Difference between
robot and machine
tools
A machine is created so that it always
performs a function using, for
example, a conveyor line that always
advances with the same speed even
though more speed or less may be
required according to the needs.
While a robot would be one who saw
those needs and adapted to the
situation, noticing a little intelligence

The laws of robotics
1. A robot must not harm a
human being or, by its inaction,
let a human being suffer
damage.
2. A robot must obey the orders
given to it by a human being,
except if they are in conflict
with the first law.
3. A robot must protect its own
existence, unless it conflicts
with the first two laws.
The parallel robots have a

unemployed
• In case of not finding people to
carry out the work

the structure of a serial type that
would be the industrial ones.
Security problems
that may arise from
the use of robots
Industrial robots are extremely
powerful, especially those that have
great reach. Therefore, that
personnel are within their range may
be hurt by some established
movement of the robot. Therefore,
some robots have safety mechanisms
integrated into their circuits, which
stop their movement in case of an
emergency
