Dobot M1 is a Professional SCARA based robotic arm with interchangeable heads for small business, educators and Innovators.
You can program the arm to do various automated function in a manufacturing plant, it can enhance your efficiency in production line with picking and placing feature, visual system and more.
Innovators can use it for 3d printing, double color 3d print, 3d print on rail, laser engrave on wood, plastic, paper, leather, soldering, drawing, painting, picking and placing and more…
Dobot M1 is made to reverse one simple fact: industrial robotic arms are very expensive. With 0.02mm precision, velocity of 200 degrees per second, 1.5kg workload and 400mm maximum reach, Dobot M1 makes a perfect essence for a professional workspace, and the price under surprising $2000.
Not only that, with features like self-developed user interface, wireless connectivity, handhold teaching, and multi-Dobot cooperation capability, it’s a user-friendly robot arm for self-employers and factories to build their own production platform.
Unlike Dobot 1.0, Dobot M1 is designed for a different group of people, who need a more powerful, professional robotic arm that’s affordable, something in between a toy-like model and a high end industrial one. It’s new, no one’s made this product before. And since we enjoy talking to the brilliant minds on Kickstarter, we decided to launch the project here and let you keep talking about it.
Moving objects won’t fool Dobot M1’s visual recognizing ability either. Recognize, pick, rotate and place, smoothly done without any mistake.

Give you a hand and it’s awesome. Give you two and you can create magic. You can connect to more than one Dobot M1 at once, especially with its wireless connectivity. The possibilities out of the combination are endless.

The built-in mapping and path planning system expands Dobot M1’s reach to a whole floor, working as a high-precision execution end, performing tasks like automatic inventory management or in-house service.

You might start thinking about it
Dobot M1 is highly expandable. With standardized head tool port, and complete protocol, API and SDK, multiple hardware extension ports, what you’ve never imagined can now actually become real!
Simplest Head Tool Port

Unscrew it, insert, screw it back in, done. It’s that simple.
Developing Dobot M1

Dobot M1 is completely programmable. You can use the official script writing environment, or access to its API & SDK on your own. If you’re a stranger to coding, which is totally ok, there’s the visualized programming environment embedded for easier development.
