2. What Are Industrial Robots
Robot arm used in a factory
environment for
manufacturing applications are
called industrial robot.
Traditional industrial robots
can be classified according to
different criteria:
1. Industrial robots with
various types of movements
2. Industrial robots for
different applications
3. Serial or parallel industrial
robots

3. 1. Industrial Robots With Different Types of
Movements
• Based on the type of
movements, industrial
robots can further
classified into following
categories:
– Cartesisn Robots
– Scara Robots
– 6-Axis Robots
– Redundant Robots
– Dual-arm Robots

4. 1.1. What are Cartesian Robots?
Robots that can do 3
translations with the help of
linear slide are called
Cartesian Robots.
General Architecture:

Working Principle:

5. 1.2. Scara Robots
Robots that can do 3
translations along with a
rotation around its vertical
axis are called Scara Robots

General Purpose Scara Robots

6. 1.3. 6-Axis Robots
Robots that can fully
position their tool in a
given position i.e. 3
translations and 3
orientations are called

General Purpose
Scara Robots

7. 1.4. Redundant Robots
Redundant robots can fully position their tool in a given
position.
Redundant robots can accommodate a given tool position
under different postures.

General Purpose
Redundant Robots

8. 2. Industrial Robots For Different Applications
Different Robots are created
based on the specific
requirements. Some of the
Robots created based on
specific requirements are:
1. Material Holding Robots
2. Welding Robots
3. Assembly Robots
4. Painting Robots
5. Palletizing Robots

9. 3. Serial or Parallel Industrial Robots
• Serial robots are one of the
most common. Series of
joints and linkages are used
to create base to the robot
tool.
• Parallel robots come in
many forms. Such industrial
robots are made in such a
way that you can close loops
from the base, to the tool
and back to the base again.
