Robot Components: The Robots Can Be Made Out of The Below Mentioned

The document discusses the main components of robots which include arms, end-effectors, actuators, sensors, controllers, and software and hardware. Arms and manipulators make up the anatomy of robots. End-effectors are the parts connected to arms that act as the robot's hands. Actuators power the joints and provide movement. Sensors recognize positions and gather surrounding data. Controllers manipulate sensor signals and provide understandable patterns to drives. Software and hardware process computations to derive motion.

ROBOT COMPONENTS

 The robots can be made out of the below mentioned


components designed and selected to suit the derived
specifications to fulfill the needs of a particular industrial
tasks of material handling, welding, painting, gluing and
assembly tasks.
Sl no Components Sl no Components
1 Arms 4 Sensors.
2 End-effectors. 5 Controllers.
3 Actuators. 6 Software and Hardware.

ROBOT COMPONENTS

1. ARMS.
The various links and joints make the anatomy of the robot
which are also known as manipulators.
Manipulators are the mechanical parts of a robot.

ROBOT COMPONENTS

2. End-effectors.
 The part that is connected to the end of the arm
constituting the robot hand is the end-effector which in
itself is different for different applications, like spray coat
gun, a welding electrode holder, part gripper, glue applying
device or a special purpose tool.

ROBOT COMPONENTS

3. Actuators.
 The joints of the robots are powered by actuators, that
produce, rotary or translatory movement in the links.
 The power delivering systems can be hydraulic or
pneumative drives, and servo-motors or stepper motors
which are direct drive types.

ROBOT COMPONENTS

4. Sensors.
These are the parts that recognise the robots position while in
movements or when static.
The further movements or action depend on the feedback of
the information collected by the sensors.
Sensors also perform the function of gathering data about it
surrounding (work cell) which aids in processing the task.
 The touch and tactile sensors, vision system, force sensors,
speech processors are some of the examples to the sensors.

ROBOT COMPONENTS

5. Controllers.
 These are electronic devices which manipulate the signals
from the sensors, to be provided to the drives in a
understandable pattern to produce actions.
 The action produced may be matching or may not be tallying
with the desired output.
 The deviation is fed back in the form of an error which
adjusts the reference input to a actuating signal.
 The control elements and the feed back elements constitute
the control system.

6
ROBOT COMPONENTS

6. Software and Hardware.


 A computer software and hardware process through
computation of the symbolic codes to derive the needed
purpose of position, speed and accuracy of motion obtained
by the kinematic equations.
 The monitors the peripherals and computer systems are the
hardware parts.
 The programming languages can be a low level language like
machine language or a high level language like the present
day high-level languages.
