By Coordinate System:Cartesian

• When Robot moves in the

direction of x,y,z coordinate
then it is called Cartesian
robot. Its workspace is shape
of rectangular box.
• It occupy large space
• It has rigid body and
• Provides accurate end-effector
position.
 By Coordinate System:Cylindrical
• When Robot arm one revolute and two prismatic joints
• This type of robot is called cylindrical robot
• Its end-effector can move in limited volume.
• The robot can perform this motion by extending a cylinder that’s
built into the arm. In most cylindrical robots, the up-and-down
motion is provided by a pneumatic cylinder, and the rotation is
generally provided by a motor and gears.
 By Coordinate System: Spherical
or Polar
• When Robot arm has two revolute joint and one prismatic joint.
• This robot is capable of changing its configuration
• Its end-effector can move in limited volume.
• This type of robot is called polar robot .
 By Coordinate System: Articulated or
revoluate
• When Robot arm consists of links connected by revoluate joints
only.
• It has sphere like work space
