Automation has reshaped modern manufacturing, and the industrial robot sits at the center of that change. Yet the knowledge needed to understand one of these systems is usually scattered: the geometry of motion in one course, the forces behind it in another, motor theory in a third, and the logic that coordinates a production line in a fourth. Learned in isolation, these pieces rarely combine into a working picture of a complete automated cell.
This book concentrates on the principles that remain valid as specific controllers and robot models come and go. Every equation is presented with its variables and units defined, every derivation proceeds from stated assumptions, and every worked example carries its units through to a checked numerical answer, so you gain genuine command of the relationships that govern physical behavior rather than formulas to memorize.
By working through it, you will be able to:
Describe a manipulator's pose using coordinate frames, rotation matrices, and homogeneous transformations.
Solve forward, inverse, and differential kinematics, and recognize singularities and the role of the Jacobian.
Analyze the forces and torques behind motion, and size actuators and drive systems from their characteristics.
Interpret encoder, force, range, and vision data, and understand how sensor error reaches the tool.
Plan trajectories, program manipulators, and build the ladder logic and networks that coordinate a line.
Apply a disciplined risk-assessment and safeguarding framework and integrate machines into a smart factory.
The treatment moves deliberately from the geometry of a single joint to the coordination of a full production system, covering robot anatomy and configurations, spatial transformations, kinematics and dynamics, actuators and sensing, machine vision, motion control, robot programming, programmable logic controllers, industrial communication, safety, and system integration. Each chapter opens with clear objectives and closes with practice problems whose answers have been verified, and the appendices add refreshers on SI units, linear algebra, and trigonometry.
It is written for advanced undergraduate and graduate engineering students, instructors seeking a rigorous principles-based text, and early-career or practicing engineers and technicians in automation, controls, manufacturing, and mechatronics. A working knowledge of calculus, linear algebra, basic physics, and elementary circuits is assumed.
Open the book and begin building the connected understanding needed to describe, analyze, and construct automated systems with real clarity and confidence.
