Advantages of Parallel Robots Parallel robots (also known as delta robots or spider robots) offer several distinct advantages over traditional serial robots (such as articulated or SCARA robots). These advantages make them the preferred choice for specific high-speed, high-precision applications. I. Speed and Dynamic Performance Extremely High Speed and Acceleration Description: Parallel robots achieve very high speeds (often >10 m/s) and accelerations (up to 10-15 G or more) due to their lightweight moving platform and fixed, heavy motors. Benefit: Ideal for high-throughput applications like pick-and-place, sorting, and packaging. Short Pick-and-Place Cycle Times Description: Typical cycle times for a 300mm pick-and-place operation range from 0.3 to 0.5 seconds. Benefit: Significantly faster […]

A delta robot is widely used in automation lines. It offers high speed and stable performance. In this guide, you will learn how to design a delta robot system. We will also explain the key components using a real setup. What Is a Delta Robot A delta robot uses a parallel arm structure. Three arms connect the base and the end tool. Because of this design, the robot moves fast and smoothly. It is often used in the food, packaging, and electronics industries. Main Components of a Delta Robot System A complete system includes more than the robot. It also needs feeding and control units. Hopper First, the hopper stores […]
Delta robots, known for their precision and speed, have revolutionized industries ranging from packaging to electronics. But have you ever wondered where these remarkable machines were created? Understanding the origin of the delta robot can help you appreciate the innovation behind it, as well as its journey into modern industrial applications. Where Was the Delta Robot First Developed? The delta robot was first developed in the early 1980s by Belgian engineer Reymond Clavel. His goal was to create a faster and more efficient robotic arm that could improve productivity in manufacturing environments. This innovation quickly gained attention for its speed and versatility. Who Were the Early Pioneers Behind the Delta […]
I. Articulated Robots Structure: Multiple rotary joints (typically 6 axes), resembling a human arm. Characteristics: High flexibility, large workspace, ability to reach around obstacles. Applicable Machines/Machinery: Welding Machines: Spot welding, arc welding cells. Painting Booths: Automated spray painting systems. Machine Tools: CNC machine tending for milling, turning centers. Assembly Lines: Complex assembly stations (e.g., automotive final assembly). II. SCARA Robots Structure: Two parallel rotary joints + one linear Z-axis. Characteristics: High speed, rigid in vertical direction, compact footprint. Applicable Machines/Machinery: Pick-and-Place Machines: High-speed placement in packaging, electronics assembly. Screw Driving Machines: Automated fastening stations. Dispensing Machines: Adhesive, sealant, or solder paste application. Assembly Workstations: Small parts assembly (e.g., electronics, appliances). […]
Spider robots (high-speed parallel robots) are renowned for their exceptional speed and acceleration, making them the ideal choice for high-speed pick-and-place applications. I. Typical Speed Range Performance Metric Typical Value Standard Pick-and-Place Cycle 0.3 to 0.5 seconds per cycle (including picking, moving, and placing) Maximum Pick Rate Up to 200 picks per minute or more, depending on part size and travel distance Acceleration Up to 100 m/s² (10 G) or higher Maximum Travel Speed Typically up to 10 m/s II. Factors Influencing Speed The actual achievable speed depends on several variables: Payload: Heavier parts reduce achievable acceleration and speed. Standard ratings are typically for lightweight items (grams to a few hundred grams). Pick-and-Place Distance […]
Industrial manipulators and robotic arms can be classified according to their mechanical structure, kinematic configuration, and application. The main types include: I. Classified by Mechanical Structure Articulated Robots Description: Features rotary joints (like a human arm), typically with 4-6 or more axes of motion. Characteristics: High flexibility, large workspace, ability to reach around obstacles. Applications: Welding, painting, material handling, assembly. SCARA Robots Description: Has two parallel rotary joints providing compliance in a plane, plus a linear Z-axis. Characteristics: High speed, rigid in vertical direction, compact footprint. Applications: Pick-and-place, assembly, screw driving, packaging. Delta / Parallel Robots (Spider Robots) Description: Uses three or four arms connected to a common base and […]
