Basically, an industrial robot is an electromechanical machine that can solve complex series of tasks without (or at least) human intervention.
Slip rings in robots-For the integration and enhancement of robots, slip rings are usually used. With the help of slip ring technology, industrial robots can efficiently, accurately, and flexibly automate and solve complex tasks.
Slip rings play a vital role in the robotics industry. Sometimes in robot applications, slip rings are also called “robot slip rings” or “robot rotating joints.”
When used in an industrial automation environment, slip rings have a variety of characteristics and functions.
1. Cartesian (called linear or gantry) robot 2. Cylindrical robot 3. Polar robot (called spherical robot) 4. Scala robot 5. Joint robot, parallel robot
How to use slip ring in robots Let us take a look at how slip ring technology is used in these robot applications.
• In the oil and gas industry automation, slip ring technology has many applications. It is used for rig control, extraction of oil and gas from the earth, wireless pipeline cleaning, and many other applications. Slip ring automation provides safety and prevents potentially dangerous human intervention.
• In Cartesian robots, slip ring technology is used to lift and move heavy objects or products in all directions. Automating this heavy labor can prevent the need for additional employees and save time.
• Picking and placing objects requires precise lateral movement. For this reason, Scara robot is the best automated robot, with slip ring technology.
• Cylindrical robots are used for assembly operations, spot welding, metal casting in foundries, and other cyclically coordinated mechanical handling tools. For this circulatory coordination, slip ring technology is used.
• For product manufacturing, packaging, labeling, testing, product inspection and other requirements, industrial robots are very necessary and useful in modern industrial automation systems.
• With the help of slip ring technology, polar or spherical robots are used for machine tool processing and machine management (such as gas welding, arc welding, die casting, injection molding, painting and extrusion components).
• Slip ring technology is used in medical and pharmaceutical robots. These robots (medical robots) are used for surgical operations and other medical treatments (such as CT scans and X-rays) where consistency and accuracy are most needed.
• In industrial robots, slip ring technology is widely used to design printed circuit boards (PCBs) in a modular and compact design. With the help of slip ring technology, we can trigger and execute repetitive tasks.
• Multi-joint robots are very suitable for assembly operations such as painting, gas welding, arc welding, trimming machines, and die-casting.
• In the food and pharmaceutical industries, slip ring technology is used by robots to complete repetitive tasks. With just a few commands to the robot, we can perform multiple tasks that require more manpower.
The automatic programming done by the slip ring reduces the manual operation of heavy machinery. It also facilitates the boarding of the space shuttle. In general, it helps to reduce the workload of the crew.
First of all, these are the basic applications of industrial robots. These robots were developed and accompanied by slip ring technology. This allows the robot to successfully perform multiple heavy tasks with the help of slip rings and electric motors.
Conclusion Through automation, slip ring technology can save a lot of money, perform operations with high precision, and save a lot of time for tedious tasks.
There is no doubt that slip ring technology is in great demand and has broad prospects. If you have any questions about the apps we are discussing here, please let me know in the comments.
