  1. 2. A sensor that measures the rotation of a motor shaft and provides precise feedback to the motor's control system, preventing drift or skipped movement.
  2. 4. (Programmable Logic Controller) A computer used to control the automation of industrial processes, including robot cell operations.
  3. 5. (Internet of Things) The network of physical devices that are embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies for connecting and exchanging data with other devices and systems over the internet.
  4. 8. Stop (E-Stop) A safety mechanism that immediately halts all robot motion and power, designed for emergency situations.
  5. 9. Interlocks Devices, such as safety doors and light curtains, that prevent robot operation when safety conditions are not met.
  6. 13. Twin A virtual representation of a physical system (like a robot cell) used for simulation and analysis.
  7. 14. Troubleshooting The method of preventing failures by implementing routine maintenance, monitoring, and using technology to predict future problems.
Down
  1. 1. FANUC’s simulation software used for designing, testing, and simulating robot cell operations offline.
  2. 3. Troubleshooting The method of fixing a failure or malfunction after the problem occurs.
  3. 4. Maintenance A maintenance strategy that uses data analysis and machine learning to anticipate equipment failures before they happen.
  4. 6. Pendant A handheld device used to program and control a robot, displaying status, error messages, and providing manual movement controls.
  5. 7. Motor A motor that is designed to be controlled with high precision for specific movements and is often the component responsible for the motion of a robotic arm.
  6. 10. A mechanical device that converts energy (like compressed air) into motion (like movement in a gripper).
  7. 11. (Tool Center Point) A specific point on the robot’s end effector used as a reference for its programmed movements.
  8. 12. Method (Divide and Conquer) A troubleshooting approach where potential causes are systematically halved until the root cause is identified.
