Continuous Path Interpolation with a low-cost robot

Low-Cost Delta Robot for Creative and Precise Automation

In a demonstration by Dipl.-Ing. Artur Wiebe, the low-cost delta robot from igus showcases its precision and versatility by drawing a smiling face on a screen. A pencil is placed in the robot’s gripper, and the user manually sketches an object, form, or word within the blue circle on the screen. Upon pressing play, the robot precisely traces the drawn design while a red dot visualizes the path. With a positioning accuracy of 0.5 mm and a working space of 360 mm, the delta robot performs the task quickly and efficiently.
