Industrial robot industrial automation - firm executor
A robot is a mechanical device that performs work automatically. It can accept human commands, run pre-programmed programs, and act according to principles and programs formulated with artificial intelligence technology. Its task is to assist or replace human jobs, such as production, construction, or dangerous jobs. Robots are generally composed of actuators, driving devices, detection devices, control systems and complex machinery.
Industrial robots are generally used in factories. The most notable features of industrial robots are as follows:
(1) Programmable. A further development of production automation is flexible start-up. The industrial robot can be reprogrammed according to the needs of its working environment, so it can play a very good role in the flexible manufacturing process of small batch and multi-variety with balanced and high efficiency, and it is an important part of the flexible manufacturing system.
(2) Personification. Industrial robots have human-like walking, waist turning, big arm, forearm, wrist, grasping and other parts in the mechanical structure, and there is a computer in the control. In addition, intelligent industrial robots have many human-like "biosensors", such as skin-type contact sensors, force sensors, load sensors, visual sensors, acoustic sensors, language functions, etc. Sensors improve the adaptability of industrial robots to their surroundings.
(3) Universality. In addition to specially designed special-purpose industrial robots, general industrial robots have good versatility in performing different tasks. For example, by replacing the hand end manipulator (hand gripper, etc.) of an industrial robot, different tasks can be performed.
(4) The disciplines involved in industrial machine technology are quite extensive, which can be summed up as a combination of mechanics and microelectronics - electromechanical technology. The third-generation intelligent robot not only has various sensors to obtain external environmental information, but also has artificial intelligence such as memory ability, language understanding ability, image recognition ability, reasoning and judgment ability, which are the application of microelectronic technology, especially computer technology applications are closely related. Therefore, the development of robotics will surely drive the development of other technologies, and the development and application level of robotics can also verify the development level of a country's science and technology and industrial technology.
Today's industrial robot technology is gradually developing in the direction of having the ability to act, to have a variety of perception capabilities, and to have a strong ability to adapt to the operating environment. Currently, the countries with the greatest influence on the development of global robotics are the United States and Japan. The United States is still in a leading position in the comprehensive research level of industrial robot technology, while the industrial robots produced in Japan rank first in the world in terms of quantity and type.
(1) The technologically advanced industrial robot integrates advanced manufacturing technologies such as precision, flexibility, intelligence, and software application development. Quality, cost reduction, reduction of resource consumption and environmental pollution are the best manifestation of the level of industrial automation.
(2) Technological upgrade I industry robots and complete sets of automation equipment have the technical characteristics of fine manufacturing, fine processing and flexible production. An important means of production digitization, automation, networking and intelligence.
(3) Wide range of applications Industrial robots and complete sets of automation equipment are key equipment in the production process, which can be used in manufacturing, installation, testing, logistics and other production links, and are widely used in automobiles and auto parts, construction machinery, rail transit, Low-voltage electrical appliances, electric power, IC equipment, military red, tobacco, finance, medicine, metallurgy, printing and publishing and many other industries, the application fields are very broad.
(4) Industrial robots and automation complete sets of technology with strong comprehensiveness, which concentrate and integrate a number of disciplines and involve a number of technical fields, including industrial robot control technology, robot dynamics and simulation, robot construction finite element analysis, and laser processing technology , modular programming, intelligent measurement, modeling and processing-integration, factory automation and advanced manufacturing technologies such as fine logistics, the technology is comprehensive.
