Abstract-A 5 Degree of Freedom (DOF) robotic arm has been rotate through multiple planes and they increase the

rotary joints, a robot can engage in very exact movements

an end effector, where rotary motion is provided by a and utilize their flexibility to manipulate a greater work

works Sheet Metal Working Toolbox and then fabricated
using a 2mm thick Aluminium sheet. The servo-motors and
links thus produced assembled with fasteners produced the
final shape of the arm. The Arduino has been programmed to
provide rotation to each servo motor corresponding to the
amount of rotation of the potentiometer shaft.

This link is free to rotate so as to provide a high work place gripper. A geared link is attached to a servo motor
envelope. which is meshes with another geared link to provide a
smooth action of gripping of different objects according
to there sizes. The movement of both of the figures of the
gripper is synchronized well to hold the objects.
