Special Issue Information
Dear Collegues,
High performance robots’ development and the improvement of automation are vital factors for advanced manufacturing industries. Improving the performance of the robots’ automatic manufacturing system will be a prevalent topic for researchers and engineers. This Special Issue aims to bring researchers together to present recent advances and technologies in the field of robots, and automation and robotics and mechatronics for manufacturing. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- New modelling and control methods for robots
- Intelligent manufacturing system development
- Kinematics and dynamics of mechanisms
- Robots’ design and development
- Error measurement and compensation for robots
- Automatic manufacturing system
- Robotics
- Application of robotics in manufacturing
