The term arm manipulator belongs primarily to the categories of robots, industry and factory 4.0 as well as automation. An arm manipulator is a special robotic arm that has been developed to perform very specific tasks that were previously often carried out by humans. These tasks can be very different, for example gripping and moving components, carrying out welding work or sorting products on a conveyor belt.
An arm manipulator looks a bit like a human arm: it can rotate, bend and stretch and is often used in factories, where precision and fast work are particularly important. Modern arm manipulators can often be programmed so that they can perform many different tasks as required.
An illustrative example can be found in a car factory, where an arm manipulator is used to move heavy car parts from one place to the next or even to assemble them directly on the car. This ensures greater safety and efficiency because the machines work without a break and reduce errors.
Thanks to automation with arm manipulators, companies can produce faster, safer and often more cost-effectively.
