FUNCTIONS

3D Printing

As a robotic arm, Dobot Magician is precise enough for 3D printing models with nice finishing,

it is comparable with many other 3D printers on the market. Thanks to its two extra stepper

motor ports, Dobot Magician can also do double color 3D printing. Dobot Magician is

compatible with mainstream open-source 3D printing software like Repetier Host and

Pronterface.

Writing & Drawing

With its high precision and stability, Dobot Magician can draw smooth lines. On its PC

software you can customize the image’s size and position. You can also use your own

customized texts and images for drawing, where you can be as creative as you want.

Laser Engraving (available in Educational version only)

Dobot Magician can engrave not just lines, it can also sketch images with shades. Its powerful

laser head is capable of engraving on harder materials like leather and wood.

Only available in the Educational version.

Grabbing and Sucking

With grabber and sucker accessories, Dobot Magician can move small objects. By customizing

its movements, you can use it to help you out in some situations.

Teach & Playback

You can build up a list of movements for Dobot Magician to execute. You can also make

Dobot Magician memorize movements by simply dragging it, and make it repeat by one click.

You can also customize its movements by more accurately setting parameters on its PC

software, where the playback list can be manually edited.

Visualized Programming

Dobot Blockly is a visualized programming environment developed for Dobot Magician, based

on Google’s open-source platform Google Blockly. On Dobot Blockly you can program by

simply putting puzzles together, it is intuitive and highly readable. It also integrated exclusive

API for Dobot Magician, you can use them right away.

Multi-Dobot Cooperation

Through WIFI connection or connecting both machines to an external board, you can control

multiple Dobot Magicians all at once. This not only saves you controlling devices, but also

improved efficiency in operating and calibrating.

ADVANTAGES

Cutting edge functions

Dobot Magician is the first robotic arm that can do 3D printing in consumer market. The

advantage of high precision and switchable tool heads enables many ways to play it: 3D

printing, laser engraving, pick & place, write & draw…combining them brings out even more

fun, and unlimited creativity as well.

Graphical programming environment

Dobot Magician has the most multifunctional ever robotic arm UI. Besides script (Python), it

also has a graphical programming environment, where you can write codes by simply piling

up blocks! What a colourful and intuitive way to understand coding, robot controlling and

automation!

Cross subject learning tool

Dobot Magician is an integration of programming, mechanics, electronics and automation, a vivid STEAM teaching device that strengthens your knowledge structure across multiple subjects. Having high precision, user-friendly UI, enjoyable functions and big developing possibilities, this overall experience puts you into an immersive exploration, increasing your interest in science and technology.

Highly extendable – makers’ first choice

You may have to droll on Dobot Magician’s extendibility: standardized end effector port

allows you to DIY all kinds of head tools; 12 extension ports covering digital/analog I/O,

power source, motor and serial port communication; API access along with communication

protocols, script & graphical programming environment. With our official developer tutorial,

you can DIY your own sensor based accessories, creating more smart ways to use a robotic

arm!
