Hexapod Robot Applications in Automation and Automotive Assembly
industry are increasing, the need for advanced robotics arises. Traditional robots are fast, can handle heavy loads, but lack positioning accuracy. Hexapod robots have a long history in precision alignment [...] with classical industrial robots. They increase the positioning repeatability and accuracy of the robotic system. For short travel ranges, they can replace the articulated-arm robot completely.
