igus' ReBeL makes it possible to have a sixth rotation axis in the modular robolink system, and allows all positions to be reached.

igus 6 axis joint robot rebeligus’ ReBeL low-cost robotics joint can be used in residential and commercial settings. The joint is driven by a strain wave gear and will be displayed as a single component for the first time. The new joint includes brushless direct-current motors instead of stepper motors as in previous robolink models. The unit operates with BLDC motors, which are installed in the maintenance-free strain wave gear of the joint. Control equipment is also built into the axes and eliminates the need for an external control cabinet. ReBeL makes it possible to have a sixth rotation axis in the modular robolink system, and allows all positions to be reached. For bearing purposes, lubrication-free and smoothly operating xiros plastic ball bearings are used.
