Direct drive articulated arm supports lean automation
Complementing its robolink W low-cost, wire-driven modular robotics kit, igus has introduced robolink D – a direct drive articulated joint kit. Currently available in three joint sizes – 20, 30 and 50 – the new development is based on self-lubricated PRT slewing ring bearings, with the joints driven by a worm gear drive and NEMA 17 or 23 stepper motor.
