The aim of this paper is to describe the method and the components used to build a simple and low-cost SCARA robot with Laser Engraver. SCARA stands for Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm, which is a kind of industrial Robot that is often used for pick-and-place tasks. The Laser Engraving process is a complex work that needs high accuracy and precision in engraving intricate designs or lettering on various materials. This paper focuses on engraving on the wood surface, which needs flexibility and versatility that will help in making different designs. For this purpose, the SCARA robot is combined with the Laser Engraver. It will help make accurate and highly precise design paths that the laser will trace and engrave on the wood surface, by using the G-code and M-code instructions for the path of engraving. The paper also examines the technical analysis of the assembly process of the SCARA robot and the Laser Engraver, as well as future work to enhance the performance and functionality of the robot.
