum recommended payload: 500 g
• Materials: anodized aluminum, hardened steel, precision metal gears, steel bearings
• Mounting: multiple threaded rods and quick-release points for servos and sensors

What’s Included

• Aluminum brackets and link plates
• Steel bearings and hardened shafts
• High-precision gears and spacers
• Threaded rods, screws, and fasteners for complete assembly
• Step-by-step instruction guide and assembly diagrams

Assembly and Customization

This unassembled robotic arm kit is ideal for hands-on learning. The included guide walks you through each step, from sorting hardware to final calibration. The modular design allows you to:

• Swap servos or motors to match torque and speed requirements
• Adjust link lengths and joint spacing for different reach profiles
• Mount sensors, grippers, and end-effectors using standard mounting holes

Applications and Project Ideas

• Robotics and mechatronics coursework and labs
• Prototype assembly tasks and small pick-and-place experiments
• AI and computer vision integration for object manipulation
• Hobbyist projects, art installations, and interactive displays

Technical Details and Compatibility

The chassis is compatible with common hobby servos and many industrial micro servos when using the adapter brackets provided. Threaded mounting points and standard hole patterns make it simple to attach sensors, controllers, and custom PCBs. Recommended for users familiar with basic tools and soldering when adding electronics.

Story Behind the Kit

Inspired by late-night tinkering, our engineers developed this mechanical robotic arm kit to spark curiosity and practical learning. Dozens of prototypes were tested on workbenches until the final design moved with the grace of a human hand.
