i can only suggest that maybe the ( physical) load on the servo is too much..

how hewy is the arm? It might not be hewy for you but for the robot i could... i suggerst to use more powerfull servos (i think you use the most common ones(3kg\1cm) ) use like half stronger(6kg\1cm) this migt help. acctually change 2 or 3 servos closest to the robot.

hey... erm... act my robotic arm not so heavy...!!! not more than 1kg.....
yaya i used the cheap one.. for the servo motor....1!! erm..~~other than change to (6kg/cm).. is that other solution??

erm.. one thing i want to ask is.... my servo controller.. i wrtie the program myself... then.. i write the program each time the pulse is around 9 -11 second..... for the period.... but from the information that i get all is 15- 20 second for each pulse/.... so any different???

I'd take the servo off the arm. If it still shakes its a software problem. Otherwise, as mentioned before, its probably the weight of the load that is causing it to shake and you'll need either stronger servoes or better control. Try using a trapaziodal tradjectory. This will speed up and slow down the servo in a more predictable way. You should be able to get info on trapazoidal tradjectories on Google.
