Answer for EOC1
1. a. Industrial robot An industrial robot is a programmable, multi-functional manipulator
designed to move materials, parts, tools, or special devices through variable
programmed motions for the performance of a variety of tasks.
c. Workspace The volume in space that a robot’s end-effector can reach, both in position
and orientation.
d. Accuracy Accuracy is the ability of a robot to go to the specified position without
making a mistake
e. Repeatability Repeatability is the ability of a robot to repeatedly position itself when asked
to perform a task multiple times
f. Precision Precision is the ‘fineness’ with which a sensor can report a value
g. Robotic system An integrated system of devices that automate production and manufacturing
of goods and services
h. Degree of freedom Is a term used to describe a robot’s freedom of motion in three dimensional
space—specifically, the ability to move forward and backward, up and
down, and to the left and to the right. For each degree of freedom, a joint is
required.
