Definition and Applications of Industrial Robotic Arms

Release date:

2023-03-07

An electromechanical system that simulates human hand and arm movements operates according to the principle of electromechanical coupling and follows a master–slave control scheme. Consequently, it functions merely as an extension of the human hand and arm, lacking autonomous capabilities and remaining subordinate to the host equipment. It performs simple, repetitive tasks with fixed operating procedures, involving operations at unchanging positioning points. Industrial robots are extensively used in manufacturing, broadly encompassing the following applications: ① Achieving single-machine automation: automating the loading and unloading of workpieces on various types of semi-automatic machine tools. ② Forming automated production lines: building upon single-machine automation, automatic workpiece handling and conveying enable multiple machines to be interconnected into fully automated production lines. ③ Operating in specialized environments: in conditions such as high temperatures (e.g., heat treatment, forging, casting), toxic or hazardous settings, space exploration, or seabed resource extraction, robotic systems—whether automated or remotely controlled—are employed to perform tasks in place of humans.

It is designed for simple, repetitive tasks with fixed operating procedures and unchanging positioning points. Industrial robotic arms are extensively used in manufacturing, broadly encompassing the following applications:

① Achieve standalone automation: automatic loading and unloading for various semi-automatic machine tools.

② Formation of automated production lines: Building on the foundation of standalone machine automation, automated loading/unloading and workpiece handling can link multiple individual machines into an integrated automated production line.

③ Special working environments: In settings such as high temperatures (e.g., heat treatment, forging, casting), toxic or hazardous conditions, space exploration, and seabed resource development, robotic arms—whether automated or remotely controlled—are employed to perform tasks in place of human operators.
