Children will have total command and visual manipulation of this DIY Robot Arm using the scientific principles of a Hydraulic Arm system!

This Hydraulic Robotic Arm is articulated and is a cool example of hydraulic robot arms that are widely used in factories all over the world, now it's your turn to see how levers work as you follow the step by step instructions and illustrations to build your very own Robot Arm using the 229 intricate pieces. It's powered by water, no batteries or motor required!

Using the levers, you can command six different axes of varied movement using the gripper, rotating wrist, forearm, and shoulder. With the removal of the gripper, you can also activate the suction apparatus which enables you to elevate objects with a larger surface area (like a small mobile phone)!

The ingenious braking system that is integrated into the lever controls will help you to execute commands with extreme accuracy, wow!

What a wonderful challenge for the beginner engineering enthusiast, and an engaging project to help you learn about robotics, levers, fluid dynamics and design and technology. Use it as a fun way to move small things around the house - it can grip, lift, and rotate close to 270°!
