1. Robot Anatomy and Motion

  • Robot anatomy is the physical structure of a robot, including its individual components and how they are arranged and interconnected.
  • A robot body may include sensors, actuators, motors, power sources, and computing units.
  • Robot structure affects agility, mobility, stability, durability, maintenance, and repair.

2. Joints and Their Types

  • Joints are essential parts of robot construction because they allow movement and flexibility.
  • A joint connects two links and provides controlled relative movement between them.
  • Revolute joints are also known as hinge joints or rotary joints.

3. Links, Topology, and Base

  • A link is a rigid part that joins two or more joints to create a robot arm or other mechanism.
  • Links are basic building blocks of robot structure.
  • Links can be classified based on shape and also based on motion capabilities.

4. Robot Configurations

  • Robot configurations are defined by the type of joint movement they use.
  • Cartesian Robot Configuration moves linearly along the X, Y, and Z axes.
  • FANUC M-20iA has a Cartesian configuration.
