The Nova 2 Entry-Level 6-Axis Collaborative Robot Arm (2 kg / 625 mm) expands the Nova family’s flexible design with greater reach and payload, while retaining intuitive programming and deployment in customer-facing or semi-industrial scenarios. It delivers fast, safe, and accurate operation, perfect for dispensing, assembly, and light handling tasks.
Core Highlights
Flexible 6-Axis Motion
Nova 2 is equipped with six rotary joints for flexible end-effector positioning. J1, J4, J5, and J6 support ±360° motion, while J2 supports ±180° and J3 supports ±156°, enabling multi-directional positioning and orientation adjustment.
625 mm Reach with 2 kg Payload
Nova 2 provides a 2 kg maximum payload, 625 mm working radius, 1.6 m/s maximum TCP speed, and ±0.05 mm repeatability. This configuration is suitable for commercial automation, lightweight material handling, and service-oriented robot applications.
Hand-Guiding Teaching Function
The robot arm is equipped with a hand-guiding button and status indicator at the end. When enabled, users can long-press the end button to enter hand-guiding mode, manually move the arm to a target position, and exit the mode to record or adjust robot motion paths.
Any-Angle Installation
Nova 2 supports installation at any angle, allowing flexible layout on counters, service stations, workbenches, walls, or other equipment structures. Appropriate fixing and anti-fall measures should be applied according to the actual installation environment.
PC and App Control
Nova 2 supports control through PC, Android tablets, and iPad. DobotStudio Pro is used on PC, while Dobot CRStudio is supported on mobile terminals. A wireless receiver must be connected to the CCBOX for Wi-Fi control.
