00:05industrial robots are used for manufacturing manufacturing is the process of making products
00:12using machines a robot is a machine that can operate itself without human help industrial
00:19robots direct themselves and can be used to weld paint package and inspect products all of these
00:25movements can be done perfectly with speed and endurance endurance means doing something for a
00:31long time without getting tired in 2015 researchers said almost 2 million industrial robots were in
00:39operation around the world the most commonly used robots are ones with arms computer programs tell
00:47the robots what to do and the robots do the actions some robots are programmed to carry out certain
00:54actions over and over again like tightening a bolt a robot can tighten a bolt on a product perfectly
01:01with the same speed and motion each and every time
01:06griffith p taylor created the earliest known industrial robot in 1937. it was a crane-like
01:13machine with an electric motor the motor powered five movements mr taylor's robotic crane could stack
01:21wooden blocks in a special pattern in 1954 george deval created the first robotic arm it was used to
01:30transfer objects from one point to another around 1969 an inventor named victor scheinman created an arm
01:37that could move six different ways this arm was used to collect things and to weld
01:44the programming of a robot is done by linking the robot controller to a computer a computer programmer
01:52writes a program the program tells the robot what to do if the factory owners want to put a screw
01:59into a square plate then the programmer writes that into the directions once the instructions are written
02:06the robot is ready to work the robot can work over and over without getting tired
02:14welding is the process in which one piece of metal is attached to another piece of metal
02:20it is done by using high heat that melts the parts together robotic welding did not begin until
02:27the 1980s when the automobile industry was using it for spot welding with spot welding the welds are made
02:34at certain spots the robot is helpful because it makes a perfect weld over and over robot welders can
02:42also be used in situations that may be dangerous to humans an assembly line moves things along a path
02:51in a factory many robots are set in a line and each one does a single job as the item
02:57moves down the line
02:58assembly robots move faster and with greater precision than humans one week a robot may
03:06put doors on cars and another week it may put wheels on cars assembly robots can also be fitted with
03:13vision
03:13systems a vision system is like giving eyes to a robot it allows the robot to sense where objects are
03:21to pick them up along the assembly line to dispense something means to give it out in small amounts
03:30dispensing robots are used for painting gluing and spraying these robots control where things like glue
03:36and paint are placed they can also put liquids over rough and uneven surfaces over and over again
03:45a dispensing robot is made with a computer a robot and a dispensing valve a valve is a device that
03:52controls the flow of liquid or how many items get through a dispensing robot can be used to fill
03:59bottles the robot holds the bottle in place while the valve fills it once the bottle is full the robot
04:06moves it and places another bottle robots are used in large warehouses to help workers manipulator robots
04:15can pick products pack them and load them these robots are most often used in large warehouses that
04:21stock thousands of products a computer sends a message to a robot that tells it to find a product
04:29once it finds the product it places it onto a cart and takes it to a packaging area
04:34after the product is packaged a shipping label is created and the product is sent out for delivery
04:43another robot helper in a warehouse is the storage and retrieval robot to retrieve something means to
04:50bring it back the retrieval robot small size makes it easy for the robot to work next to people
04:57it can move around items in its path and avoid crashing into them
05:01the robot works by picking products up for orders it keeps people from having to walk long distances
05:08through the warehouse
05:11automatic guided vehicles agvs help move products that are heavy
05:17some of these portable robots follow lines marked along the floor others may follow lasers or radio waves
05:23or use cameras to move around a warehouse the agv was created in the 1950s by a company in illinois
05:32the first agv was a tow truck that followed a wire in the floor with new technology companies now have
05:39their agvs follow magnetic tapes and even lasers
05:45robot vehicles are programmed to talk with other robots to make sure they don't crash into each other
05:51as one robot comes to an intersection the other robots stop to allow it to pass
05:57factories today are designed with robots in mind storage units are placed far enough apart for robots
06:04to move quickly between them
06:08not every product in a warehouse is safe explosive chemicals are stored in warehouses
06:15robots robots are used in these warehouses to protect workers instead of a person handling a large
06:21container of bleach or ammonia a robot is sent to get the container in the case of an open container
06:28or spill the robot stops and alerts the workers in the warehouse
06:34tuggers are robots that tow many trailers around a warehouse they can pull pallets of heavy products
06:40that weigh between 2000 to 160 000 pounds pallets are wooden or plastic stands that products are placed
06:48on for shipping many factories use agvs to move pallets from one area to another for example an agv can
06:57move a pallet from the plastic wrapping station to storage then it can move it from storage to the
07:03shipping docks all this can be done without a human driver in recent years agvs have been used to load
07:13pallets onto trailers agvs can pick up pallets from racks and place them directly onto trailers they can
07:20even stack them in a specific order the agv is programmed with the size of the trailer to prevent
07:27accidents the loading of trailers by robots allows humans to do other things in a warehouse
07:36boats from other countries come to america with goods to sell the goods are stored in sea containers
07:43a sea container is a large shipping container that can be used for different types of transport
07:49they can be used for moving goods on boats trains or trucks once the boats are docked large cranes remove
07:55the sea containers from the boats the sea containers are then placed on robot agvs that take them to storage
08:02areas
08:04many jewelry companies use robots to grind cut sand and polish
08:09using the robots for this prevents workers from breathing harmful dust and fumes
08:14some jewelry factories use robots to remove unwanted spots on jewelry
08:21as robots gain the ability to see they are being used more often for inspections
08:27inspection means to check something for damage or problems for example parts for machines need to be
08:33made perfectly in order for the machines to work a robot's vision system can help find and inspect
08:39machine parts it can see if the parts are damaged before they are put into machines
08:47industrial robots are used in manufacturing they may assemble pick and sort or paint objects in factories or
08:55warehouses industrial robots can help keep people safe they can work for long periods of time and never get
09:03tired industrial robots are helpful to companies that make and sell things they are intelligent machines
09:15avoid they're not able to be able to какие-tons of the machines in Ricky
09:16internalizers
09:16well
09:16you
09:16some people
09:16it's like
