Industrial Robot Arm

 

Find Suppliers by Category

Industrial robots are programmable manipulators that contain rotary and/or prismatic joints in order to perform precise, repetitive movements. They are designed to move parts, tools, materials, and devices through variable, programmed motions. Types of products include articulated, Cartesian, cylindrical, gantry, parallel (hexapods), SCARA, and spherical robots.

  • Force/torque sensors help industrial robots make the right moves
    Knowing what load levels robots exert is key to more repeatable, safer operation. Feedback from force/torque sensors (black cylinder mounted on arm end) gives robots the delicate touch needed for operations such as this camera function test. An industrial PC controls the robot and documents test
  • Service Robots: Robots in Service Gain Independence
    Fiction and reality become blurred. What was once science fiction is increasingly taking solid shape. Meanwhile, robots have a firm grip on industrial production. In Germany alone, more than 50,000 robots are employed in the automotive sector - kept in cages to carry out their assigned tasks day
  • Shake hands with a robot
    Graspers that mimic human dexterity may open new doors for industrial robots. Three articulated fingers of the BarrettHand spread and conform to various shapes. The TorqueSwitch mechanism in cutaway BarrettHand's eight articulating joints can grasp objects of various sizes in almost any orientation
  • Robots get fired up
    . Meanwhile, power electronics and servomotor processing are being distributed into the body of the robot. The first robots used hydraulic drives and mechanical timer-based controls. Since then, industrial robots have evolved quite a bit. Robots nowadays generally consist of three major subsystems

  • Case Study: Eye Robot
    robots have the disadvantantage of being very capital-intensive and reprogrammable only with great effort. For that reason, they are only profitable when used for large serial-capacity production, and they are not particularly known for their flexibility. Industrial robot pi4_workerbot sees with AVT
  • Ford has a better idea: Open controls for robotic arms
    find a technology that reduces the cost of even a small part of these areas, there are major savings.". RWT controllers, called URCs for Universal Robot Controller, are configured in two parts. An industrial PC serves as an operator interface and host controller for up to 32 axes. A second box
  • Air spring key to robot handler
    nightmare. The system had to be flexible, compact, lightweight, and able to withstand harsh operating conditions. Luzenac America, a worldwide manufacturer of talc for industrial and cosmetic use, turned to 15-in.-diameter air springs from Firestone Industrial, Carmel, Ind., to resolve key system
