The arm is being worked on by the robotics group (more help welcome) and the plan is to turn it into a cnc/3d printer/plasma cutting machine and open up to the general membership once safe to do so.

** High speed orbital photography
** CNC (Dependent on the [[Equipment/Staubli/gdmux|G-code interpreter]])
** PCB manufacture:
*** Milling
*** Drilling
*** solder paste application for SMT components
*** pick and place for SMT components
