Wow. We are getting to this point in modern culture where people can now start making their own robotic arms. This is awesome! Fantastic job with putting it all together, and with this tutorial!
I am thinking of a few things: 1) Use ESP Now and send signals between two ESP32s instead of arduino nanos. One would contain the 4 potentiometers while the other remotely controls the arms. 2) Create multiple save presets. 3) Use OpenCR to recognize and move according to one of the presets stored. In terms of the already existing code that you've made, how would you rank the above 3 in the order of complexity?
I am working with some high school students to build this project. I like the fact that we still have to figure a few things out. This turns it from a kit to a learning experience. I am wondering if others caught the error in the circuit diagram? The ground wire (black) that connects the two side reails on the breadboard is shown being connected to VCC. I am assuming that the connection is correct on the PCB.
Please note, this assembly is not quite documented and you have to check pictures and play/pause the video A LOT to try figuring which part goes where. You also need to cut (in half) the horns of all servos to make them fit (it means they cannot be reused afterwards...). I don't know which servo motors you really used but all those on Amazon, Ebay and AliExpress have different mounting holes for the horns (those two screws to mount the horn onto the part), be prepare to drill many times and mess your printed parts; even cut the mounting screws because the base (Eje Central) isn't thick enough and the screws are to long. I just gave up after I bought the 3d model (STL), ordered the PCB and printed all parts. Too bad, I thought this would be a simple project and fun but it ended up being more hassles than fun.
If you can do a 6axis, with real servo feedback and get it to do TCPs, lin and circ movements like a real industrial robot... then you have something you can sell to high schools to get them "real world job ready"
I am planning this as my first „real“ Arduino build, could you please tell me what kind of and how many screws I need? (And if I need something else that’s not on the list) Thx a lot!
Great, you know what i made the same robotic arm with servo motors for my mini project, but mine was fragile cuz i used sunboard to cut cost 😅 Wait I'm sharing the pictures of my robotic arm, check my post section
This is a great video and info for building (subscribed!). The only issue is the one that plagues all of these devices... the servo motors are too weak, and stutter too much. I built a similar robot system several years ago, and was very disappointed in the motor's precision and performance (even though I got the 'best' ones at the time). If anyone has any more recent info on better motors that would work with this build, I would be very interested. I haven't looked at this in quite a while, and there could certainly be better motors available (i hope!). Thanks for any info.
Thanks, looks awesome. I have a more background question, in order of one to be able to do this from scratch, what major/course you need to study? Thanks
I love this. I have bought the files off CULTS and have started printing. Is there a diagram of parts with the filenames as they appear in the zip folder that is downloaded? Would be very useful for colour-coordinating printing.
Anyone using freecad and having issues with displacement when importing all the files at once? I am going through the whole process and trying to get the URDF file from the robot arm but the files combined together upon import do not look like expected robot arm
Nice! But should have not went with the cheapest servos on the planet. Go to your local hobby store and for a few bucks more you can get some nice smooth ones.
Well, unless there is a way to just buy it, without a 3d printer, it is not worth anything. Also, it appears to be a copy of the old Radio Shack arm from the 80s.

We should be careful!! Rome fell shortly after the people learned to create their own robotic arms. We are doomed
@@Algardraug what
I think we've reached that particular point a quite a few years ago. :)
Love your work. have printed the parts and built it and it is all wired up ready to go.
SUBSCRIBED PERIOD!!! I've been waiting a long time for someone to teach me how to do exactly this. 👍👍👍
Excellent! Love the learn and replay feature, very smart
Thanks I was looking for such a video for a long time buddy thanks a lot

Yes!
My version has 3 save slots and sensors. PolyWantsACracker on my channel.
That's so cool! thank you for making us a video.
Bro the voicover is too professional 🤣 its like a TV advert
😂
Felicitaciones desde Chile amigo, en el futuro te escribire para que colaboremos, sigue asi.... Exitos
Buen video, fan número uno de fabri creators
subscribed just after watching the first 30 seconds.
I found a great project for my Daugter and I to make.

Muchas gracias, senor!
that's impressive!
this is amazing.. please try making one using esp32 and have it controlled by ps4 controller using bluepad. that one be intresting.
Would have been absolutely sick using 40 or 80kg servos and a motor at the base instead of a servo. But still pretty cool!
I am planning this as my first „real“ Arduino build, could you please tell me what kind of and how many screws I need? (And if I need something else that’s not on the list)
Thx a lot!
also can you make another version in which you can control the arm with a real arm movements please
Great, you know what i made the same robotic arm with servo motors for my mini project, but mine was fragile cuz i used sunboard to cut cost 😅

Man, I need some help I’m doing the same robot arm and I’m having some problems with it
It would be nice to have Ros2 control hardware interface for this robotic arm.

Thank you..nice video. I am beginner ini arduino, can you make tutorial video in breadboard version?
Excelent 🎉 project🎉
Very nice video :)
At 6:10 where you tighten the screws, how does it still move when you tighten it? Are there bearings underneath?
He didn't tighten them on purpose to move them freely
Thanks, looks awesome. I have a more background question, in order of one to be able to do this from scratch, what major/course you need to study? Thanks
Electrical Engineering on 5V logic is good. It’s what I do, my CAD skills have come from years of projects and practice however
Mechatronics
Subscribed becz you provided code
🥰
nice and cool
WSBK kategorisini de anlatmanızı ve temsilcimizin de sürüş tarzını değerlendirmenizi bekliyorum.
Mix well before marinating.
Does is actually work perfectly like if I was to download the stl files will it give me problems
I love this. I have bought the files off CULTS and have started printing. Is there a diagram of parts with the filenames as they appear in the zip folder that is downloaded? Would be very useful for colour-coordinating printing.
Has anyone printed this yet? How much does 3D printing weigh after printing all the parts? how many grams is this?
Ooooo thank you I also written lots of code for this same project but it worked but didn't work as good as I expected where can I get the code
mega.nz/file/c6QnSTAb#zakSDUY5PteluwKBWswHeiTcHfMYGRd1pFNdV52K6Pg 😊
if i want to cange one of the servo with stepper motor for swing the arm, what i should do ?
I can build a mini factory with these 😆
just awesome
can you modify it and control it with joysticks wireless
Yes you can 💪 good luck solider
Anyone using freecad and having issues with displacement when importing all the files at once? I am going through the whole process and trying to get the URDF file from the robot arm but the files combined together upon import do not look like expected robot arm
I hope you solve that problem soon 😕
Any links to the screw kits you use
Love the video Can you use an UNO R3 for this? instead of the custom board?
Yes! with the same conexions 😊 1:02
The when i save the code using nob its not working its just shaking and blow my servos 2times
May I ask about the dimensions of the PCB-circuit are
Bro what about the servo calibration in which angle we should connect the horns
Nice! But should have not went with the cheapest servos on the planet. Go to your local hobby store and for a few bucks more you can get some nice smooth ones.
awesome
Where can we get this kit from
Is it possible to use arduino uno instead of a nano?
Yes, you can adjust the pins in the diagram
STL link can't be opened. How do I download the file? mybe you can shared the STL Thanks
he doesn't share stl files for free, he sells them on the website
where can i get the 3d printed parts
Please where i can find the design
cant able to purchase the file.. any upi link to buy directly
can you control that robot using bluetooth comunication with android phone/some app software from android
Eine app steuerung für unterwegs wäre sehr gut
Bro how to update this code to control 6 servo motors, please tell
same question
@@syakitmc2813 I will soon make a version with 6 servomotors and potentiometers, the code is very similar.
Okk FABRIcreator bro I will be waiting for your next video on controlling 6 servo motors Thank you for replying 😇😇😇😇😇👍👍👍👍
Train him to unplug the power supply
take my money
where are you from man
Es de Perú.
if this uses kinematics, its not gonna be trivial

I wanted to watch... but hell no to AI voiceovers
Well, unless there is a way to just buy it, without a 3d printer, it is not worth anything. Also, it appears to be a copy of the old Radio Shack arm from the 80s.
It wouldn’t be worth anything to me if you had to just buy it
Not to mention that you can have it printed for you
this is too simple
