📖 Project Overview
PAROL6 is a high-performance 3D-printed desktop robotic arm. The design approach of PAROL6 was to be similar to industrial robots in terms of mechanical design, control software, and usability. Control software, GUI, and robots STL files are open-source.
How to build / Where to buy?
You can buy the PAROL6 robotic arm on our website: https://source-robotics.com
If you want to Source all the parts yourself and build your own follow these steps:
- Source all the parts from the BOM
- Follow Building instructions to assemble your robot
- Follow DOCS to get your robot up and running.
