Know what you are replacing
Version and fault checks are planned to keep the kit limited to a measured gear problem rather than any stuck arm.

ArmMend / For Eilik ↗
Could one tiny part bring Eilik's arm back to the dance?
If your Eilik's arm buzzes but will not lift, a damaged servo gear is one possible cause. ArmMend proposes a replacement micro gear and organizer for a repairer to use if the fault and part fit are confirmed. It is unbuilt, untested and not for sale.
- A part matched to a confirmed fault
- Tiny gears kept in order
- A focused option for an Eilik you want to keep

Sound familiar?
The screen lights up. One arm stays still.
You try a restart and watch Eilik move again, but the same arm sits motionless or makes a grinding sound. The next step is knowing what actually failed and whether support, a complete servo or a small-part repair makes sense.
For an out-of-warranty Eilik with a confirmed gear failure, a future ArmMend pack could put the measured part and a numbered gear tray in one place. A qualified repairer could keep the tiny pieces organized, fit the right gear and check the arm's movement before returning the robot to use.
Would this help your setup? →Designed with your day in mind
A more orderly path for the right repair.
These are design goals for a future kit; no gear fit, repair result or durability has been demonstrated.
Keep tiny pieces in place
A numbered tray is intended to reduce confusion while an experienced repairer works through the gear train.
Keep the same Eilik
If a compatible repair proves successful, the owner could keep their robot rather than replace it. That outcome has not been tested with this concept.
Picture the routine
Diagnose the arm. Match the gear. Check the movement.
Here is how the proposed design would fit into your day.
- 01
Check warranty status and ask Energize Lab support about the symptom before opening the robot.
- 02
If a qualified repairer confirms the exact gear fault and version, compare a future measured ArmMend part with the existing service and servo options.
- 03
If testing validates the kit, a repairer would organize the tiny gear train, fit the part and check movement before normal use.

Before you join
A few things you might be wondering.
Want to explore the evidence or build something like this?
Read the Eilik product idea report ↗Will it fix any arm that makes noise?
No. A motor, cable, controller or other part may be responsible. The proposed first kit would only address a measured gear fault in a confirmed compatible standard Eilik arm servo.
Does this fit Eilik Silver or every Eilik revision?
No fit has been tested. The initial research focuses on the standard Eilik with EM3 servos. Eilik Silver is advertised with an EM3A system and is outside the proposed first scope.
Should I open an Eilik that may still be under warranty?
Contact Energize Lab support first. ArmMend is being explored for diagnosed out-of-warranty repairs by people equipped for fine mechanism work; opening a robot can cause damage and may affect available service options.
Is ArmMend an Energize Lab product?
No. ArmMend is an independent concept that has not been built, tested, endorsed or offered for sale. Joining the interest list expresses interest only.
What still needs to be tested?
- ArmMend is an independent, unbuilt and untested concept, unavailable for purchase or reservation and not endorsed by Energize Lab.
- A stuck or noisy arm is not proof of a broken gear. Version fit, mechanical durability and installation safety have not been verified; Silver EM3A variants are outside the first proposed scope.
- Contact manufacturer support for a robot that may be covered by service or warranty. Any future gear repair would require a qualified person and might affect service options.
