OVR Robotics Series:
All of the OVR robots utilize Oriental Motor's AZ series step servo hybrid motor, which allows them to operate without sensors and batteries. This motor technology blends stepper and servo motors, offering precise control and high torque. The robots have features like control over multiple axes, simple programming, and adjustable speeds.
OVR robots are user-friendly, from beginners to expert programmers. You can easily use the robots through a straightforward app interface, making setup and operation quick and effortless.
Three-Axis Scara Robot

Oriental Motor's Five-Axis vertically articulated robot stands out for its unparalleled flexibility in movement and access to challenging angles. The continued use of a DG turntable in its base, coupled with right-angle gearheads, lends to its slim profile and lightweight design.
Applications:
The five-axis configuration extends its utility across broader applications, from intricate sensing and imaging tasks to precise pick-and-place operations while maintaining a compact and efficient design.
Six-Axis, Vertically Articulated Robot
Although not featured at AUTOMATE 2024, the Six-Axis Vertically Articulated Robot is a key part of the OVR Series.
Oriental Motor's Six-Axis vertically articulated robot stands out as the "Cadillac" of the OVR series for unparalleled flexibility in movement and access to challenging angles, achieved through the use of the additional wrist axis. Powered by harmonic drives, this robot maintains its lightweight design even with one additional axis.
Applications:
Ideal for intricate assembly tasks, precise material handling, and complex welding procedures.
MRC01 Controller
