1. Background of Industrial Robot Development In 1920, Czech playwright Karel Čapek first used the term ROBOT in his science fiction play “Rossum’s Universal Robots,” which subsequently became synonymous with robots. In March 1938, The Meccano Magazine reported on a model of a handling robot, marking one of the earliest reports of a robot model … Read more
The core components of the robot body include servo, reducer, and controller. Taking a six-axis joint robot as an example, each robot is equipped with six servos, six reducers, and one controller. The motor and reducer are inside the robot, while the controller, which is the control cabinet, is connected to the robot body via … Read more
The term robots originates from the 1921 play “Rossum’s Universal Robots” by Czech writer Karel Capek. In this play, robots refer to mechanical beings manufactured in factories. Compared to modern robots, these “beings” should more accurately be described as cyborgs or artificial humans, as they resemble humans and possess their own thoughts. After awakening, these … Read more
This article provides a detailed description of the structure, drive, and technical specifications of industrial robots, making it worth a closer look! 1. Common Kinematic Configurations 1. Cartesian Manipulator Advantages: Easy to implement via computer control and can achieve high precision.

In 2024, embodied intelligence and large models have become focal topics. Many believe the humanoid robot industry is on the brink of a “boom,” but how long is this night really? Another important carrier of embodied intelligence—the robotic arm—shows a dual strong prospect from commercialization to the application of new technologies in embodied multimodal large … Read more
When many people hear the word “robot,” words like “cool design,” “powerful functions,” and “high-end” come to mind, thinking of robots as high-tech and flashy like the “Terminator” in science fiction movies. However, this is not the case. In this article, we will explore the basic concepts of robotics and understand how robots accomplish their … Read more
Recently, Boston Dynamics released a “Goodbye, Hydraulic Atlas” video, announcing the official retirement of its famous hydraulic-driven bipedal humanoid robot Atlas. This video attracted widespread attention from everyone who loves humanoid robotics. However, within less than 24 hours of the announcement, the all-electric Atlas robot made its debut, becoming the continuing force in the company’s … Read more
1. Flexible Robot Technology Flexible robot technology refers to the design using flexible materials and structures, allowing robots to possess characteristics such as flexibility, agility, lightness, and durability, enabling them to work in irregular, complex, and hazardous environments. These robots can achieve high levels of autonomy, have good adaptability and intelligence, and can perform a … Read more
In 2024, embodied intelligence and large models become hot topics. Many believe that the humanoid robot industry is on the brink of a “boom”, but how long will this night last? Another significant carrier of embodied intelligence—robotic arms—shows a dual strong prospect from commercialization to the application of new technologies in embodied multimodal large models. … Read more
