4dF
The 4dF (Four Degrees of Freedom) is a term commonly used in the context of robotics and automation to describe a type of robotic arm or end-effector system capable of moving in four independent directions. This configuration allows for greater flexibility and precision in tasks such as assembly, manufacturing, and material handling compared to simpler systems with fewer degrees of freedom.
A 4dF system typically includes movement along three linear axes (X, Y, and Z) and one rotational
The term "4dF" can also extend to other applications beyond robotics, such as certain types of camera
While 4dF systems offer significant advantages in terms of versatility and control, they can be more complex
