BCN3D Moveo
Based on published sources · Not tested by us ·
Overview
A printed educational robot arm with CAD, firmware, BOM and assembly documents in one source repository. [S001]
Moveo's repository brings together CAD, printable STL files, a bill of materials, firmware and a user manual. Its intended use is education across mechanical design, automation and programming. The source tree provides more than a visual model, but it still requires a builder to reconcile the parts and electronics. [S001] [S004]

Assembly and use
Source release does not mean a current kit offer
BCN3D's overview says the project was released for the community rather than commercialized by BCN3D. Do not read that historical statement as proof that a present-day kit, replacement-parts service or support contract is available. This review establishes no current supplier offer. [S001]
Start with BOM/BCN3D Moveo BOM.pdf and USER MANUAL at reviewed commit 0866a92501277636f76000a195d8a16d44b5b476, alongside its CAD and firmware. Mixing later third-party modifications into that collection would require another compatibility check. The root license is MIT; it does not license separately purchased components or establish their current availability. [S002] [S003] [S004]
The overview reports an assembly workshop involving 15 institutes. That is useful historical context, not an independently verified current user base. Current build cost, successful calibration and our support effort remain unmeasured. [S001]
Cost
No current, complete configuration-specific build cost has been established for this profile.
Source files and licenses
Available project sources support research coverage; complete build and commercial qualification remain separate.
| Layer | Availability / license |
|---|---|
| mechanical design | available · MIT Repository root license; purchased components and third-party materials require separate checks. [S001] [S004] [S003] |
| electronics | not found · License not fully assessed No complete artifact for this layer established in the inspected primary repository overview and archive inventory. External component/dependency sources require separate collection; this is not a claim of closed source. [S001] [S004] |
| firmware | available · MIT Repository-level license; dependency licenses and controller compatibility still need inspection. [S001] [S004] [S003] |
| software | not found · License not fully assessed No complete artifact for this layer established in the inspected primary repository overview and archive inventory. External component/dependency sources require separate collection; this is not a claim of closed source. [S001] [S004] |
| documentation | available · MIT Repository source documents; no permission inferred for external material. [S001] [S004] [S003] |
This profile covers the described physical configuration and control route without a particular learned policy or dataset.
