A robot consisting of a kinematic chain of rigid links connected by actuated joints, terminating in an end-effector, designed to position and orient objects or tools in a workspace. Manipulator robots include serial open-chain designs (articulated, SCARA, cylindrical, Cartesian) and parallel closed-chain designs, and are the dominant platform for industrial assembly, welding, pick-and-place, and collaborative tasks.
