Service Robots: Robots in Service Gain Independence
From schunk-usa.com
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 after day. Now the next step is about to happen: robots seek the path to independence, thus transcending even the limits of the imagination.
 


Products & Services
Industrial robots are programmable mechanical devices that contain rotary and/or prismatic joints in order to perform precise, repetitive movements. Types of industrial robots include articulated, Cartesian, cylindrical, gantry, parallel (hexapods), SCARA, and spherical.
Cable laying services install fiber optic cable or copper cable in buildings and office complexes, or over large distances.
Teach pendants are a specific type of industrial pendant. They are devices equipped with switches and dials used to control a robot's movements to and from desired points within a determined space.
Robotic end effectors are quick-change mobile robotic systems that can deploy tools.
Specialty fasteners are other specialized or proprietary fasteners or fastening products.
