What is the manipulator cylinder like? Robot cylinder picture

The main types of manipulator cylinders are: upper and lower cylinders, swinging cylinders, buffer cylinders, stretching cylinders, corner cylinders and anti-falling cylinders.

At first, the structure of the manipulator cylinder was simple and had strong specificity. With the development of industrial technology, a "program-controlled universal manipulator" has been made, which can independently realize repetitive operation according to program control and has a wide range of applications.

The following describes the execution structure of the lower manipulator cylinder.

The execution structure of manipulator cylinder has the following parts:

1. hand

The part of the hand in direct contact with the workpiece is generally rotating or translating (mostly rotating because of its simple structure). Most of the hands are two fingers (there are also many fingers); According to the need, it can be divided into two types: external grasping and internal grasping; Negative pressure or vacuum air suction cups (mainly used for parts with cold absorption and smooth surface or thin plate parts) and electromagnetic suction cups can also be used.

Step 2: Arms

The arm part is an important holding part of the manipulator. Its function is to support wrist and hand (including workpiece or fixture) and drive them to do spatial movement.

3. Walking mechanism

Some industrial manipulators have walking mechanisms, but ours is still in the simulation stage.

4. Wrist

Wrist is the part connecting hand and arm, which can be used to adjust the orientation of the object being caught, thus expanding the action range of the manipulator and making the manipulator more dexterous and adaptable. Wrist has independent freedom. There is a rotating movement, swinging up and down, swinging left and right.
