The WidowX Robot Arm is Interbotix Labs’ entry level arm offering for the MX series of DYNAMIXEL
Servos.The MX series actuators provide a full 360 degree freedom of movement in the base, ultra-high resolution
of 4096 positions, user-definable PID parameters, and extremely smooth interpolation. The hefty MX-64 shoulder servo gives the WidowX very strong lifting strength in a slim frame. If you are looking for medium lifting strength and desire smooth control, high accuracy and repeatability the WidowX is a great mid-level arm choice.
Product Features:
- Industry Leading MX-64, MX-28 and AX-12 Servos
- Solid 14cm Ball Bearing Base
- Extremely Rigid Boxed ABS Construction
- Arbotix Robocontroller for Onboard Processing
- Custom Parallel Gripper
- Mounting Brackets for Cameras & Sensors
Kit Includes:
A rugged ABS boxed frame design and 14cm
diameter ball bearing rotational base ensures
maximum rigidity and accuracy. Optional
wrist rotate allows for up to 5 degrees of freedom,
along with a custom designed parallel
gripper for high precision and maximum gripping
strength.
The WidowX Robot Arm has up to a 41cm horizontal reach and 55cm of vertical reach. At a
10cm reach it can lift up to 800g, and at 30cm up to 400g. The gripper itself has a rated holding
strength of up to 500g, while the wrist itself can lift up to 500g horizontally. (400g if using wrist
rotate).
MX DYNAMIXELs support up to 360 degrees of
motion, which results in an extraordinary
range of motion and reach on the WidowX
. Temperature monitoring, positional
feedback, as well as voltage levels, load, and
compliance settings are user accessible as
well.
The onboard Arbotix Robocontroller
can be programmed using the Arduino
IDE or custom firmware, providing
8 digital and analog IOs, Xbee
wireless or USB connectivity, and a
powerful ATMega644p capable of handling
Inverse Kinematics code onboard.
