Estimated read time 4 min read

Flexible force-controlled robots are advanced robotic systems that can sense and adapt to environmental changes while performing tasks. They are usually equipped with advanced sensors and control algorithms that enable precise force control and motion regulation, allowing them to work safely and efficiently in complex or sensitive environments. The following are several major application areas of flexible force-controlled robots:

In the field of industrial manufacturing, flexible force-controlled robots can be used for tasks such as precision assembly, polishing, and inspection. For example, in the automotive industry, force control systems can help robots complete complex assembly tasks, such as the installation of engine components, to ensure that the applied force does not cause damage to sensitive components. In the electronics manufacturing industry, force control technology enables robots to accurately install tiny components such as PCBs (printed circuit boards), FPCs (flexible printed circuit boards), wiring harnesses, hard disk memory, memory cards, etc. In addition, force control technology can also be applied to automated assembly lines to improve production efficiency and product quality.

In the medical field, surgical robots use force control technology to perform delicate surgical operations, improving the safety and success rate of surgery. For example, the da Vinci surgical system is a typical surgical robot that uses force control technology to achieve delicate tissue manipulation and reduce damage and bleeding during surgery. In addition, force control technology can also be used in rehabilitation robots to help patients with rehabilitation training and improve rehabilitation effects.

Flexible force control robots also have important applications in the aerospace field. The manufacture and maintenance of aerospace vehicles require highly precise and complex operations, and the requirements for robot systems are very high. Flexible force control robots can adapt to different operating requirements by sensing and controlling the size and direction of force, and achieve more precise and safe operations. For example, during the assembly process of spacecraft, flexible force control robots can perform adaptive insertion and connection operations according to the position and shape of parts, avoiding errors and damage caused by the rigidity of traditional robots. In addition, flexible force control robots can also be used in the repair and maintenance of spacecraft, adjusting the operation force and angle by sensing and controlling the size and direction of force, and improving maintenance efficiency and safety.

In the field of human-computer interaction, flexible force-control robots can be used to achieve more natural and safe interaction. For example, in the application of collaborative robots (Cobot), force control technology can ensure that the robot can sense and adjust the force applied to the human body when collaborating with humans to avoid harm to the operator. In addition, force control technology can also be used in virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) systems to improve the user's interactive experience.

In summary, flexible force-controlled robots are widely used in manufacturing, medical, aerospace, and service fields. With the continuous advancement of science and technology and the increasing demand for robot systems, the application prospects of flexible force-controlled robots will be broader. I believe that in the near future, flexible force-controlled robots will become an indispensable and important tool and assistants in various fields.

The development of flexible force-controlled robots also faces some challenges, such as the optimization of force-control algorithms, the improvement of sensor technology, and the safety of human-computer interaction. Future research needs to conduct in-depth exploration in these aspects to achieve a wider application and more efficient performance of flexible force-controlled robots. With the continuous maturity of technology and the reduction of costs, flexible force-controlled robots are expected to be used in more fields and make greater contributions to the development of human society.
