PLC Makes Microcontroller Programming More Professional! Hello everyone, today I want to talk about the relationship between PLC and microcontrollers. Many friends might think these are two completely different fields, but that’s not the case. The programming mindset of PLC can help us write more stable and industrial-grade microcontroller programs. From Relay to PLC Programming … Read more
Compared to large drones, small drones are much easier to operate. A skilled operator can make them fly in any direction to better meet shooting needs. So, what are the flight principles of drones? Drone Takeoff Each drone is equipped with rotors, and the basic theory of rotors is something that friends who have played … Read more
Wireless Remote Control and Adjustment Network Using S7-300 PLC When the distance between multiple control points is very far, and they are remote and scattered, such as water source wells, valves, and water level monitoring in urban water supply and hydraulic departments, these devices are spread over dozens or even hundreds of square kilometers. To … Read more
This article compares the control system solutions for two types of industrial robots: robotic arms and mobile robots, introducing their characteristics. The above classifications are based on the application objects. In addition, there are more general-purpose motion controllers on the market, which control non-standard equipment. 1 Controller Underlying Solutions 1.1 Robotic Arms The controllers for … Read more
According to the definition in ISO 8373, an industrial robot is a multi-joint mechanical arm or multi-degree-of-freedom robot designed for industrial applications. An industrial robot is a machine device that automatically performs tasks, relying on its own power and control capabilities to achieve various functions. It can accept commands from humans or operate according to … Read more

Classification of Industrial Robots 1 Based on the form of operational coordinates, they can be categorized as follows: (1) Cartesian Industrial Robots Their motion consists of three mutually perpendicular linear movements (i.e., PPP), forming a rectangular working space. The movement distances in each axis can be directly read out, making programming calculations for positions and … Read more
1. Main Body The main mechanical body consists of the base and the actuating mechanism, including the upper arm, lower arm, wrist, and hand, forming a multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical system. Some robots also have walking mechanisms. Industrial robots typically have six degrees of freedom or even more, with the wrist usually having 1 to 3 degrees … Read more
