The Low Cost Robotics eBook by Dr.-Ing. Sebastian Feldmann.
Faculty of Engineering, University of Duisburg-Essen
This eBook answers the following questions:
Modularity is a key advantage of low cost robotics. Versatile configurations are possible, which is crucial when it comes to cutting costs. Your robot can be perfectly compatible with its assigned task and environment, while being affordable at the same time.
Furthermore, if you modify your manufacturing process, most robot systems can be easily adjusted according to your needs. If the modification still does not meet your requirements, the system can be enhanced simply and inexpensively with additional modules.
