What is Industrial Robot?
Robot is a multifunctional manipulator designed to move material, parts, tools, or specialized devices through various programmed motion to accomplish various tasks.
An Industrial robot is an automatically controlled, reprogrammable, multipurpose manipulator, programmable in three or more axes.
Brief History of Robotics
• Robot, first used in Karel Capek’s play – Rossum’s Universal Robots, made from biological
parts– Czech word Robota, meaning work,1921
• Humanoids:-Shaping public perception– Metropolis (1926)– Electro & Sparko (NY World’s Fair 1939)– C3P0 (Start Wars, 1977)– Data (Star Trek NG, 1990’s)
Industrial Robots:- early history
• Industrial Automation– Spinning Jenny (1764)– Cartwright’s Loom (1784)– Jaquard Loom’s punched cards (1801)– Ford’s production line (1920’s)
Industrial Robots:- late history
• Computer Numeric Controlled (CNC) machines• Tele-operated manipulators• Unimation Inc’s, industrial robot (1959)• General 3-axis manipulators (1974)
Robot Classification Robotic manipulator: a collection of links inter- connected by flexible joints. At the end of the
Robot there is a tool or end-effector.• Drive Technology. Which source of power drives
the joints of the robot.• Work-envelope geometries. Points in space which
can be reached by the end-effector.• Motion control method. Either point-to-point or
continuous path
Robot Types
Commonly used Robot configurations are:-I. Articulated RobotsII. SCARA RobotsIII. Cartesian Coordinate Robots
Features
• A computer is used to control the device.• A ‘program’ can be changed to meet new
situations.• As the manufacturing process changes, the
modern robotic system can simply be reprogrammed.
• It does not have to be totally rebuilt.

Programming Industrial Robots
• Well defined environments– may not need sensors if position of objects known
• Precise movements– allows high precision work
• Safety Issues– keep away from humans
Robot Programming
• The setup or programming of motions and sequences for an industrial robot is controlled by a Laptop or Desktop Computer.
• REQUIREMENT:SoftwareReach PendentLead-by-the-Nose
Factors Affecting Robot Usefulness
o Payload Speed o Accuracyo Actuation -
Pneumatics for fast movements…
o Hydraulic for heavy loads…
o Electric drives for economy.
• Price of equipment• Time to setup• Cost to program• Maintenance
schedule• Hours of operation
