Collaborative Dual Arm Assembly Kit with Arduino Mega + Servo
Build a Cooperative Dual-Arm Pick-and-Place Robot with Arduino Mega
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
This kit equips you to build a real dual-arm collaborative robot that picks and places small parts in perfect synchrony — just like factory-level automation, but on your workbench. The two 4‑DOF arms share a single trajectory planner running on an Arduino Mega, so you learn the exact coordination logic used in modern manufacturing cells.
What You'll Build
You’ll assemble and program a self-contained pick‑and‑place station with two servo‑driven arms, an integrated OLED status display, and a robust 10‑amp power backbone. The arms move simultaneously, avoiding collisions while transferring objects from one staging area to another — an ideal base for automated assembly, sorting, or educational research rigs.
What You'll Learn
- Shared trajectory generation and arm synchronisation using inverse kinematics
- Multi‑axis servo control via two PCA9685 drivers over I²C
- Industrial‑grade power conditioning with bulk capacitance and decoupling networks
- Hardware integration: soldering PCB boards and wiring aluminium structural brackets

Who This Kit Is For
Builders with prior Arduino experience ready to move from single‑arm prototypes to industrial‑grade multi‑axis systems. Ideal for B.Tech/M.Tech students in ECE, EEE, or Mechatronics at IITs, NITs, VIT, and BITS, as well as professionals prototyping automation cells. The project aligns perfectly with Smart India Hackathon challenges in robotics and factory automation, and serves as a durable platform for research on collaborative manipulation.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code to launch the AI companion trained on this kit, or send a photo via WhatsApp — we'll help you debug directly.
How do I synchronise the two arms without collisions?
The companion includes a shared trajectory planner codebase that interleaves arm movements and validates reachable positions before commanding the servos.
Can the 10A power supply handle all eight MG996R servos under load?
Yes, with the provided bulk capacitors and decoupling network it supplies over 2.5A per arm with ample headroom, even when four servos move simultaneously.
Is soldering experience required?
The kit includes all PCBs and a soldering iron. Basic soldering skill is recommended; the companion provides clear soldering guides for power rails and header pins.
Two 4DOF arms synchronised via shared trajectory planner to cooperatively pick and place small parts.
