Development trend of power assisted manipulator

Power manipulator, also known as manipulator, balance crane, balance booster, manual transfer machine (the above statement is not professional, but has been popular in China), is a novel power assisted equipment for material handling and installation. It skillfully applies the balance principle of force, so that the operator can push and pull the weight correspondingly, and then the balance, movement and positioning can be achieved in the space. When the weight is lifted or lowered, it forms a floating state, and zero operating force is guaranteed by the air circuit (in fact, because of the control of processing technology and design cost, the operating force is less than 3kg). The operating force is affected by the weight of the workpiece. Without skilled inching operation, the operator can push and pull the heavy object by hand, and can put the weight in any position in the space correctly.

Due to the characteristics of gravity free, accurate and intuitive, convenient operation, high effect and safety, the "balance crane" is widely used in modern industrial occasions such as material transfer, high frequency handling, accurate positioning and component assembly.

From receiving raw materials and materials to processing, production, storage and distribution of each link in the process of material flow, the role of the balance crane manual transfer system is remarkable.

The correct use of the corresponding methods and means of material transfer can greatly improve the transportation of heavy objects, the health and safety of operators on the site, and the rationality of operation, the saving of labor force, the improvement of production efficiency and the guarantee of product quality.

Development trend of power manipulator: the world industrial manipulator has the development trend of high precision, high speed, multi axis and lightweight. The positioning accuracy can meet the requirements of micron and submicron. The manipulator, flexible manufacturing system and flexible manufacturing cell are combined to fundamentally change the manual operation state of mechanical manufacturing system. With the miniaturization and miniaturization of the manipulator, its application field will break through the traditional mechanical field and develop towards the electronic information, biotechnology, life science, aerospace and other industries
