The Enduring Relevance of Polar Robots in Modern Manufacturing

In the ever-evolving landscape of industrial automation, polar robots, also known as spherical robots, continue to play a pivotal role despite the advent of more advanced robotic systems. These robots, characterized by their spherical coordinate system and unique movement capabilities, have been a mainstay in manufacturing for over half a

The Robot with the Reach

It’s pretty easy to envision a robot welding external features, but how about when it has to get into rather tight internal spaces? One way to do it is by combining two robots into one. That’s what ABB has done with its IRB800 seen in the picture above. In this project, we
