Abstract

During the last few years, the industrial robot population has increased dramatically. For industrial robots do indeed offer considerable advantages if they are used at the right time, in the right place and for the right task; these considerations spanning technical as well as economic and social factors. An investigation of the automobile industry showed that 3 – 4 workers can be replaced by one industrial robot and for 7 replaced workers only one qualified technician is required for the programming and maintenance of the industrial robots.
