Robots come in a wide range of designs and base configurations. The three best-known types (kinematics) are: articulated robots, SCARA robots, and delta robots.
Articulated robots are probably the most well-known and widely used robots. They resemble a human arm and can handle payloads from a few hundred grams up to over 2,000 kg.
SCARA robots are also serial kinematics, meaning each joint builds on the previous one. However, the arm is horizontally aligned and usually consists of 4 axes: X, Y, Z, and rotation around Z. SCARA robots excel in fast and powerful pick-and-place applications, require little installation space, and are simple in design.
Delta robots use parallel kinematics and are thus the "exotics" among robot types. They are designed for very high speeds and small payloads and are often used in fast pick-and-place applications.
Robotics offers a growing number of advantages. Many processes can be automated economically, flexibly, quickly, and precisely using robots. In general, robots are categorized as either classic robots or collaborative robots (cobots).
Collaborative robots are designed to work directly with humans. Their main characteristic is the lack of a safety fence. Safety is ensured through various modes such as safe distance and speed monitoring with sensors, safe force and power monitoring of robot drives, and hand-guided mode.
Collaborative robotics is still relatively new and offers many advantages for specific applications. Depending on the mode, space can be saved, or the robot works directly alongside the operator, taking over repetitive tasks while the worker performs tasks that require human skills.
These robots, due to their power, speed, and safety requirements, are usually fenced off to prevent human contact during operation.
