Product Features
Arm Orientation
With two types of the arm orientation (lefty hand orientation and righty hand orientation), M1 Pro can move to nearly any position and orientation within a given work envelope. You need to specify the arm orientation when M1 Pro is moving. If you fail to do so, M1 Pro may move following an unexpected path, resulting in interference with peripheral equipment. The arm orientations are shown in Figure 2.7 and Figure 2.8.

Coordinate System
2.8.2.1 Joint Coordinate System
The Joint coordinate system is determined by the motion joints.
Figure 2.9 shows the Joint coordinate system of a M1 Pro robot. All the joints are rotating joints.
M1 Pro contains four joints.
• J1, J2, and J4 are the rotating joints, which are located and oriented in the horizontal plane. And their axes are parallel to each other. The positive direction of these joints is counter-clockwise.
Issue V1.1 (2021-07-08) User Guide Copyright © Yuejiang Technology Co., Ltd 12
Dobot M1 PRO Hardware User Guide
• J3 is the moving joint, which is used for the movement of the end effector in the perpendicular plane. The positive direction of J3 is vertical upward.
Figure 2.9 Joint coordinate of a M1 Pro robot
2.8.2.2 Base Coordinate System
The Base coordinate system is determined by the base. Figure 2.10 shows the Base coordinate system of M1 Pro robot.
• The origin is the axes center of the motor of Rear Arm where Rear Arm is dropped to the bottom of the Z-axis screw.
• The direction of X-axis is perpendicular to the base forward.
• The direction of Y-axis is perpendicular to the base leftward.
• The direction of Z-axis is vertical upward, which is based on the right-hand rule.

2.8.2.3 Tool Coordinate System
Tool coordinate system is the coordinate system that defines the distance and rotation angle of the offset, of which the origin and orientations vary with the position and attitude of the workpiece located at the robot flange. The 10 types of tool coordinate systems can be defined. Tool 0 coordinate system is the predefined Tool coordinate system which is located at the robot flange without end effector and cannot be changed. And the others can be customized by users. Figure 2.11 shows the default Tool coordinate system of a M1 Pro robot.
