[How To Mechatronics] capitalized on this and built a SCARA robot arm using 3D-printed parts and common 3D-printer components. The basic SCARA mechanism is a two-link arm, similar to a human arm.

The robot, named Mechpen, and pronounced “McPen”, is of a SCARA (Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm) design, with two parallel axes controlling the x-y movement of the arm.

In this guide, we’re going to introduce you to Arduino using the meArm robot arm project as a guide to a variety of skills. The meArm is an open-source kit with all the parts you need to build a ...
