Working of a Basic Pick N Place Robot

•    They are faster and can get the work done in seconds compared to their human counterparts.
•    They are flexible and have the appropriate design.
•    They are accurate.
•    They increase the safety of the working environment and actually never get tired.

before moving further, let us see few reasons why pick and place robots are preferred

Advantages                                          

  Pick and place robot is the one which is used to pick up an object and place it in the desired location. It can be a cylindrical robot providing movement in horizontal, vertical and rotational axes, a spherical robot providing two rotational and one linear movement, an articulate robot or a scara robot (fixed robots with 3 vertical axes rotary arms).

         The basic function of a pick and place robot is done by its joints. Joints are analogous to human joints and are used to join the two consecutive rigid bodies in the robot. They can be rotary joint or linear joint. To add a joint to any link of a robot, we need to know about the degrees of freedom and degrees of movement for that body part. Degrees of freedom implement the linear and rotational movement of the body and Degrees of movement imply the number of axis the body can move.
