Visitors to igus' stand at the Engineering Design Show (Richo Arena, Coventrey, October 22-23) will be able to see a demonstration of a full robolink D system in action.

“robolink D is a different approach to the problem of creating lightweight, cost effective configurable robotic systems,” says Justin Leonard, director at igus. “unlike the wire driven standard robolink, this system is built on a series of directly driven joints, allowing higher payloads to be carried.”
