Description
Features

DYNAMIXEL is a robot exclusive smart actuator with fully integrated DC Motor + Reduction Gearhead + Controller + Driver + Network in one DC servo module.

Dynamixel AX-series are used in ROBOTIS STEM, Premium, and GP. 

You can easily create various types of robots such as humanoid, 4 legged and 6 legged robot with the AX-series. 

It can also be used as a wheel so that you can create a robot with a combination of wheel type and joint type in a single module.

By using a variety of high-strength engineering plastic option frames or by printing frames using a 3D printer, you can produce any type of robot at a low cost.

AX-18A is a high performance version of the popular DYNAMIXEL AX-12A, and can be applied to robots that need more power.

Applied a 4th metal gear to enhance endurance
