Practical Implications of Programmable Manipulators
Abstract
During the last few years Hawker Siddeley Dynamics Engineering have supplied many Versatran programmable manipulators with the image of the Versatran being primarily that of an industrial robot. It is intended in this paper to demonstrate how practical experience gained by Hawker Siddeley Dynamic Engineering indicates that there are very good reasons for supplying alternatives to a standard robot, for the 500P system of which most people will be familiar, Fig. 1a has in some cases too much capability and in other cases is inadequate. The market therefore has been rather limited for such a robot.
