Articulated RobotsSlide2
An articulated robot is a robot with rotary
joints (
e.g. a legged robot or an industrial robot). Articulated robots can range from simple two-jointed structures to systems with 10 or more interacting joints. They are powered by a variety of means,
such as electric motors.
What are they?Slide3
Have you ever seen those fancy car commercials with the mechanical arms?Well the TROBOT may have be featured in that commercial!
The TROBOT is the mechanical arms that is meant to work on assembly lines. (such as car lines)http://www.ispot.tv/ad/7lt_/

4.0…TROBOTSlide4
What’s the difference?????????
-
TROBOT 4.0 is designed to be stronger and slightly
smaller.- The TROBOTs 1-3 are very small they are miniature versions of the huge mechanical arms that you see in normal assembly lines.Smaller=MoreYou can fit more robots on assembly line is their 1\9 of the original sizeTROBOT 4.0?

4.0Slide5
The TROBOT has 6 degrees of movementSome of which… - rotate
-and hinge
Work envelope?Slide6
This robot really only has one end effector which is picking up objects and moving them (assembling) Also it can be programed to do other things based on what it necessary…
End Effector?Slide7
The TROBOT can preform its tasks by being controlled from a robot studioIt can be run with a virtual version of itself
It can also be programmed with a code to do a certain task
How???Slide8
Advantagethe TROBOT 4.0 is that it can’t
harm people
Disadvantage
Because of its size it can’t lift very heavy objects Advantages or Disadvantages Slide9
The TROBOT can create manufacturing jobs because their has to be someone to make the partsPeople also have to control the robots or stand beside for repairs
Another job can be programing
JobsSlide10
The TROBOT in the future may be able to draw or writeIt could also become a household robot because it could someday be able to sweep or clean
Maybe it will take over!!!!
Future…Slide11
The TROBOT 4.0 is still in the building process…
