About Niryo
Niryo develops compact six-axis robot arms for technical education and light industrial automation. Ned2 and its classroom ecosystem let students learn programming, control and machine vision through Blockly, Python, ROS and NiryoStudio. Interchangeable grippers, vacuum tools, conveyors and a vision kit turn the arm into a small production line for picking, sorting, assembly and process exercises.
Ned3 Pro applies the same accessible programming approach to professional work such as machine loading, filling, weighing, inspection, finishing and material handling. The seven-kilogram arm occupies a 20-by-20-centimetre floor footprint and is delivered as a turnkey package that Niryo can install into an existing process. Software releases, robot models and ROS interfaces are maintained through the company's download centre. Niryo combines arm manufacturing, accessories, programming tools, training and deployment support, serving schools, research laboratories and smaller manufacturers that need a compact automation cell.
