Abstract
An intelligent industrial robot is a remarkably useful combination of a manipulator, sensors and controls. The use of these machines in factory automation can improve productivity, increase product quality and improve competitiveness. Robots have been created to perform a wide variety of tasks spanning from educational robots in classrooms, to arc welding robots in the automobile industry, to teleoperated robot arms and mobile robots in space. This chapter focuses on the application of industrial robots within a manufacturing setting, and their contribution to further enhance their capabilities for flexibility in automation. In proper selection of a robot, one has to consider the various robot characteristics such as the way the robot links are connected and controlled at each joint. Next, a comprehensive review of the robot kinematics, dynamics and control strategies along with a treatment of the artificial neural network will describe the recent attempts to advance the development of intelligent control systems for industrial robots.
