DESIGNING AND BUILDING A SERIAL ROBOTIC ARM WITH FOUR DEGREES OF FREEDOM

Florin COVACIU, Anca-Elena IORDAN

Abstract


The paper presents the design and manufacturing process for a 4 degrees of freedom robotic arm. The robotic arm was designed using the Fusion 360 program, after which the components of the robotic arm were manufactured using 3D printer. For the 3D printing environment, the ideaMaker printer software was used. After assembling the robotic arm, tests for functionality were performed by actuating the stepper motors that are attached to the robot arm.


Key words: degree of freedom, robotic arm, CAD model, design, 3D printer
