Dorna 2 Review Summary

The Dorna 2 is a small industrial-style arm from Dorna Robotics of California. It carries 1.5 kg over 500 mm at up to 1000 mm/s, uses closed-loop control and can drive up to three auxiliary axes such as rails or rotary tables. It is controlled through web-based software that runs on different devices. It suits light, fast handling in laboratories and small production cells. With five axes it cannot orient its tool as freely as a six-axis arm, and for that Dorna offers the six-axis Dorna TA.
