In industrial environments, simplicity and low cost are the guiding principles for actuator design. Therefore, simple devices such as opening and closing grippers are widely used. This situation has led to the development of specialized equipment over the years that can only perform a single specific operation and is unsuitable for other tasks. At this time, dexterous multi-fingered robotic hands have not been applied to any major production fields due to issues such as reliability, complexity, and cost.
The characteristics of industrial robot control systems make them widely applicable in fields such as automotive manufacturing (welding, painting), 3C electronics (assembly, inspection), logistics warehousing (sorting, palletizing), and metal processing (cutting, grinding). For example, in automotive body-in-white welding, high precision and real-time performance ensure weld quality; in 3C small parts assembly, openness and intelligence adapt to the needs of multi-variety, small-batch production.
