An articulated robot is a type of robot with rotary joints. These joints allow for a wide range of motion, similar to a human arm. Articulated robots are commonly used in industrial settings for tasks that require precise, flexible, and repetitive movements.
Here are some key features and components:
- Joints (Axes): Articulated robots typically have four to six axes, though they can have more. Each axis adds a degree of freedom, allowing for more complex movements.
- End Effector: This is the tool attached to the end of the robot arm that interacts with the environment. It can be a gripper, welding torch, paint sprayer, or any other tool required for the task.
- Control System: This system includes the hardware and software that control the robot’s movements. It receives input from sensors and sends commands to the motors in the joints.
- Power Supply: Provides the necessary power to operate the robot. It can be electrical, hydraulic, or pneumatic.
- Sensors: These can include position sensors, force sensors, vision systems, and more. They provide feedback to the control system to ensure accurate and safe operation.
