Abstract :
Recent industrial robot is enhancing the level of intelligence rapidly thanks to the progress mainly in electronics, sensor technology, and IT. It is acquiring task know-how for manufacturing as skills. This means that the robot is acquiring the ability to answer the request for reinforcing manufacturing sector by producing goods of high quality steadily at any places in the world. In this paper, the latest robot functions are described and specially illustrated by an innovative lean robot manufacturing cell.
