Industrial Robotic Motors Market Introduction

A robot is a reprogrammable multi-functional machine designed to aid or achieve various mechanical and computing-related tasks. Robots have also been designed to mimic human form, although most are machines programmed to perform a task with minimal regard to aesthetics. In recent years, the use of robots across several industries has steadily gained traction. Industrial robots are automated and can move on three or more axes. Articulated robots, Cartesian coordinate robots, SCARA robots, spherical coordinate robots, delta robots, etc., are examples of industrial robots.

Electric motors are machines in which electrical energy is converted to mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is put into use to operate robots. The input for an electric motor is electrical energy which may be facilitated either through batteries that are direct current sources or rectifiers. Motors are classified into various types, but industrial robots’ most widely-used motors are servo motors, stepper motors, and DC motors. The motor selection is based on the type of robot it is being used in. Rapid technological automation in various industries is increasing the demand for industrial robotic motors worldwide. The advantages of industrial robotic motors are their efficiency, productivity, and long operating life of these devices. Disadvantages include high initial setup costs and a lack of skilled operators.
