What Are Industrial Robots?

What Are Industrial Robots?

Image: Shutterstock Industrial robots are automated machines for the use of manufacturing. Typically, these multipurpose machines consist of at least one reprogrammable robotic arm, or a manipulator, that operates on three axes or more. The widespread implementation of industrial robots in warehouses and on factory assembly lines can be credited to their ability to execute repetitive tasks at rapid speeds with high precision and no breaks. What Are Industrial Robots?

Industrial robots are heavy-duty machines designed to automate the manufacturing process.

Due to the nature of the work they perform, “industrial robots must be strong, fast and accurate,” Nadia Figueroa, […]
