What is the difference between industrial robots industrial automation equipment

1. Differences in meaning

Industrial robots are multi-joint manipulators multi-degree-of-freedom machine devices for the industrial field. They can automatically perform tasks rely on their own power control capabilities to achieve various functions. They can accept human commands can also run according to pre-programmed programs. Modern industrial robots can also act according to the guidelines formulated by artificial intelligence technology.

Industrial automation is the control of various parameters in industrial production to achieve various process controls. In the entire industrial production, human operations are reduced as much as possible, power other than animals various information are fully utilized to carry out production operations. This is called industrial automated production, the process that enables industry to carry out automatic production is called industrial automation.

2. Differences in characteristics

The characteristic of industrial robots is that they are programmable. The further development of production automation is flexible activation anthropomorphism. Industrial robots have human-like parts in mechanical structure computers in control; industrial robots have good versatility in performing different tasks. The disciplines involved in industrial machine technology are quite broad, which can be summarized as the combination of mechanics microelectronics - mechatronics technology.

The characteristics of industrial automation are highly automated procedures that do require manual operation; high operating efficiency, which improves the production efficiency of the enterprise; the production process of the entire process is stable, which improves the consistency of products; it is suitable for mass production reduces the production cost of the enterprise.

3. Differences in usage

Typical applications of industrial robots include welding, painting, assembly, picking placing (such as packaging, palletizing SMT), product inspection testing, etc.; all operations are completed with efficiency, durability, speed accuracy.

Automation equipment is widely used in manufacturing, food production lines, electronic electrical packaging production lines. It also plays an important role in agriculture, logistics other industries.
