A linear robot is a type of industrial robot that operates on a linear motion system, allowing it to move in a straight line along a defined path. Linear robots are commonly used for pick-and-place operations, material handling, and assembly tasks.

Linear robots offer several advantages, including high speed and precision, consistent performance, and the ability to operate in tight spaces. They can also handle heavy loads and perform tasks that are dangerous or difficult for humans.

Linear robots can be programmed using a variety of methods, including teach pendant programming, offline programming, and simulation software. The specific programming method depends on the robot's manufacturer and the application

Yes, linear robots can be customized for specific applications by modifying the robot's hardware or software. This may involve adding or removing sensors, changing end-of-arm tooling, or modifying the robot's programming.
