In many countries abroad, the use of industrial robots is much more widespread than at home, and early robots replaced unpopular jobs. Robots have taken over dangerous manual jobs and tedious tasks such as operating heavy machinery in manufacturing and construction or handling hazardous chemicals in laboratories. Many robots can operate independently, and in the future robots will work with humans.
The safeguards for industrial robots are to ensure the safety of the robots and the workers, and it is crucial to ensure that the fast-moving robots do not hit or injure people with too much force. When humans remotely control robots, their robotic hands can easily complete tasks. Now we can track and replicate the movement of people's fingers through artificial hands. Union representatives at a factory in a foreign country say workers' health problems have been alleviated as industrial robots take over some manual work on the production line. In the past, workers in this job often suffered from shoulder and neck problems and carpal tunnel syndrome.
As robots are more widely deployed in the industrial sector, this brings more benefits to society. As workers learn to use new technologies, they will become more qualified to raise their own income levels. Industrial robots can efficiently complete the work, speed up the entire production process and reduce the work time of the employees. To make industrial robots more and more perfect, more research is needed to make robots more perfectly integrated into the work.
