Joint Rated Torque (Nm) Peak Torque (Nm) Rated Speed (rpm) Peek Speed (rpm) Gear Ratio Working Range
Joint 1 9 27 36 100 40 [-165°,165°]
Joint 2 20 50 40 120 39 [0, 180°]
Joint 3 9 27 36 100 40 [-190°,0°]
Joint 4 5 12 260 315 10 [-90°,90°]
Joint 5 5 12 260 315 10 [-90°,90°]
Joint 6 5 12 260 315 10 [-165°, 165°]

Note: The robot arm's joints will have a 2° position limit protection within their operational range.

The working range of each joint of the robot arm is shown in the figure below:

A1X_joint_angle_cn

  • Figure 1: The maximum rotation angle of Joint 1 of the robot arm in the Yaw direction is 330 degrees, with a rotation radius of 600 mm.
  • Figure 2: The maximum rotation angle of Joint 2 and Joint 3 of the robot arm in the Pitch direction is 180 degrees and 190 degrees, respectively; the maximum rotation angle of Joint 4 in the Pitch direction is 180 degrees.
  • Figure 3: The maximum rotation angle of Joint 5 of the robot arm in the Yaw direction is 180 degrees; the maximum rotation angle of Joint 6 in the Roll direction is 330 degrees.

A1Y

The A1Y robot arm has 6 joints with a maximum rotation angle of 330 degrees.

Joints 4 and 5 of the A1Y robot arm differ from those of the A1X. Specific parameters are as follows:

Joint Rated Torque (Nm) Peak Torque (Nm) Rated Speed (rpm) Peek Speed (rpm) Gear Ratio Working Range
Joint 1 9 27 36 100 40 [-165°,165°]
Joint 2 20 50 40 120 39 [0, 180°]
Joint 3 9 27 36 100 40 [-190°,0°]
Joint 4 5 12 260 315 10 [-165°,165°]
Joint 5 5 12 260 315 10 [-105°,105°]
Joint 6 5 12 260 315 10 [-165°, 165°]

The working range of each joint of the robot arm is shown in the figure below:

A1Y_joint_angle_cn

  • Figure 1: The maximum rotation angle of Joint 1 of the robot arm in the Yaw direction is 330 degrees, with a rotation radius of 600 mm.
  • Figure 2: The maximum rotation angles of Joint 2 and Joint 3 of the robot arm in the Pitch direction are 180 degrees and 190 degrees, respectively; the maximum rotation angle of Joint 4 in the Roll direction is 330 degrees.
  • Figure 3: The maximum rotation angle of Joint 5 of the robot arm in the Pitch direction is 210 degrees; the maximum rotation angle of Joint 6 in the Roll direction is 330 degrees.

Installing the Gripper

Follow these steps to install the gripper on the arm's end (reverse the steps to remove the gripper).

A1XY_install_gripper_cn

  1. Alignment Check: Ensure the three mounting holes around the gripper align with the three at the arm's end.
  2. Screw Fixation: Once aligned, use the provided three screws to fix and tighten the gripper to the arm's end.
  3. Final Check: After tightening, check if the gripper is aligned and firmly attached.
  4. Wiring Connection: Connect the CAN harness located on the outer side of Joint 6 (J6) at the robot arm's end-effector to the communication port of the gripper.

Install Other End-effectors

Follow these steps to install other end effectors to the end of the robot arm (reverse steps to remove them), here taking the dexterous hand as an example:

A1XY_install_ee_cn

  1. Alignment Check: Use a custom adapter flange to align the 4 mounting holes around the dexterous hand and the 3 mounting holes around the flange with the 3 mounting holes at the end of the robot arm. (Note: The robot arm's joints will have a 2° position limit protection within their operational range.)
  2. Screw Fixing: After alignment, use the provided screws to secure the dexterous hand, flange, and end of the robot arm together.
  3. Firmness Check: After tightening the screws, check again if the dexterous hand is aligned and securely installed.
  4. Wiring Connection: Connect the CAN harness located on the outer side of Joint 6 (J6) at the robot arm's end-effector to the communication port of the gripper.
