Overview

The robolink ReBeL SCARA is a 3 DOF (Degree of Freedom) robot that can be built using the ReBeL gearbox joints from igus. It represents a practical implementation of the ReBeL strain wave gearbox system for SCARA-type robotic applications. The system provides a cost-effective solution for service robotics with fully integrated joints containing motors, control systems, and encoders.
