I hope you enjoyed this video and learned something new! If you'd like to support me making more content like this, please consider supporting me on Patreon: www.patreon.com/howtomechatronics
sir please make for 3D printer
Can i get the source code??
Try to convert the same into 3d printer
Sir,,,I have copied and pasted different version of Configuration to Merlin folder.Will different version of Configuration will make error? and also I can't find written code of Stepper motor...
This channel have come a long way in terms of video quality and other aspects and I've learned a lot of things here and I'd love it if you could recreate your old arduino basic tutorials, Thanks for what you've shared with all of us and I hope you'll keep going
All your projects have been an inspiration for me and I'm currently developing my own smartphone controlled car, thanks for the amazing ideas!!! Great work!!!
At this rate, your SCARA robot will be making your meals for you soon enough!
haha, that's a good idea, I will put that in my to-do list! 😃
Good Job man! Thank you for not only inspirng but also sharing your projects with the online community :))
That looks like a fun project indeed. This inspires interesting ideas for me thanks!
Thanks Jeremy, glad you liked it! Cheers :)
Oh hey nice to see ya here
my favourite channel on youtube. Dont stop teaching us
Incredible. Hopefully I can attain 20 percent of your skill at some point
It’s great that you keep your collaboration with Dassault Systèmes to produce your legendary content. I can tell you that your rover video has had a great success among DS Enovia engineers. 👍
Amazing but simple projects!
These are projects that I can do with my son!
Congratulations for the excellent channel and content!
Thank you very much!
Wow holy crap that's amazing! You did an incredible job, and it looks totally professional! That is damn impressive
Thanks!
Waoooooo!Your design is really really AMAZING!
Outstanding! You are my new favourite TH-camr!!!
Thank you so much 😀
Finally u did it . Good luck man
Thanks man! You rock! I've been hoping for solid works to be more affordable.
Thank you!
fantastic, as always! thank you for going into so much detail, i really learned a lot and feel like i could follow along. always amazing when you post a video! see you next time!
Great to hear!
You could apply s-curves to the motion to control a lil bit the backlach of the belts and smooth out the trajectory.
Really appreciate your efforts 👍👍👍👍👍🌻
Another great project,
best greetings from germany, Wolfgang
Many thanks! Cheers!
Incredible! This must be one of a kind? I've never seen this type of laser before, this has capabilities that no other laser has :-)
Glad to hear it, thank you!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing.
You should teach up how to make a 3D printer/extruder.
I love your content. Great resource. 🤙🏾
Bro u r working hard superb 👍
Thank you for your informative video
Excellent guide, good work.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I had been eyeing this robot for a while but never could come up with a real use, now you have and now I'll probably have to build one... Maybe lol thanks
hehe have fun building on! :)
My fav chanel. Nice project
Thanks!
Your project is amazing, I'm very impressed. And post to anyone who wants to make a robot like that. It's impressive. Congratulations and success.
Glad to hear it, thank you!
@@HowToMechatronics I am honored for your return. If I had conditions I would have a robot like that.
am always amazed by smart people :)
Hi
Thank you very much for all the information. I have a question. Your Solidworks 2D drawing should prepare for zero and home point, and you had to look upside down so that, for example, the scara offset x and y will be 200, -120. What if you see the Solidworks drawing exactly right. Then the x + axis is to the right, the y + axis to the top and the z - axis from the screen to the top (the z axis will be the same). If we write the coordinates with this perspective to Marlin and change the limit switch pin to "+" except for the z axis (z axis still in "-"), should this work (x, y, z home direction is still -1 because we are approaching limit switches, but for positive direction this time for x and y)?
hello, i am having problem impleminting the offset and the home position relative to the zero bed can you explain how did you figure it out. thanks
Wow , it's very interesting project
great man great work
Wow...finally !! I did this scara robot but the software didnt works well, i tried others options like Grbl but without sucess...my first goal is using scara for laser cnc and now, u really help me !!! Tks a lot.
Yeah, it took me some time to make this, I hope it will be helpful. Have fun!
İncredible very nice project congratulation👍
Thank you very much!
Yessss!! Thank you
Excellent project 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Can marlin support a dual setup? Sticking a laser module to my 3d printer extruder assembly would allow me to do both, without having to switch hardware?
Fantastic design. How would the electronic part be changed, if you had to drive NEMA 34 controllers instead of small NEMA 17 ones?
Given the many degrees of freedom of the robot, would it be possible to engrave ona 3d surface of an object, like the sides of a cone?
Fun and educational 👍
I can't understand what size of the working area turned out in the end, if measured from the base of the manipulator?
Great content
Nice video, thanks :)
You are the best of the best!
how much weight can support the arm?
do you think i can swap a more powerful laser module that weights 360 g?
So great !thanks Bro !!!!
Nice concept
Hi there,
I tried to test your engraver and encountered the following problem. When I try to home all axis, the Y homes nicely(while the X is moving away from the endstop), but then the X skips entirely and proceeds to the Z axis. If I try to home the X manually, it works perfectly. Do you have an idea, why that could be? Thanks in advance!
Amazing!!! You are a genius!
Thank you! 😊
Hi, I need to read data of battery and show level in a display, but I wish to show in percent instead just volts. I’ve a eletric motorcycle, and the display show 64 volts ou 50 depends how I driving. But it’s confused because I never know if the battery is low or not. In percent is more clear. Can you help me ?
Hello, I am guided by this project to make my scara type 3d printer, however when I enter a G1 the robot does not move, while with the G0 it works as in the video, I do not know if you have any advice, it should be reported that because it is an arm the G1 should make linear trajectories while the G0 non-linear movements.
Great ingenuity !
Thank you!
Wow, i love that
Just an idea I had after watching the start of your video, you say you dont need the 4th rotary axis on the end effector as you are mounting the laser there.
Most of the lower cost diode lasers dont have round beam shapes and they give a rectangular beam spot, as a result you find they will give higher power when travelling along that narrower axis.
My thought is if you used the rotary axis to turn the laser head you could keep it aligned along that axis to maximize power, most important when cutting with the laser.
My other thought was this may not be too difficult if you processed the file to be used as though it was to done with a drag knife engraver ? maybe there is already software that will keep the head aligned for that purpose ?
Anyway nice project !
Интересная вещь. Станочек класс. Спасибо за обзор.
With this laser power you should think about some enclose, it is enough to irreversible damage your eye within a glimpse.
Also a fume extraction would be good because of the toxic gases and particles.

Hey, thanks for the input! Yeah, we must be very cautious when working with lasers. I already mentioned that in the video that safety goggles and respirator mask are must have.
Cheers!
How do we enlarge this design if we wanted to..? like to make it's working area about a plywood sheet size..?
if i mod these plans to accomodate my 3d printer nozzle and extruler would i have a very dextrous printer?
Hi Dejan,
I downloaded all the build files from Cults. Where can I get the stl files for the case for the Arduino Mega + Ramps boards? The downloaded file only come with the Arduino Uno case stl files.
believe me you are genius ❤️
that's a brilliant idea big bro, may i ask why you not use light burn for the software? i really love our design, maybe i do it for may laser engraver..
Great work. Just one question to the forward kinematics equation: + instead of x , correct?
Great work !!!
Thank you! Cheers!
you are a legend
hi man i wanted to ask if you make curses where you build those projects from scratch like actually building all the parts in solid works and explaining the code in details ?
great video by the way
How to 3d print that white laser holder to fit laser precisely?
It's great !
hi, i have a problem with homing can you help me with this issue.
i used the firmware from your site but my issue is y homed first but when started to move towards endstop y also rotates but it should be idle when x is homing as you shown ,someone please help me with this issue

[question]: What is the *maximum* [Length] BY [Width] *engraving area* shown at [1:29] ?
Awesome man👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
To go further with the application of this scara arm ( like found with Fanuc industries ) I guess it's not imposible to make a version for 3d printing. Good work as usual keep us amazed!
Yeah, 3D printing is on my to-do list with this SCARA robot.
@@HowToMechatronics Awesome :)
Awesome stuff thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very cool
Did anyone count how many times his voice cracked 😂 lol love this video
Awesome!
Thanks!
Amazing
Can we make pcb print or etch with this laser ?
Can you do an indepth inverse kinematics explanation? Showing the steps how to derive the equations and perhaps doing another example for other robot design would be very nice!
Well I plan to make such a tutorial as a website article, but I lack time to do it any time soon.
I understand how inverse kinematics works in theory but I've never been able to understand how people use it on real things. I don't underhand how they manage to get the angles needed for calculations and I also don't understand how they manage to get the location of a partof the robot in 3d space
Amazing😍👍👍🤩
Great job :)
Do you think that firmware will work with more recent 32bit board like BTT skr2 or octopus , i think it will be better linear or circular interpolation that is not really possible with a mega2560.
Tank you very much
can you please make a video of its parts briefly, from where you bought it and how you did the complete programming the brief video🙂
great work keep it up
Thanks!
Parabéns
Excelente trabalho
Onde posso conhecer mais sobe seu trabalho?
Paiva Brasil
what software did you use for laser engraving?
i have only 1 question
you added 4th motor in the laser head, for what?
i think with 3 motors its enough maybe i wrong im just a student.
also i liked the video
No way I'm here 3 mins after upload!
nice! you could mount the robot above the material which would give you full 360* freedom
That's cool idea!
Hello, I want to make this really nice project ! But seems like the link to download the Stl is dead on the website. Thanks in advance!
A video in which you convert the robotic arm into a 3d printer would be very interesting.
Wawwwww Amazing 😍😍😍😍😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Please make a 3D printer version video off this sacara robot.
Getting rid off from the traditional 3d printer's small printing area besides occupying big place problems can be solven by this.
can i use this scara laser firmware for scara 3d printer.
Shouldn't you have some kind of casing around the laser
can we use this for 3d printer or cnc
Can you make a laser 3d printer by making small modification of this.
Hey, thank you very much for the coolest content. Creativity. Looking at your site, I noticed two projects where you use the same tool, laser engraving machine by "scara robot" and laser engraving machine by "simplest CNC machine", I guess the question, what is the use of laser in scara even though there is a simpler CNC machine that is easier to use and less expensive, but most of those interested in this field use the same idea of the simplest CNC machine as it develops. scara . is not used
How does the SCARA kinematics and homing logic in Marlin work out for you? Do you need any more changes / improvements to get everything working well? I introduced a “scara feedrate scaling” factor at one point to deal with the difference between degrees-per-second versus mm-per-second, and that should have an obvious positive effect on laser engraving. And I also have in reserve some alternative kinematics (to deal with XY tool offsets) and improved homing (Z first, to the top and “quick homing”) for a SCARA like yours (with a rotating base), originally made for the defunct MakerArm project. There is even mesh leveling. Some of those changes should eventually get integrated into Marlin. At one point I also repaired the old laser plugin for Inkscape, but it looks like the plugin you used is superior.
Hey Scott, thanks for the incredible work you put in the Marlin firmware.
Just like I said in the video, I had some problems with the homing, I opened up a issue request on Github #22233.
I managed to get it somehow working with commenting few lines just like explained in the video, but still it's not working 100% as it should be.
