    ALPHA CATALOGUE

    Discover the range of Reach Alpha manipulators. Designed for complex missions, these robotic arms are available in multiple configurations to meet your specific task requirements.

    “In our search for the perfect subsystems (robotic arms and underwater vehicles), we came across the Alpha 5 arm that has all the characteristics we were looking for: it is small, lightweight and electrically actuated. The Alpha 5 is integrated with ROS and this is an enormous bonus for us, as we can easily integrate it with the other subsystems in the UVMS configuration. The Blueprint Lab team responded to all our questions, they delivered the system without any delays, and they continue to support and answer all our needs after the system has been delivered.”

    Mounting Kit

    For customers looking for simple ROV integration, we highly recommend adding the Reach Alpha mounting kit to your order. We’ve designed this interface with a screw collar for easy deployment and storage of our underwater robotic grabbers. Included at no cost in all Alpha 3, Alpha 4 and Alpha 5 purchases.
