The Market Mechanics of Industrial Robots

An industrial robot is a production robot system. Industrial robots operate on three or more axes and are fully automated and programmable. Typically these robots are used for welding, painting, assembly, pick-up and placement, packaging and labeling, palletizing, item inspection and testing; all of this process is done with high endurance, velocity, and accuracy.

 Some robots are programmed with a high degree of precision and to faithfully perform particular activities over and over again. These activities are determined by programmed routines specifying a sequence of coordinated motion, direction, speed, deceleration, and distance.

 The industrial robotics market is presently experiencing robust development due to the manufacturing capacity and assist in heavy payload lifting. The automotive industry is one of the main sectors where industrial robots are utilized, and it can be expected to expand steadily in the years ahead.

Factors Driving the Market

  · Increased demand for low-cost industrial robots 

 · Increasing need to cut operating costs in manufacturing plants 

 · Continuing trend towards automation and continued innovative technical improvements in industrial robots

 · Implementing robotic solutions in the heavy industry to achieve the operational flexibility needed to meet various product demands

  Types of Industrial Robots

The industrial robots market is enormous and is rising rapidly. The underlying technology is changing just as quickly. It can be hard to maintain up with the rapid pace of change in the robotics sector, but it's an excellent beginning to understand the kinds of industrial robots and the advantages they provide.

 ·        Cartesian robots

A cartesian coordinate robot is an industrial robot whose three main control axes are linear and at correct angles to each other. The three sliding joints correspond to the up-down, in-out, back-forth motion of the wrist.

·        Cylindrical robots

Cylindrical robots are robots whose axes form a scheme of cylindrical coordinates. The majority of Cylindrical robots consists of two moving components: rotary and linear actuators. Machine developers could pick them for their space economy because they have a cylindrical work envelope. The robot can be put in the center of a workspace and can operate anywhere around it because of its rotational component.

·        Spherical robots

Spherical robots, are stationary robot arms with spherical or near-sphere job envelopes that can be placed in a polar coordinate system. Typically a spherical robot consists of a spherical shell that serves as the robot's body and an Inner Driving Unit (IDU) that allows the robot to move.

·        SCARA

SCARA is an acronym for the Selective Compliance Articulated Robot Arm, meaning that it is X-Y compliant and Z-axis stiff. The SCARA setup is unique and intended to manage a range of activities in material handling. They are all-in-onene robots, meaning that a SCARA robot, apart from end-of-arm tools, comes with x, y, z and rotary movement in a single set.

·        Articulated robots

An articulated robot is a robot with rotary joints. Articulated robots range from the basic two-articled structure to systems with 10 or more interacting joints.

  What Future Holds:

 Despite high initial expenses, industrial robots generate a strong return on investment (ROI). Rapidly add up the productivity gains from effectiveness, consistency, and decreased working expenses – part of what has made industrial robots so popular among producers over the previous decade.

 Reducing operating costs can be accomplished by reducing manufacturing workflow mistakes, wasting raw materials, and improving operational flexibility. Implementing robotic alternatives in the industry will prove to be an effective way to reduce these operating costs, which in turn will increase the OEMs ' profitability.

 Industrial robot market is currently dominated by players from Japan, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, United States and Korea.
