Robottikäsiä

Robottikäsiä, often translated as robotic arms, are programmable mechanical manipulators used in industrial and other settings. They are designed to perform repetitive or hazardous tasks with precision and speed. These arms typically consist of a series of joints, similar to a human arm, which allow for a range of motion in multiple dimensions. The number of joints, known as degrees of freedom, determines the arm's flexibility and ability to reach and orient objects.

Industrial robotic arms are widely employed in manufacturing for tasks such as assembly, welding, painting, and material handling. They can be programmed to follow specific paths and execute complex sequences of movements. Safety is a key consideration in their design and deployment, with many systems incorporating sensors and safety protocols to prevent collisions and protect human workers.

Beyond industrial applications, robotic arms are found in fields like healthcare for surgical assistance, in research laboratories for precise experimentation, and even in space exploration for tasks on spacecraft and space stations. The technology continues to evolve, with advancements in artificial intelligence and sensing capabilities leading to more sophisticated and autonomous robotic arms capable of adapting to changing environments and tasks.
