    You can print by yourself all the frame´s parts, but if you want to get them from us, just tick the box below. We have used High Resistance Ingeo 870 PLA filament (+info here) to print the parts, cleaned and tolerance tested them all so you will not have any problems assembling your SCARA Robotic arm

    • 60 $

    Add 3x NEMA 17 motors + Cables

    You can use any compatible NEMA17 motor to create your SCARA Robotic Arm, but if you want to save the hassle of getting custom cables from somewhere else and want to get them fast, get the motors from jjRobots ticking the box below

    • 39.233637 $

    + 3x Stainless Steel 250mm Ø8mm round bars

    Cutting steel is not an easy task. We have measured, cut and deburred the ends of these stainless steel (grade 304) rounds bars so you do not have to do it. If you want a set of 3, just tick the box below.

    • 15.693455 $

    + 1x LIDAR distance sensor & i2C cable     

    This laser sensor will allow the Gripper to know the distance from its base to the ground plane, providing a precise height value of any object located below the gripper. Accuraccy +-3mm. Update rate: 20 Hz

    • 9.5 $

    I will need a power supply too

    We will add a reliable 12V, 2A power supply to your order if you select one below (Pick a plug type)

great robot and exceptional support
Posted by on

Bought this robot with no previous experience in the field. It was fun to assemble it (very easy) and learning the details on the way. Great the option to be able to connect to the board with USB or Wifi, gives a lot of flexibility. Robot arm is precise and fast, can be controlled with python by simple commands. Direct joint control or world coordinate X,Y,Z can be used, the reverse kinematic is solved on the Devia board. Also trajectories can be specified…. all you need to learn, make experience and develop great projects!

I got the prototype as contributor
Posted by on

First, I have to clarify that I got the alpha version of this robot. I have been mounting jjRobots since the first one. Long version short: this is the best Robotic Arm you can get in the market. OPEN source, 3D printer-made (most parts), Python written, and Arduino based. It has everything. And the electronics can be used in many other projects.

5/5
Fun and educational
Posted by on

We got 2 units (with out 3D printed parts) and everything just went PERFECT. The support team was always there and they have modified the assembly guide after our comments.

5/5
the 3D printed parts are simply AWESOME
Posted by on

I love the robot and everything but I have to appreciate the quality of the 3D parts SET. I read that they were printed with Ingeo PLA instead the regular one but, boy… Check the photo below. Not a single layer shift/ over or under-extrusion. I have been printing 6 years but never got this close to a perfect printing.

 

5/5
Plenty of possibilities
Posted by on

I am just printing a longer arm to use with the Robot. Being a 3D printed robot makes it extremely modifiable.

Great SCARA type Robotic Arm
Posted by on

Fast shipping and fantastic robotic Arm. Sorry for the mistake fulfilling the delivery address field!

5/5
Even precise with plastic parts
Posted by on

Sorry for my English. I got only the electronic and hardware elements. No motors. No steel bars. I got them locally. And I can see jjRobots designed the robot to be used almost with any configuration. Thanks!

5 stars
Posted by on

I bought the elements separately (Devia board, motors) and at the end, it was a mistake. But fixable! The cables makes the difference and all the different elements involved in the project, I think should be “supervised” by someone who know. I mean, the aliexpress items come with certain tolerances and that made setting everything up a little bit harder than it should. I am speaking of my case, I never got the jjRobots full kit.

5/5
The third robot I create from jjrobots
Posted by on

This was my 3rd robot created from jjRobot. I just got the devia control board as I got everything I needed from the previously purchased kits :-D. This is a top notch Robotic Arm. For a 3D printed robot…it is extremely fast and precise

5/5
The mechanical design is flawless but...
Posted by on

I got the “almost” full kit: power supply, steel bars, motors, everything but the 3D parts and LIDAR sensor (out of stock) and I have to say that I needed to step on some bearings so I could introduce them properly. I was aware of the tolerance requirement with the 3D parts but even printing slowly It was a little bit hard. In the KITs defense I will state that I was using cheap PLA filament and there was burr everywhere, so I can not blame anyone but me. Beside that, I really like the robot. I will upload a video soon.

Add the suction cup actuator
Posted by on

I REALLY like the robot but I think it needs a suction cup. It will add a lot of potential grabbing small elements with plain surfaces. I will come back when it is ready and give the project 5 stars

I did not know I needed the 3D parts to complete the KIT
Posted by on

Everything was fine but I thought the 3D printed parts were optional. 4/5

I got it after 10 days NOT 3
Posted by on

I like the robot but first: -It took me more than 3 hours to assemble it (not 2 as stated) – I got it after 10 days, not 3 as offered in the checkout. So I will give the KIT 3 stars

3/5
I took more than expected to get here
Posted by on

The robot is working. The software is powerful and easy to use but the packet took 4 more days than declared in the checkout. So 3 stars

Hi Cillian. Sorry for that, as your payment was done via wire transfer, it took 3 days to get to our bank. Once received we sent the packet right away. A confirmation email was sent.

This is the motor used in every jjRobots Project. You liked the motors which came with your kit and want another pack of two? Did you like its sturdiness / easy plug-in connector (forget to solder every time you have to change the cable length) ? This is the perfect stepper motor for MAKERs and Robots enthusiasts.

Pick a custom length cable for each motor for free!

DEVIA Robotics control board FRONT
Devia Robotics Control board v1.0
Devia Robotics Control board v1.0

This is the Control board that will help you to create your Robotics Project without the hassle of integrating different modules. The DEVIA control board has been used to conceive all the jjRobot projects. We have opted to create a board with enough sensors/ports and outputs but keeping 100% Arduino compatibility.

This board has a powerful ARM M0 processor and will be recognized by the Arduino IDE as the Arduino ZERO with NATIVE USB PORT. Just plug and play! Designed in Europe and Assembled by mrobotics in USA.

Features:

  • ARM Cortex M0 processor (ATSAMD21G18) (the same mounted on the powerful Arduino Zero)
  • ESP12 Wi-Fi module integrated (programmable via GPIO pads on the back of the board)
  • MPU ICM 20600 6 axis (High Performance 3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis accelerometer module)
  • AUX OUTPUT: Controllable Voltage regulator (up to 12V, 1A)
  • Vin Power Jack (the board accepts from 9 to 15V DC)
  • 3x stepper motors outputs
  • 4x servo outputs (up to 1.5A)
  • Customizable button “A” (can be used to change the behaviour of the robot, pause it, change internal parameters…)
  • Reset button
  • i2C port
  • SPI port (perfect to control RGB LED strips)
  • UART port
  • SENSOR port (Analog, Digital, Ground and +3.3V)
  • GPIO on the back of the board
  • Micro USB Port 
  • Arduino UNO footprint
  • 100% Arduino ZERO compatibility. Just connect the board to the computer, and the Arduino IDE will recognize it as the Arduino ZERO board -Native USB port-

* All the headers already soldered
