…as dispensing, screwdriving, and engraving. The accuracy, flexibility, and precision of SCARA robots enable them to perform demanding industrial tasks that require excellent repeatability. Their payload capacity allows them to be used for assembly or transfer of heavy workpieces, especially in the automotive industry. The majority of these operations are challenging for humans or lighter robots to perform, but SCARA can offer high performance at a low cost. The increased demand for high-precision manufacturing processes led to new robots. In the past few months, major automation players have unveiled next-generation SCARA robots (see slideshow at right). These competitive offerings allow…

…in diameter and delicately hold 10-0 to 12-0 sutures. Precision in microsurgery is important as it involves suturing arteries, veins, ducts, and nerves.These procedures require high visual magnification, specialized instruments, and advanced fine motor skills, the company noted. MMI said the Symani System has allowed surgeons to have better surgical precision when manually suturing extremely small vessels. The new Supermicro NanoWrist instruments build on that work and allow for even greater precision in smaller spaces, according to the company. Real-world use case Dr. Simon Enzinger, a surgeon at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the University Hospital Salzburg,…

…is difficult for them to guarantee the high-speed and high-precision performance requirements of most robotics applications. Researchers seek ways to reduce vibrations Some speed reducers have the characteristics of small size and almost no “dead end.” However, compared with more rigid robot body structures, the rigidity of the reducer is relatively much weaker, so it can become a major source of joint flexibility. As a consequence, lightweight robot manipulators feature increased mechanical joint flexibility, compared to the traditional heavy and rigid industrial robots. Researchers find that the flexibility is located mainly in the joint gears consisting of strain-wave gears and…
