1. Working space and carrying ability:
1. The standard length of a single root of Cartesian coordinate type is 6m, and it can reach 100m after assembly; Combined into a gantry robot, its working space can be a very three-dimensional space. A single root can carry 10-200 kg, and the special structure can reach 2400 kg.
2. The maximum working radius of the joint type is 3m, and it can work at any angle within the effective radius. There are several specifications 5-20Kg to choose from, but the maximum is 1300Kg, which is extremely valuable.
Second, the accuracy of the operation
1) Cartesian coordinate type: because of the simple structure, the repeated positioning accuracy is 0.05mm, and the lead screw type can reach 0.01mm, or even higher.
2) Joint type: repeat positioning accuracy 0.06mm, light load small radius 0.02mm, heavy load accuracy 0.2mm.
3. Combination
1. Cartesian coordinate type has a variety of combinations, gantry type, cantilever type, wall-mounted type, etc., which can be customized for customers according to different loads, strokes, functions and special space requirements. Together, the rotation axis and the flip axis can be expanded on the basis of the X, Y, and Z axes to form a five-degree-of-freedom and six-degree-of-freedom robot.
2. The joint type can be subdivided into 6 degrees of freedom robots, Scara robots, and four-link robots, with relatively few types, and the selectivity and flexibility are much smaller than those of Cartesian coordinate types.
4. Mechanical installation and protection
1. Cartesian coordinate type is a modular product, the user can disassemble, replace or protect by himself, all mechanical parts are general, and the repair and protection cost is low.
2. The joint type has a high degree of integration and good integrity, but professionals are required for mechanical installation. The installation space is smaller than that of the Cartesian coordinate type, but the working space is its entire operating radius, and the operation area needs to be protected, so the total area of the equipment is not less than the Cartesian coordinate type.
5. Software programming control and protection
1. The Cartesian coordinate type from the electrical system to the host computer is open and flexible. The programming is simple, the user can expand at will, and the control is simple and easy to operate. Simplified program problems and hardware failures can be handled by the customer themselves, such as replacing the drive motor, PLC, etc., with low protection costs.
2. Articulated robot: the software system is integrated, and the library function is directly called, which is its software advantage. However, the programming and control must be completed by the supplier after professional training (the manufacturer's software programming fee is 300 yuan/hour), and special software needs are charged.
Protection and repair are completely subject to human control, because the brands are not compatible with each other, and hardware failures must be supplied directly by the supplier or manufacturer, and the cost is not a common product in the market.
