1. Structural differences
Manipulator arms: Manipulator arms are composed of bases, arm segments, joints, actuators and sensors. They can move flexibly like human arms and can achieve a certain degree of artificial intelligence.
Cranes: Cranes are composed of bases, large arms, small arms, arm heads, lifting mechanisms, large carts, and small carts. They are giant equipment mainly used for high-altitude lifting of heavy objects.
2. Functional differences
Manipulator arms: Manipulator arms are mainly used in local intelligent production in some manufacturing industries. They can replace manual labor such as assembly and handling, and reduce the material loss rate and error rate of industrial production.
Cranes: Cranes are large-scale engineering machinery, mainly used in heavy object handling fields such as ships, docks, and ports. They can withstand a large load capacity, such as railway bridges, large shipyards, and large factories.
3. Differences in application scope
Manipulator arms: Manipulator arms are widely used in many fields such as automobile manufacturing, electronic assembly, food processing, and medical treatment. They can improve production efficiency, and can effectively reduce the work intensity of workers and reduce the occurrence of production accidents.
Crane: Crane is suitable for heavy industrial fields such as high-altitude rental, steel, cement, etc. It also plays a very important role in the construction of infrastructure such as shipping, railways, bridges, etc.
