With the help of a electro magnet, this fast moving homemade SCARA robot has a spirited style! We just love those jaunty elbow movements. Normally, SCARA robots are used in an industrial setting and only have a single arm.They’re great for pick and place as well as certain types of material handling. They can use electromagnets like the homemade example we found in this video, or they might use a variety of different end effector or EOAT (end of arm tooling) options. A powerful suction cup is another popular choice.
BTW, SCARA stands for Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm, which is a lot less cute than those fast moving elbows in the video below.
