[0002] A gantry robot is a fully automated industrial device based on a Cartesian X, Y, Z coordinate system. It performs functions such as workstation adjustment or workpiece trajectory movement. Due to its lightweight structure and good force distribution, the gantry robot has the advantages of high positioning accuracy, high load capacity, and simple structure. As a result, gantry robots are widely used in engineering machinery and various automated production sites, improving processing safety.

As working time increases, the servo motor drive components will wear out, which may cause positional deviations or error accumulation during the positioning of the gantry robot. Furthermore, there is a lack of real-time dynamic monitoring mechanism during the operation of the robot, which makes it impossible to accurately control its working position after the robot moves. In view of this, we propose a gantry robot with positioning function. Utility Model Content
