Inhaltsangabe

This introductory text comprehensively covers the manipulator and the basic geometries used on robotic systems; electric motor drive systems and hydraulic pneumatic drive systems; communication between components in workshell and communication to host computers. Full coverage of interfacing, end-of-arm tooling, sensors and vision systems is included, and the final chapter focuses on retraining, economic considerations, and workers' fears concerning robots. As with computer controlled devices, programming is discussed throughout the text and includes the latest technology, incorporating a variety of contemporary robotic systems from industry. Changes to the second edition include a discussion of SCARA ROBOTS, aspects of safety included throughout the text and an additional chapter added, identifying the fundamentals of communication as used between robot controller and peripheral devices within the workcell. This book should be of interest to degree and diploma students on courses covering the operation of robotic systems in departments of electrical and electronic engineering.
