This Robot Is Currently [In A Contest](Http://Hackaday.Io/Project/945-6Dof-Robot-Arm) And Needs Your Support To Win. Please Upvote It! Based Abb 460 Palletizing Robot, This Machine Uses Parallelograms To Keep The Finger Tip Level With The Floor At All Times. Three Nema17 Stepper Motors Move The Arm. Limit Switches Help It Find Home Position. In This First Version I'M Using 2X Adafruit Motor Shield V2 And An Arduino Uno For The Brain, Which I'Ve Taught To Understand Gcode And Inverse Kinematics. If You Can'T Make The Parts Yourself, I Can Make You A Set Of Parts. I Will Be Releasing Bigger And Better Robot Arms Throughout The Year And I'Ll Do My Best To Keep Them Open Source And Open Hardware. I Want To Do For Robot Arms What Makerbot Has Done For 3D Printing, Minus The Controversy. * [More Information](Http://Www.Marginallyclever.Com/Blog/2014/03/Building-An-Open-Source-3Dof-Palletizing-Robot/). * [Download The Source Code](Http://Github.Com/Marginallyclever/Arm3) * [Video Writing "Hello World!"](Https://Www.Youtube.Com/Watch?V=Y1-Zik8Nosq) **Updates** 2013-01-02: Improved The Design For Ease Of Assembly And Maintenance.
