 Introduction
• SCARA robots are highly versatile and efficient in performing a
wide range of assembly and manufacturing tasks.

• One of the most recent application is using SCARA robots for

wooden laser engraving.

• It can be used for automated processes, increasing efficiency and

precision while also reducing the risk of repetitive strain injuries
for human workers.
