Hello there.
I live in Greece and i’m interesting of doing a project and use a SES arm, lifting 17gr. of a plastic. I want to Pick and Place aprox. 8 pieces of this plastic per minute. Could this be possible for this ses arm to operate 8 hours every day five time a week? Or my servos would burn? What about the gears? Should i change them to aluminum or the hubs maybe? Or i better forget the project?

Thank you all

The arm could probably take it but the servos will not. Not even the robot servos.

To run for 8 hours straight, 5 days a week, you would have to look at stepper motors and industrial robotic arm applications.
