Teach Tech “Hydrobot Arm Kit”, Hydraulic Kit, STEM Building Toy for Kids 12+

"Young engineers will be delighted with the new HydroBot Arm Kit. It is powered by water, so no motor needed! They can use the levers and the power of hydraulics to move the multi-axis arm. The lever controllers have a special braking system that helps to achieve fine, accurate tasks. The gripper can open and close with a maximum 47mm (1. 89 in. ) gap, wrist joint rotation of 180deg. , wrist joint mobility of 98deg. , elbow joint range of 44deg. , base rotation of 270deg. , and shoulder joint motion of 45deg. , with a vertical reach of 16. 35in. , horizontal reach of 12. 42in. , and 50g lifting capacity. Grippers can be removed and replaced with suction components to pick up objects with smooth surface areas of no greater than 50g (1. 75 oz. ). The clear, animated instructions make the assembly and operation of this STEM robot easy to understand. Best suited for Future Engineers 12 and up. Elenco Teach products are based on STEM activities (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) to teach and encourage kids in their development, all while having fun! All Teach Tech Green-Energy robots are powered by either water, wind, or sun, so there are no batteries required. Perfect for future engineers ages 12+. "

• BUILD WORKING ROBOTS: Teach your kids mechanical engineering in a way they can't resist! Designed for kids 12+, this kit will guide your learner through the process of building real, working robots - taught in a way that they'll understand!
• POWERED BY WATER: Use the power of hydraulics to harness and control the Hydrobot! The arm includes 6 different axes and can rotate up to 270 degrees - no batteries required
• MOVES, ROTATES & GRABS: Use the levers to control the gripper which can open and close or be replaced with suction components to pick up objects
• NOT JUST ROBOTICS: With our Teach Tech Kits, the learning doesn't just stop at robotics. Teach Tech instructions are specifically designed to develop problem solving skills, analytical thinking and curiosity in young minds
• Hands-on Building: This is an in-depth STEM building project, not a pre-assembled toy. Follow the detailed step-by-step assembly instructions, take time to ensure proper assembly, and enjoy a true STEM experience. Expect multiple hours of build time.
