🔍 Explore every detail of the TINS-3 platform

The TINS-3 represents the pinnacle of engineering in the field of compact tracked robots. Its lightweight yet robust aluminum construction is the basis for reliability and long life. The manufacturer has focused on maximum flexibility and therefore offers reserved positions for additional modules that can be easily integrated after removing the top plate. This mechanical expandability, together with 1-2-way 10-core aviation plugs and electrical expansion circuits (5V3A, 12V3A), significantly reduces the risk and complexity of implementing your own projects.

At the heart of TINS-3 are brushless motors with precision reduction and closed loop, which guarantee extremely precise control. The robot can rotate in place or move in spirals as needed, which is key for maneuvering in complex environments. The wireless mode allows control of up to 10 PWM servo signals, giving developers wide possibilities for integrating various peripherals and sensors.
