Lynxmotion SES-V1 AL5D PLTW Robotic Arm (5 DoF) Kit

The Custom AL5D robotic arm is specifically designed for Project Lead The Way (PLTW) and is fully compatible with the free FlowArm PLTW software. It features advanced inverse kinematics positioning control, allowing users to operate it seamlessly with a mouse. The package includes a medium-duty wrist rotate upgrade and the new SSC-32U servo controller board, eliminating the need for a USB-to-serial adapter and a 9V battery. Additionally, everything required to control the arm from a personal computer via USB is included in the kit. An assembled version is also available under the Lynxmotion SES-V1 AL5D PLTW Robotic Arm (5 DoF) Assembled model.

The Lynxmotion SES-V1 AL5D PLTW Robotic Arm (5 DoF) Kit is specifically tailored for PLTW schools. This comprehensive package consists of a complete AL5D robotic arm, a medium-duty wrist rotate upgrade, an SSC-32U servo controller board, and a USB cable. Built for speed, accuracy, and repeatability, the Lynxmotion AL5D 4 Degrees of Freedom Robotic Arm is based on a time-tested, highly durable design. The kit provides everything necessary for assembly and operation, including the FlowArm PLTW software, an extra servo cable, and essential components for functionality. Its aluminum frame is constructed using Lynxmotion's Servo Erector Set components, ensuring flexibility and expandability. The robotic arm is made of black anodized aluminum brackets, aluminum tubing and hubs, custom injection-molded parts, and precision laser-cut Lexan components.

Project Lead The Way (PLTW) is a leading STEM education program used in over 5,000 schools across the United States. As part of the PLTW Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) curriculum, students learn to create an assembly line and integrate the Lynxmotion AL5D robotic arm. The FlowArm PLTW software enables students to fully control the arm without extensive programming, allowing for seamless integration into manufacturing and assembly systems.

FlowArm PLTW includes a powerful pattern sequencer component, typically found only in the full version of FlowBotics Studio. This feature enables users to create reusable movement patterns within minutes or hours instead of days or weeks. Additionally, it allows for variable playback speeds, enhancing the flexibility and efficiency of robotic operations.
