The anatomy

A single body,
engineered as one.

Motor, gearset, encoder and driver share one housing — so you focus on building, not on integrating four parts into a joint.

01 · Output

Geared output flange

20 N·m at the joint, 15 arc-min backlash.

02 · Drive

Stator & windings

Tightly wound for high torque density.

03 · Sense

Closed-loop encoder

Feedback for precise position & torque.

04 · Control

On-board electronics

Driver plus integrated ESD protection.

Easy to drive

Closed-loop control that drops into real systems.

Communicate with Myo-20 over CAN FD, UART, or USB-C, with position, velocity and torque control available from the start. Daisy-chain multiple joints on one bus.
