摘要

Industrial robot has a pivotable drive arm (1), with a toolhead (3) at the free end (2) of the arm on which is a tool (7). The tool is characterized by a joint (8) which when a given force on the toolhead is exceeded enables the toolhead to move into an alternative position from the nominal position (S) defined by a temporary position of the arm and the normal alignment of the toolhead on the arm. The toolhead with tool to manipulate said arm has koint which exerts force on the toolhead to enabls it to move from nominal to changed position.
