Sample Studica Robotics Structure

Studica is offering free samples of our structure components, free grant offerings for $200.00 along with a discount offering for all parts on our website.

  • Strong and Safe: Studica’s structural components for robotics are 3mm thick, deburred, polished, and anodized. These channel components are smoothed to remove any rough edges, there is no need to worry about anyone cutting their hands or wires getting spliced during operation.
  • Versatile and Efficient: The patented Studica Robotics hole pattern is smart and highly adaptable: it is compatible with many brands and offers additional possibilities. Our design allows you to connect parts at various angles beyond just straight or 90° and position pieces at up to 16 angles. This design quickens the building process by eliminating the need for additional cutting and drilling.
