Z1 is Unitree’s own lightweight 6-axis robotic arm — a compact research and education platform, separate from the company’s better-known legged quadrupeds and humanoids.
The mechanism
Six revolute joints in series form a textbook 6-axis arm — no mimic joints, no closed loops, every movable joint an independent actuator.
