Optimising control and design for industrial robotics
With the rise of factory automation, robotics has become increasingly important in the production of goods. Robotics can increase manufacturing efficiency, reduce cost and increase quality. Globally, manufacturers are relying increasingly on robotics to churn out products with increased speed and consistency.
This whitepaper serves as an introduction to industrial robots in general and more specifically about robot control units. It covers some important applications and system technologies that would help understand how industrial robots control units are architected.
Applications that benefit from industrial robots are product assembly, material handling, machine tool management, packaging, welding and logistics. Logistics robots especially have become increasingly important in online retail. These are autonomous robots that assist in gathering items for shipment from warehouse inventory, and efficiently enable shipment.
