Industrial robotic arms belong to the fields of automation, industry and Factory 4.0 as well as robots. They are mechanical arms that are used in factories and production facilities to make work processes more efficient, faster and more precise. Industrial robotic arms often perform tasks such as welding, assembling, painting or even packaging products.
An industrial robotic arm consists of several joints and limbs, similar to a human arm. It can be programmed to move precisely and perform the same task repeatedly - usually faster and more accurately than a human.
An illustrative example: In a car factory, industrial robot arms assemble the doors and weld body parts together. This means that each vehicle can be produced identically, increasing quality and making production more economical.
The use of industrial robotic arms also helps companies to reduce costs and deploy skilled labour for more complex tasks. For many companies, this means remaining competitive and taking their production processes to the next level. Industrial robotic arms are therefore an important component of modern manufacturing.
