Works with CTE products and accessories. Code with Blocks, Python, and C++ (Software available at no cost)
The VEX CTE 6-Axis Robot Arm both visually and functionally replicates a real industrial robotic arm. The VEX CTE 6-Axis Robotic Arm Kit is
designed for Career and Technical Education, giving students hands-on experience programming a realistic robotic arm. Teach industrial robotics with real-life manufacturing concepts through engaging activities and coding challenges
Learn to set up and control the arm using a Teach Pendant, then code it to perform precise movements and tasks. Gain practical skills in robotics and automation through hands-on activities and coding challenges.
The arm’s six different rotational joints allow students to freely manipulate the arm’s end effector tools.
Arm maximum reach: 335 mm
Platform size: 638 x 333 mm
Contains one robotic arm, power adapter and cable, field tile, and other appropriate pieces to get started with the VEX CTE 6-Axis Robotic Arm.
