Industrial robot selection is a decision-making process according to the needs of manufacturing. The right decision plays an important role in the production efficiency and success. The wrong choice makes it difficult to use the robot or the selected robot is not suitable for many planned production tasks. In the case of totally failed selection, the robot would be completely unusable in the company. The choice is complicated by the multiplicity of producers, as well as the fact that production tasks are very different. Due to the seriousness of the task, the robot manufacturers themselves have paid a lot of attention to the problem. As an example, Table 3.1 shows only a very small part of the potential producers and their production.

Different robot supplies have developed their systems for robot classification and preliminary selection [7-22]: Fanuc Robot Finder, Kuka Solution Database, Robot Investment, ABB Robot Selector, etc. These systems have grouped the robots by application field and have a lot of technical parameters of robots by which they are classified.<\/p>\n

For industrial robot selection two basic approaches are used.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n
      \n
    1. Selection based on work description<\/li>\n
    2. Selection based on IR classification criteria (selection tree approach).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      The first approach is a little more task-specific. In contrast, the second approach is more general and analyzes the company's production picture more comprehensively.<\/p>\n

      The first approach<\/strong> is based on the work to be done in the workplace and its description.<\/p>\n
