Räckviddsrobotar

Räckviddsrobotar, often translated as "range robots" or "reach robots," is a Swedish term referring to a type of industrial robot designed for tasks requiring a long reach. These robots are characterized by their extended manipulator arms, which allow them to access areas that might be difficult or dangerous for humans or shorter-reach robots. Their primary function is to perform repetitive or complex movements over a significant working envelope.

The design of räckviddsrobotar typically involves multiple axes of articulation, enabling them to move with high degrees of freedom. This flexibility is crucial for applications such as welding, painting, material handling, and assembly in large-scale manufacturing environments. The extended reach allows them to service multiple workstations or cover a wide area without needing to be repositioned frequently.

These robots find application in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, and heavy machinery manufacturing. Their ability to operate in hazardous conditions, such as high temperatures or the presence of toxic fumes, also makes them valuable for specific industrial processes. The development of räckviddsrobotar has contributed to increased automation, improved efficiency, and enhanced safety in manufacturing operations by taking over tasks that demand extensive reach and precision.
