Ned2

The Niryo Ned 2 is a 6-axis robotic arm that was created to help you with your workstation and process automation applications. It’s a full, reprogrammable solution for manufacturers looking to automate one end of their production line.

This arm also has a didactic vocation and allows the discovery of robotics, mechanics, electronics, programming and much more. It allows teachers to create practical projects that engage students and provide them with a greater sense of learning pleasure.Educational staff and students can reproduce industrial use cases.

Ned2 has a maximum reach of 44 cm from its base and can carry weights up to 300 g. It offers a precision and movement repeatability of approximately 0.5 mm.

The Ned2 robot has additional capabilities that allow you to interface with the machine quickly thanks to its strong Raspberry Pi 4 microcontroller and 64-bit ARM processor.

• The LED ring and loudspeakers give the different visual and audio indications required to quickly determine the robot’s state.
• You may switch to “Freemotion” mode and create your motion sequences in Niryo Studio using a control panel on Ned2’s wrist.
• You can also set one of the control panel’s buttons to perform a succession of pre-programmed actions with a single press.

A complete Industry 4.0 training ecosystem requires accessories:

• 2 different grippers (one large and one adaptive)
• a vacuum pump
• an electromagnet.

How control Ned?

• Using the control panel on the robot’s wrist, move your robot’s arm with your fingertips using the “Freemotion” mode.
• Use Niryo Studio, our visual and intuitive programming interface based on Blockly, and create your programs by selecting multiple blocks.
• With its digital inputs and outputs, control Ned2 with an Arduino board or a Raspberry Pi.
• Control Ned2 via our Python and Modbus APIs, or dive into the heart of the robot by developing your own ROS nodes in Python or C++. Develop new ways to control Ned2 for your different projects.
