The SRMS [Station Remote Manipulator System] is a remotely controlled six degree-of-freedom payload handling device comprised of the following component sub-systems ... Linking the shoulder, elbow and wrist joints are the upper and lower arm booms. These booms are constructed of graphite-epoxy. The upper arm boom is approximately 5 m long by 33 cm in diameter comprising 16 plies of graphite-epoxy (each ply is .013 cm thick) for a total weight of just under 23 kg. The lower arm boom is approximately 5.8 m long by 33 cm in diameter comprising 11 plies of graphite-epoxy for a total weight of just over 22.7 kg. Each boom is protected with a Kevlar bumper (the same material used in bulletproof vests) to preclude the possibility of dents or scratches on the carbon composite. 1, record 1, English, - arm%20boom

Les segments relient les articulations de l'épaule, du coude et du poignet pour former la partie supérieure et inférieure du bras. Ceux-ci sont fabriqués de matériaux composites en graphite/époxy. Le segment supérieur mesure environ 5 m de longueur et 33 cm de diamètre. Il est formé de 16 couches de composite en graphite/époxy (chaque couche étant d'une épaisseur de 0,013 cm) et pèse un peu moins de 23 kg. L'avant-bras mesure 5,8 m de longueur et 33 cm de diamètre. Il est constitué de 11 couches de composite graphite/époxy et pèse 22,7 kg. Chaque segment est protégé par un revêtement en Kevlar (le même matériel utilisé pour la fabrication des gilets pare-balles) afin de prévenir les dommages éventuels (bosses et égratignures). 2, record 1, French, - segment%20du%20bras
