Robotics is an important technology of Industry 4.0, which provides extensive capabilities in the field of manufacturing. Present days robotic arms are created a great impact to the automation industry and there are lot of benefits, such as this is helpful to perform a complex hazardous job, automation, sustain high temperature, working entire time and for a long duration in assembly lines. Many robots operating in smart factories use AI to perform the tasks. There are five types of robotic arms using in the industry. Cartesian type robotic arm This type of arms working on the cartesian coordination system. This system identifies three axes. Each of these axes relates to movement of the arm axis from a point of origin. Below figure illustrates the three axes of the cartesian coordinate system. Notice that at the convergence of the three axes is the center point of origin. Cylindrical type robotic arm This type of arm has three degrees of freedom or three axes. This robotic syst
