Abstract: The present invention relates to a drive unit for joint being arranged between two arm members of a manipulator of a robotic system, the drive unit being intended for the rotatory drive of the one arm member in relation to the other arm member, having a first drive module, which is to be connected to a first arm member by means of at least one connecting element in a force- and torque-transmitting manner, and having a second drive module, which is to be connected with a second arm member by means of at least one connecting element in a force- and torque-transmitting manner, in which the connecting elements are configured to cooperate with the arm members in radial direction with respect to the rotary axis of the drive unit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a drive unit for a joint being arranged between two arm members of a manipulator of a robotic system and for the rotatory drive of one arm member in relation to one other arm member, with a motor which drives a drive shaft, with an output element, which is connected with the one arm member and which is directly or indirectly set into rotation by means of the drive shaft, and with a circuit board, on which a sensor device for the drive as provided by the drive shaft and a sensor device for the output as provided by the output element are arranged.

Abstract: The invention relates to a robot system, to a corresponding method, and to a processing system, wherein, along a process line, which is formed by guide rails, or on a conveyor belt, objects or workpieces are optionally moved or transported on carrier devices having gripping elements. The robot arm removes the objects from the process line by pulling or pushing the objects from a plane or surface of the process line into a working chamber compliantly, i.e., in a non-rigid manner by means of force control, wherein the objects are positioned and oriented in the working chamber by means of guiding elements. After the processing of the objects in the working chamber, the objects are pushed or pulled back onto the process line by means of the robot arm. The process line can comprise passive, non-driven rollers or the like instead of an actively driven conveyor belt, wherein the robot arm nudges or pushes the objects in order to transport the objects.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a robotic system (1) having at least one robot arm which consists of a plurality of members/limbs (10), which are connected with each other by joints, in which the housing is configured to transmit the torques and forces, which are introduced into the member (10), onto a member (10) being adjacent thereto, and in which the housing is composed of at least two housing parts (12a,12b) being complementary in shape, which housing parts (12a,12b) are connected to each other in a manner allowing the transmission of torques and forces.
