Difference between three-axis/four-axis/five-axis manipulator:
1. Three-axis manipulator
It refers to a manipulator with three reassuring motion functions, which is generally called a robot; The three-axis movement direction is generally XYZ's linear motion mode truss manipulator, the usual three-axis manipulator belongs to the customized category, the stroke, load, and movement mode are customizable, with the function of linear movement in three directions; The three-axis manipulator can complete some applications such as injection molding machine pickup, stamping and extraction, glass handling, etc., and can stack the products, and use it in a simpler way to run in the front and back processes, and its structure is simple!
2. Four-axis robot manipulator
The types of four-axis robots/four-axis manipulators are specifically divided into four types, including stamping swing arm manipulators with four axes; articulated four-axis robot; Horizontal multi-joint robot four-axis; Spider hand robot, four-axis movement direction has four degrees of freedom, in many industries will be four-axis distinction, such as stamping automation has stamping special robot joint type and swing arm type, there is a fast sorting spider hand can complete the sorting and handling of small pieces, widely used in medicine, food and other industries, as well as in the 3C electronics industry widely used four-axis horizontal multi-joint robot, etc., four-axis movement can meet the handling and stacking of palletizing in some horizontal positions of the handling stacking can be completed.
3. five-axis robotic arm is usually on the basis of the six-axis joint minus one of the unwanted motion axis, can meet many applications, of course, six-axis robot can be said to basically all manufacturing industry production can be used, can meet a lot of production processing, assembly, welding, spraying, handling, palletizing, grinding, deburring, stamping, etc.; As shown in the figure below, it has a movement mode of six degrees of freedom, which is equivalent to an arm, so it is also called a six-axis robotic arm.
