Yes, I'm human ;) Its a little bit more than a hobby, I'm a freelancer, mostly programming but with some custom hardware on the side. Projects like this help me to learn new things and attract new clients. But mostly, its just great fun to do.

I build a 6-axis robot arm this year,but with no idea making a 6-axis controller.Till I saw this video and got the source code on your Github.That has helped me to a great extent.
Aaaand you're hired for wherever you want. Seriously, nothing says SpaceX, LockHeed Martin, Literally any car company than designing your own robot arm. This is amazing.
May I suggest that when you are sketching designs for prototyping and building, you use a composition notebook?That way you won't have loose or torn papers so you can keep track of your work.
Lol, you're like me - old school. He only did a sketch for the video. Almost all the stuff in that shop was CNC - his notebook is a thumb drive. The wire strippers and flush cuts were top of the line. What was he building? A robot arm that stacks blocks.
This is very interesting. I've reviewed many DIY robot arm builds and this one is the most professional I've seen. Despite all the great design, engineering, materials, machining and software. The arm is not stable like a commercial robot arm, you can see a sway and shake. When reviewing thees videos want to see if the motion is rock solid. When you see a compound move (two joints moving at once) there should be no movement any were else. What is the secret to the expensive robot arms? Gearing, backlash, balance?
We are hoping to add a robotic arm to a VR room we made. Wondering if you know any good candidates to buy that are turn key? Looking for aesthetics and big (hanging from the ceiling)
the secret is rigid materials, precise servos and first of all: good, accurate design, which requires much study on mechanics like kinematics, dinamics, statics, elasticity, etc and takes years to pick up. That's it.
What program did u use for programming the robot hand? And what kinda board did u use for the electronic components and how about the power,? And the voltage?
I don't mean this to be rude, I'm just curious. Why is it so jittery when it comes to a stop? Like it moves smooth then it reaches it's destination and slams to a stop shaking itself. Is that just an effect of the stepper motors or just needs a decelerating script or something?
Accept my respect for your creativity. Let me ask a few questions: What is the width of the rail? What is the weight of the robot? What is the power of the largest motor?
+Kris Temmerman I'm studying mechanical engineering, always dreamed of having a workshop like that. Would you consider creating an apprenticeship to help you out with stuff around the shop?
The first time the gripper releases a block either the grippers are adhering to the block or they are not releasing simultaneously because the block scooted. I am assuming there is no other movement in the arm at the time. Just another detail to take care of wrapping up some very nice work on your part. Someone mentioned it may be a stepper motor kicking back?
Great work sir..... Please tell me Your education qualifications And which software use make 3d modeling..... Which language best for this type project make in future..... Great work sir.....
Amazing!! you are great! I have a question, I hope and you can help me. How do you do the cinder-arduino communication? I'm doing some projects and I'm very stuck in that part. Answer please🙏🏻
Nice work, I'm really envyous about your workshop. Using stepper motors and worm gears isn't the best choice, now you have backlash and some springyness in your joints. Why no servo motors? You could use magnetic rotary sensors from ams and some nice geared dc-motors. For reducing the needed torque: Make sure, the center of mass of the second arm link is as close as possible to the ellbow joint, best is its located directly on the axis. Then add some springs to the first arm link in the shoulder joint to compensate the weight of the arm. There's a way to calculate the needed excentricity and base point for given weight and spring compliance, but I can't find a source on the web. When this is done correctly, all main joints should be free of static loads and the motors have just to accelerate the masses and regulate disturbances (eg. extra weight on the gripper). This is also done in real industrial robots, you can often see the cylinders at the shoulder that are pneumatic springs for the weight compensation.
It's not that easy to make a servo with a DC motor and a random encoder. It takes a lot of time if he has never done such thing before. Finding out the right PID constants, plotting step responses and dealing with noise in the encoders etc. is very time consuming. I think he did the right choice going for steppers. I think you're right about the other stuff you said.
Totally found my new role model XD Seriously, I'm majoring in robotics (finishing up my general education right now) and I haven't learned how to do anything like this. Where did you learn how to do all this and how long did it take you to get to this point?
Thanks :) The hardware: not that long, most things I learned while making it. The software: hard to tell, I'm a programmer for more that 10 years, so I have some experience. which makes it easy to fill in missing gabs or find solutions for problems .
When you come up with an idea for a project, what is the first step in realizing that project? It looks like you go 1. Visualize it on paper 2. Design it in (auto-cad?) 3. Acquire the physical components 4. Assemble (base components, electronics, and software) 5. Test and Debug ... Does that sound about right?
Do you use high torque stepper motors? I have a bunch, but they have a bunch and I want to make my own robotic arm, but they can't even lift the arm itself
Awesome job! I'm trying to build one for school project and this one is awesome, my project would never be compared with yours. Let me tell you that this is the first time I comment a video in TH-cam because you deserve to be congratulated. Greetings from Mexico.
Amazing project! One man show! Is there a "how to build this" guide for this project? I would be interested to consider it to give it a try. I didn't see anything related to this in your git repos. Cheers!
This is an awesome build, i was curious however what is that program you're using that's displaying the robot kinematics and position on your laptop. is that something you've written or something that's available? Also did you run this entire arm off an Arduino or did you just use that for motor control then use your mac for computer vision and path planning?
Man you are amazing.I want to learn from you a lot and be like you.Please can you make vedios on educating the mechanical machines which you have in your workshop,how to work on them ect.Then teach the programming skills that you have.Then the effective design process of any project.It will be very fascinating if you share your knowledge and I personally love to watch your vedios but want to get knowledge in much detail.Thanks man you are an inspiration for others.....Keep it up the great work....
Hi Kris, I'm building a simpler 3 axis arm and I'd like to stop all the motors at the same time like you did. I've wrote the code for acceleration with multiple steppers but they go out of sync when I set differents speeds, accelerations and positions. Can you please tell me how did you handle that? thanks in advice.
Wauw Kris! Je hebt echt talent! Het is erg mooi om te zien dat je vanaf helemaal niks, een professioneel uitziende robotarm designed, bouwt en daarnaast ook nog programmeert! Dan stelt mijn robotarm nog niks voor..
Good job. I estimate you've done this.. For almost two and a half years by yourself... But share the equipment. You also probably have a very long history of programming. I say this because I Am doing all of this too BUT... I have difficulties driving to the equipment since my car caught on fire a while ago. I'm just reaching the 1.5 year mark myself. One question..... Why is there a window right there.? Are you advertising for yourself or for the equipment?
Thanks! your not that far off :) I have quite a lot to learn a bout the mechanical stuff etc. But I'm a decent programer. My house/workshop once was a shop. So it came with the store window. Its just something for the passersby to look at. The clients I work for don't come in my neighbourhood. so, its more for fun.
For the amount of time and money spent on building it, I would have come to your address and stacked those blocks for 4-5 months. I would also have brought my Yamaha keyboard and played music. Great video.
Still not stiff enough to avoid UNWANTED inertial movements that kill precision motion, happening for example at 3:44 (and on) when braking or starting a movement [accelerating / desaccelerating]. As always, backlash gearboxes and/or feeble assembled aluminum framing and are guilty (causes) of that. That's why KUKA and ABB robot frames are made of cast iron, and use complex Nabtesco mega expensive gearboxes. However, according to cost, this is still a decent specimen for prototyping.
I doubt the frame gave in with such a small scale, but yes the gears need to be airtight, along with shafts and bearings that have no possible give. And there is a great deal in adaptive programming, a stepper motor can approximate moving 90° but higher the load and less accurately it can do that. So you need to make the programming work out the load on a particular motor at all the angles and then compensate with soft deceleration to match expected backlash.
Hi Kris, I'm starting to make a project to get my degree in mechatronics, and i'm making an arm very similar to yours but in a smaller scale and I would really appreciate if you could tell me anything about how you made your kinematics simulation program, i'm aware you used c++ and i'm using python so i guess your software wouldn't be compatible but i'd love to make a tool like that, any tip would be awesome... I must say i've saw your video more times than i could count and it inspired me to make my project that way. Thank you so much
Hi,thanks, not easy to explain :) I'm using OpenGL to draw the 3D model. First you need to know how to draw a box with a transformation matrix (with a rotation and translation). if its a rotating joint, the translation is fixed (the offset between the joint and the parent joint in neutral position) and the rotation is the joint rotation. Then you start to nest the joints, worldDrawMatrix =lockalMatrix(rotation of joint and translation to previous joint) *previousJoint.worldDrawMatrix. Draw the boxes with the worldDrawMatrix. Something like that... :) Depending on your experience, it can be quite tricky to do that for the first time. Start making it joint by joint. Good luck!
