    Structural Materials in Robotics: Carbon Fiber vs. Aluminum Alloys for Mass and Inertia

    In the design of stationary industrial articulated arms, structural mass is often a secondary design variable. Bolted to a reinforced concrete foundation, a six-axis welding robot benefits from massive cast-iron or thick-walled steel links that dampen mechanical vibration and provide immense static rigidity. The electrical grid supplies continuous kilowatts to heavy servo drives, and the […]
