According to the study “Cylindrical Industrial Robots: Global Market 2016-2021”, cylindrical industrial robot has at least one rotary joint at the
base and one prismatic joint to connect the links. Cylindrical industrial robots’
rotary joint uses a rotational motion along the joint axis, while the prismatic
joint moves in a linear motion that operates within a cylindrical-shaped work
envelope. Cylindrical industrial robots are rarely used now-a-days because most
of industrial operations were carried out with SCARA robots (Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm or Selective
Compliance Articulated Robot Arm) which are equipped with advanced technology. It's
a robot whose axes form a cylindrical coordinate system. Cylindrical industrial robots cut and shape parts,
assemble machinery and inspect manufactured parts. Typical cylindrical industrial
robots jobs are difficult, dangerous or dull while handling. Cylindrical
industrial robot is cylindrical and its dimensions are determined by the motion
limits of the different parts of the robot. The motion limit of any joint of a
cylindrical robot on the both sides is maximum as well as the minimum. It can
reach points in the three dimensional space that is interchanged with common
minimum workspace within the industrial application. Cylindrical industrial robots
can move between the required points faster than the Cartesian robot,
especially in case when the two points are at the same radius.
Robot is a programmable machine that looks exactly like a human being while
performing multiple complex acts. It is an insensitive
machine that functions automatically when programmed. Various industrial robots are manufactured
and designed accordingly to move materials, parts, tools, perform a variety of
programmed tasks within the manufacturing facilities to produce quality
products. Robots are equipped with articulated arms specifically developed for managing
various applications such as welding, material handling, painting and others
functions. Healthcare, military, public safety industries, manufacturing
industries, mining industries are the various industries that use robotics for
multiple operations. With the advent of robots, workload in manufacturing
facilities is shared between man and machines. As more and more number of robots
are manufactured with technologically advanced and autonomous features, they are
trained and programmed to do jobs faster and better than humans.
Geographically, global material handling robotics market
is spread across the Americas, Asia-Pacific, EMEA and rest of the world. Asia-Pacific
region accounts for a larger share within the cylindrical industrial robots
market due to ongoing industrialization in China and Southeast Asian countries.
Industrial automation coupled with technological innovations has bolstered
growth of the market in Europe and North America. However, Latin America and
RoW account for a small fraction within the global cylindrical industrial
robots market. Global cylindrical industrial robots market comprises of both
international and regional vendors. All the vendors compete against each other
while focusing on terms of quality, durability, reliability, and technological
innovations. Large investments are made in R&D to improve robots with advanced
technologies, superior quality of robot construction, and more operational
skills. The leading players within the global cylindrical industrial robotics
market are ABB, Kuka AG, Fanuc, Yaskawa Electrical Corp., Toshiba Machine,
Adept Technology Inc., Epson Robotics, Denso Wave, Staubli International,
Mitsubishi Electric Corp., and Kawasaki.
Various applications of a cylindrical industrial robot are palletising,
grinding process, assembly, spot welding and handling machine tools. The major
end-users of cylindrical industrial robots are automotive
industry, electrical and electronics industry, metal, machinery, plastics &
chemicals, food & beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, precision, optics
and other industrial sectors.
Cylindrical industrial robots are extraordinary and
compete with other types of industrial robots such as articulated robots,
Cartesian robots, and SCARA robots which are well established within various
industrial applications. With the advent of more sophisticated robots, the
global cylindrical robots market will witness a mild growth over the next few
years. it was estimated that unless the technological advancements creates new
applications or more efficient cylindrical robots, the market for cylindrical industrial
robots market may experience a continuous declining over the next few years.
