Modular robotics - create your own robot
igus® is a leading specialist in developing robotic components and motion control systems made from wear-resistant, long-lasting plastics. With a focus on modular robotics, igus® enables businesses to combine various modules and components to build customised automation solutions.
This modular approach allows companies to adapt quickly to changing production requirements—without the cost and delay of entirely new system developments.
By offering high-quality yet low-cost automation components, igus® makes advanced automation accessible, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises looking to streamline operations on a limited budget. The combination of affordable automation and flexible modular design empowers companies across multiple industries to implement tailored robotic systems that boost efficiency, increase productivity, and support the modernisation of manufacturing processes.
Assemblies as single components
Gear unit assembly
By using modular concepts, various gearbox types—such as planetary, strain wave and worm gearboxes—can be seamlessly integrated into automation systems. This modular approach allows companies to expand and customise their robotics step by step, adding new modules without rebuilding entire systems. The result is precise, versatile and adaptable automation that delivers high performance while remaining cost-effective.
Linear axes assembly
Linear guide assemblies offer modularity, allowing rails, carriages and other elements to be combined or swapped to achieve specific motion requirements. This flexibility lets companies adapt and customise automation systems without rebuilding them from scratch. The result is precise, versatile and cost-effective linear motion for high-performance automation.
ReBeL® strain wave gear
The ReBeL® strain wave gear features an innovative, versatile design that delivers precise and robust motion control. Its modularity allows new components to be seamlessly added to expand functionality and adapt to changing production needs. This combination of precision, durability and flexibility supports high-performance, cost-effective automation.
Maximum freedom with assembly interoperability
Module interoperability ensures that robot arms, drives, grippers and sensors work together seamlessly through standardised interfaces and communication protocols. This allows independently developed components to be effortlessly combined into customised robotic solutions. Companies can react quickly to market changes by reusing existing modules instead of creating new robots from scratch. This “maximum freedom through assembly interoperability” marks a major shift in modular robotics, enabling highly flexible, needs-based automation.
