The Bronze Arm robot is a 6-axis mini-lathe robot designed with a combination of linear and rotational axes for precise movements.
Configuration: Three linear axes (X, Y, Z), one rotational axis, and a gripper as the end effector.
Gripper: SMC LEHZ20LK2-10B, with a 10 mm stroke and medium gripping force, powered by 24V DC.
Control: Arduino with TB6600 drivers for stepper motors, and custom firmware for motion and gripper control.
Components: Framework, stepper motors, power supply, end stops, and gripper integration for precise operation.
Workflow: Robot homes, picks the part using the gripper, performs machining or positioning tasks, and releases the part.
Applications: Suitable for lathe automation, assembly lines, and prototyping tasks.
