6 Axis Robot Arm

When it comes to manufacturing, speed, efficiency, quality maximization, and cost reduction are hallmarks of the six-axis robot.  Learn key foundational knowledge of the anatomy that goes into this rapidly developing articulated robot.  Discuss the fundamental concepts and terminology that small-to-major manufacturers are using to strengthen industries across the U.S. You will gain valuable skills in the specification of robotic properties such as payload and reach requirements, while learning how to startup, shutdown, and jog six-axis systems. 
 
Benefits for the learner: 

• Acquire general and vocational knowledge of the process of industrial automation 
• Gain knowledge of engineering experience and skills and apply it to real world case studies
