00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:09,380
Hi guys.

2
00:00:09,380 --> 00:00:10,040
Welcome back.

3
00:00:10,040 --> 00:00:14,060
So in this video, we're going to
look at the six axis robot arm.

4
00:00:14,940 --> 00:00:17,340
We will also be looking
at its configuration.

5
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,600
Obviously, it's a stationary type.

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,100
And so we'll look at the teach pendant and
everything that obviously comes with it.

7
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:31,640
Now, the six robot arm, as we can see

8
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,700
behind me, it's just like

9
00:00:35,940 --> 00:00:40,640
the SCARA, the delta, the all in one robot

10
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:47,000
and therefore can't have that ability
of multiple operations i.e.

11
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,500
the X, Y, Z and the rotary kind of motion
as well.

12
00:00:52,100 --> 00:00:55,960
The big advantage that the 6-axis has over

13
00:00:55,980 --> 00:00:59,680
the ones that we've already mentioned
is that they

14
00:01:00,900 --> 00:01:05,540
mainly come as a big or large robot forms

15
00:01:05,540 --> 00:01:09,620
and therefore they can operate in extreme
high conditions.

16
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:14,900
The 6-axis is a lot more preferred
because they can be quite large and

17
00:01:14,940 --> 00:01:18,900
and as a result of that,
they can do all these activities

18
00:01:19,580 --> 00:01:21,840
as well as task on either

19
00:01:22,100 --> 00:01:24,780
a manufacturing or assembly line.

20
00:01:25,140 --> 00:01:29,340
These robots can move
like basically a human arm

21
00:01:30,180 --> 00:01:34,860
and as a result
can basically pick up for example, a cup

22
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,960
precisely, not spill
any kind of beverage in it at all

23
00:01:38,960 --> 00:01:41,660
and place it
exactly where you want it on a table.

24
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,480
A typical example of
this is in welding conditions

25
00:01:45,780 --> 00:01:49,680
also in toxic conditions
where humans cannot,

26
00:01:49,860 --> 00:01:53,940
you know, work over there
for example, radioactive substances

27
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,040
whereby it needs to be carried
and not shaken.

28
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,300
These robots are very, very

29
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,680
important and can be used for them.

30
00:02:04,940 --> 00:02:10,700
As I rightly said, we're going to look
at the configurations of our 6-axis robot.

31
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,360
Now, there are some types of these.

32
00:02:15,380 --> 00:02:21,140
Obviously, this one is made such
that it doesn't interact with human,

33
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:26,300
because of its basically brutal force
with which works with.

34
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:29,060
There are other forms of the same

35
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,100
robot arm like this

36
00:02:32,100 --> 00:02:35,640
which obviously then interact
with human applications.

37
00:02:35,640 --> 00:02:40,380
So you can literally stand beside it and
it will be easy for you to work with it.

38
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:43,800
As we can see,
this one is not that interactive

39
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,580
because of the sheer force,
the brutal force with which it works,

40
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:53,420
and so that is why we have this cell fence
around it as a safety

41
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:58,460
and so we're going to look at one by one
the configuration of this.

42
00:02:58,460 --> 00:03:00,600
As we can see,
we have the robot arm there.

43
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,020
We have what we call a teach pendant

44
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:04,800
and we

45
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,080
have a mate, which is what the control.

46
00:03:08,580 --> 00:03:12,460
In here we have everything that obviously
the power you needs

47
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:18,480
the major, major kind of operation
our systems that everything works off it.

48
00:03:18,620 --> 00:03:21,520
Without this,
we won't be able to control our robot.

49
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:27,440
In obviously industrial environment
we will have a bigger unit

50
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,220
which will contain the what

51
00:03:29,220 --> 00:03:32,980
we call the human interface
where we can actually interact with that.

52
00:03:33,140 --> 00:03:36,560
But this is at the moment actually

53
00:03:37,220 --> 00:03:40,940
OK for us to be able to work,
operate our robot arm.

54
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,120
You guys can see now that Ive opened

55
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,000
the cell,
we can see that we've got a camera here.

56
00:03:47,340 --> 00:03:50,240
Now, the purpose of this camera here
is that

57
00:03:50,580 --> 00:03:54,900
we will be able to remotely operate
this robot arm.

58
00:03:55,200 --> 00:04:02,040
And this is that kind of application that
now is used in surgery, medical surgery.

59
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,260
You know,
doctors can operate from far distance

60
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,580
and then a client or a patient
will be somewhere in Grimsby

61
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:15,380
and they will be able to remotely operate
using this method of system

62
00:04:15,540 --> 00:04:18,920
whereby we got the camera
linked to the robot and everything.

63
00:04:19,500 --> 00:04:21,860
Every robot that has 6-axis

64
00:04:22,060 --> 00:04:24,820
will have such kind of a configuration.

65
00:04:25,260 --> 00:04:29,060
OK, usually in there
you will see that they are numbered

66
00:04:29,660 --> 00:04:32,060
and you will have the base

67
00:04:32,060 --> 00:04:35,680
whereby obviously all the power,
everything goes through

68
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,380
and behind it you will have everything
to your profit boss

69
00:04:40,460 --> 00:04:42,980
your coaxial cable

70
00:04:43,260 --> 00:04:47,160
that obviously connects to one big thing,
which obviously then

71
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,100
connect to the back of your robot arm.

72
00:04:51,740 --> 00:04:56,060
And you've also got other extra pipes
there as you can see through there

73
00:04:56,660 --> 00:05:00,300
basically for safe automatic operations.

74
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,760
You got one here
which obviously then controls

75
00:05:03,980 --> 00:05:07,340
the opening and closing of our grip.

76
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,380
As you can see the joints of these

77
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,020
kind of robot arms are called the axis.

78
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:21,200
OK, so if you actually look closely
you will see that you got your axis

79
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,200
one, or joint one, you got two there,

80
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,340
you got three there, and then you go four

81
00:05:27,740 --> 00:05:31,740
and then you go five
and then you got six there.

82
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:37,580
So having said that, and this brings us
to the basic configuration,

83
00:05:38,300 --> 00:05:41,880
obviously, we can look into it further,
but this is kind of a

84
00:05:42,840 --> 00:05:44,420
general introduction to the basic

85
00:05:44,420 --> 00:05:48,480
configuration of a typical six axis
robot arm

86
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,220
in the next video,
we're going to look at the safety issues

87
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,740
also will be kind of introduction
into the safety, there's a host

88
00:05:56,900 --> 00:06:00,560
of safety issues that we have to look at
when we're talking about robots,

89
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,760
but we'll look at briefly
some of the very important ones

90
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:10,520
not to miss, especially when you are
operating these monsters. OK.
