Hannover Messe: on route to a 1,000 euro robot with igus
8/9/2015
The next generation of the modular joint robotic systems offers flexibility and reduces costs
Reduce costs and improve technology: this is the promise of plastic specialists, igus, and it has now taken a further step in this direction in the field of robotics. At Hannover Messe, the Cologne-based company will exhibit the next generation of robolink D, a direct driven articulated arm made from plastic and aluminium that can be used to build a 4-axis robot from 1,500 euros.
Last year, igus presented its new robolink D product range. In this system, a robolink articulated arm is driven directly by a motor that is attached to the axis. During this process, robolink D uses a lubrication-free igus PRT polymer slewing ring bearing, which is installed in plastic housing. This bearing is now also available as a full polymer version. The bearing is driven by a worm gear drive with the option to add an igus stepper motor Nema 17 or 23. The robolink D joints are available in three sizes and can be combined with components made from plastic or aluminium to form articulated arms with one to four axes. "The modular combination of the robolink articulated arm, the motor and the drive creates a customised and configurable robotic system", explains Martin Raak, robolink Product Manager. "The construction kit is light and highly flexible. This makes it interesting for not only robot manufacturers and machine and equipment builders but also system integrators and automation specialists from all sectors, from automotive production to medical technology. This particularly applies when dealing with humans-machine interaction."
Robots from 1,500 euros
Thanks to advances in development and production, it is now possible, depending on the batch size, equipment and load capacity, to use robolink D to develop a 4-axis robot for between 1,500 and 2,500 euros. This includes the motors and the appropriate cables. Both the individual components and the pre-assembled system with construction diagrams can be ordered. The load capacity is up to 4 kg - with a system weight of just 5 to 8 kg. The motors can be controlled using conventional control modules. "In the future, it should also be possible to use a lower cost and simpler motor control involving a web browser, as igus is currently exhibiting at Hannover Messe for the first time for all drylin E linear axes", comments Raak, offering an insight into how the system is set to develop. This new solution is compatible with many different industrial control systems thanks to CANopen and digital inputs and outputs. "Our aim is to continually develop the robolink D system and thus reduce costs even further so that it becomes possible to construct a 4-axis robot from 1,000 euros in the near future."

The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner."

"Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
