DYNAMIXEL AX-18A

General

ROBOTIS is a well known manufacturer for high quality robotic products like servomotors, controllerboards and mechanical parts. Theire products will be used from private persons, companys and research institutes & universitys. The DYNAMIXEL AX-18A is one of the most common robot servomotor. His small dimensions, high reliability and keen price delight many customers around the world. Furthermore every DYNAMIXEL Servomotor has a individual ID, internal sensors and encoders to be able to wire up to 254 motors in series. Moreover the internal sensors and encoders can be read for building e.g. a teach & repeat robot. Very powerful controllerboards are the Raspberry Pi DSC, ROBOTIS OpenCM9.04 and the OpenCR Controller.
