Synopsis :

Addressing the use of robots for flexible automation from a manufacturing systems viewpoint, that is how robots interface with all the manufacturing hardware and software, this text discusses industrial applications and weaves a major case study throughout, allowing students to follow and join an automation design team as they work through each stage of the design process. An accompanying disk and video provide project data. This third edition expands the number of well-documented manufacturing cases and applications, and adds a chapter on-work-cell design based on computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) principles.
