An industrial robot arm is “a stationary or mobile machine whose structure typically consists of a series of interconnected or relatively sliding components, used to grasp or move objects. It features automatic control, programmable operation, and multiple degrees of freedom (axes). Its mode of operation primarily involves linear motion along the X, Y, and Z axes to reach a target position.”
