        @aishwarya poojary Can you create a new topic on the RobotShop Forum and include an image or drawing of the setup?

        @Khaled Refer to the tutorial to see which assumptions were made. This is a “worst case” scenario where the arm needs to support an object at maximum reach.

        Very insightful. Do you have any ideas about a program that can calculate the torque required to actuate a joint? Thank you.

        @Bruno Akinjide Orisanaiye We do not have a specific program, but it’s all a question for force times distance.
