  <Aims Applicant="Y" Label="Aims" Student="Y">
    <Content>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The unit aims to:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This course unit introduces industrial robot configuration, the mathematical methods used to define their movement, and the mechanical techniques required to describe their dynamical behaviour.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An industrial robot arm is an example of a mechatronic system; it combines the required mechanical structure, actuators, sensors and control to enable an end-effector to be moved from one position to another.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The influence of the materials and structures used in the design of the mechanical components of industrial robots will also be studied.&lt;/p&gt;</Content>
